Was this an accident?

Either way, the Taliban will see it as a payback “victory”.

Quite a coincidence!

For those who actually believe in such. For others of us, something perhaps more sinister is the explanation...

Yes, Obama’s bravado, bragging and his administration’s leaking of information best kept secret is probably responsible for this.

Yep. I really wouldn’t be surprised if this was the Administration’s way of “reaching out” to the Taliban.

Lord have mercy. If this is true, it’s even more tragic. I don’t want to imagine what Al Qaeda propagandists are going to do with this.
