Send in the SEALS to capture all the Taliban leaders.
Hold them for ransom.
“Send in the SEALS to capture all the Taliban leaders.

That will not work. The Taliban will just wait for weak President to be elected then trade for them. Best solution is to execute on capture.
We need to go medieval with no take prisoner policy. They want to die for Islam lets help them.
I suspect at this point the “Taliban leaders” have American citizens between them and their bodyguards.
Biden and the Generals snafu’ed this operation up to the point where there are no doable options. Wish I could be more positive, but this is a cluster.
First of all, Delta is probably better at this type of operation.
You do not need to hold them for ransom. Once you gain control of the air space over Afghanistan you show them the drone videos of the family’s homes including the wives and children.
Either they submit or we destroy their entire village with a cruise missile strike.
Not a good idea.
They are great fighters but so are the Taliban.
Except the Seals would be outnumbered 1000-1.
Also it would take weeks to mobilize.
We don’t have the time.
