Bin Laden and Z would hate the idea, too. Think about the internal trouble it would cause Al Qaeda if we talked to Omar.

Our/my military family is stuck in Omar's sandbox and he is sending them home feet first. I don't give a damn what happens to Afghanistan, sorry about the ladies there that will have to live like cattle.

But Afghans are exporting jihadists and opiates to us here in America and killing our families here. Something has got to give, their country is too primitive, illiterate, anarchaic and corrupt to ever govern or even pacify.

We either face up to generations of garrisoning them and haggling with the latest mayor of Kabul or find a new path. Viet Nam was really quite simple compared to this mess.

I don't need to see any more American dead and vacillating Obama's to know that American willpower will go away without progress. Our military can offer many effective solutions that will drive the enemy to the table but we need a dialogue to get to a political solution and end-game.
