I can't help having a nagging feeling that the Taliban might be up to something.

I agree, but what they are up to is saving their sorry a$$es. The non talibans Afghans will kill them when they find them. No court or counsel needed.

Have faith in your God, family, country, and the men and women in our armed forces . . . we will prevail!

But watch the american politicians closely, they are the most dangerous.
