You know it's a bit more complicated than that.

I'll bite. How?

 

[GOTWA]

The Taliban that have been negotiating a peace deal, vying for a spot in the Afghan government, don't speak for every TB fighter. Different groups have different priorities and beliefs. Then you have influence of other insurgent groups. IOT have a true peace deal, the Taliban need to start controlling the non-compliant actors.

ETA: it's still tribal, afterall.

I won't even buy rice from Pakistan.

I won't even buy rice from Pakistan.

Nor would I, Brother. They don't have anything I would ever want or need for that matter. If they disappeared from the map tonight, it wouldn't bother me a bit.

I feel ya there, dude. When I had to do backstop at West Point one summer several years ago, I had every intention of buying a USMA West Point hoodie to add to my collection. Then I saw the “Made in Pakistan” tag.

I still don’t have a USMA West Point hoodie in my collection.

I'm always torn if I should read these articles and add revenue though clicks, or just avoid...
