How could it not have come to this .. Obama ready to accept the Taliban as part of Afghanistan’s rule .. even to relegating a portion of the country to them.
He must be planning some diplomatic talks with them by now.. don’t you think?
Though aides stress that the president’s final decision on any changes is still at least two weeks away, the emerging thinking suggests that he would be very unlikely to favor a large military increase of the kind being advocated by the top U.S. commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley McChrystal…
Obama’s developing strategy on the Taliban will “not tolerate their return to power,” the senior official said in an interview with The Associated Press. But the U.S. would fight only to keep the Taliban from retaking control of Afghanistan’s central government — something it is now far from being capable of — and from giving renewed sanctuary in Afghanistan to al-Qaida, the official said…
Bowing to the reality that the Taliban is too ingrained in Afghanistan’s culture to be entirely defeated, the administration is prepared, as it has been for some time, to accept some Taliban role in parts of Afghanistan, the official said. That could mean paving the way for Taliban members willing to renounce violence to participate in a central government — though there has been little receptiveness to this among the Taliban. It might even mean ceding some regions of the country to the Taliban…
Obama kept returning to one question for his advisers: Who is our adversary? the official said.
Obama has no idea who our adversary is?
Oh .. we are in great hands with this commander in chief .. and the first thought is for our troops over there .. and those who have given their lives and have put their lives on the line to fight this menace to our security and it is impossible to imagine any true American wishing to legitimize those who would do whatever they must to see us dead … much less the person sitting in the Oval Office of our White House.
Yet … it is because of who it is sitting in that Oval Office that you just knew it had to come to this.
America … we are surely on our knees.
May God somehow lift us up again… in spite of that person sitting in the White House.
