Petreaus: NATO Facilitated Safe Passage of Taliban

"The commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan says NATO has facilitated the safe passage of Taliban leaders to Kabul for talks with the Afghan government"

Cjunk draws the clear distinction between Taliban Jack's bankrupt idea and what is currently happening.

And from the BBC:

"Afghanistan is facing its bloodiest year since the US-led invasion of 2001.

During his address to a defence think tank, Gen Petraeus said there were "several ongoing initiatives" to try to get the Taliban to the negotiating table"

"Painting an upbeat picture, Gen Petraeus also said Kabul was now a secure place to live; education and literacy had surged; and businesses were thriving while people were returning to Afghanistan."

Or just another example of hudna?
