    Pompeo brags that the US has killed “over 1,000 Taliban” in just the last 10 days, but of course the Taliban are the aggressors in this situation

        And as always, you can assume that a large percentage of those killed were not actually “Taliban”

        dude if u really believe 9/11 (with all due respect to the victims) was carried out by 19 highjokers with box-cutters, a few trained on single engine cessna planes they couldn't even land. wow those 19 highjokers were just doing wat they were told, they were victims too of 9/11.

        Even by Vietnam standards, that's abysmally low. And ignores that in doing so they've increased the recruits for the Taliban by 3 times that number.

        That information was made possible on a TV show through the generous advertising support of Chevron who has oil and gas interests that needs to be secured and never publicly questioned.

        So, are we back to the era of "body counts"? "Free-fire zones", even? Which incidentally would explain some of the recent SEAL scandals.

        i have serious political disagreements with how the Taliban governed Afghanistan. however i must commend them when under they're rule opium productions fell to 5%. after the US invasion & occupation it shot up to 88%. im sure it had no role wit America's atrocious opioids crisis

        That's true. The Taliban wiped out the opium crop. Opium has now flourished under the new US-backed Afghan govt, with much of that opium making it out West.

        The Taliban has killed 10 Americans this year *in their own country* and yet THEY are somehow the aggressors who are sabotaging a peace deal! The arrogance of Pompeo and the US government knows no limits.

        This kind of statement by the head of US diplomacy is pathetic. Pompeo is setting America back.

        For those of you who are oldsters like me you'll recall the weekly news reports of how many "VietCong" & North Vietnamese were being killed in comparison to our American boys. It was a lot.

        Didn't expect you, of all people, to highlight such an excellent justification for the troops to stay on in Afghanistan.
