The Taleban are playing out a deadly farce
thetimes.co.uk

" But for all the US emphasis on deliberation, there is no disguising its determination to make a rapid and impressive first move.

In Kabul, by contrast, the Taleban are playing out a farce that takes no measure of this momentum. They are acting, under the cover of a grand Shura of clerics, as though there were time in hand and bargains to be struck. Nothing could better illustrate the intellectual and moral isolation of this cruel and obscurantist regime than its apparent inability to comprehend the enormity of the outrage that has been committed, or the deadly force of the express train that is in consequence bearing down upon their land.

US planes land in Uzbeistan , ex-Soviet bases for possible Afghan attack
asia.dailynews.yahoo.com

Interesting situation for the Soviets...there is very
little infrastructure in these locations to support
these kinds of opps ...but here we are now
positioning in the north.

It's so remote....

On one hand they may not want our influence ther , and the
possibility of an extended stay ....and on the other hand
after all is said and done , we leave , and leave them with
whatever situations that are not resolved . Looks
like they may be thinking --->much will be resoved.

And there are still generals that haven't forgotten our
earlier contribution to their own defeat .

Tragedy and fate ...things are moving ahead rapidly
and make strange aliances .
