Afghanistan's Neville Chamberlain

What's wrong with this picture.......

Afghan President Hamid Karzai said the United States must reduce the visibility and intensity of its military operations, especially night raids that fuel anti-American sentiment and could embolden Taliban insurgents.Karzai's remarks in an interview Saturday with The Washington Post come as the international military coalition has stepped up pressure on insurgents at the same time that the president has set up a peace council in hopes of reconciling with the top echelon of the Taliban.
"The time has come to reduce military operations," Karzai said in the interview. "The time has come to reduce the presence of, you know, boots in Afghanistan ... to reduce the intrusiveness into the daily Afghan life."
Karzai also said he met with one or two "very high" level Taliban leaders about three months ago, but described a peace process in its initial stages -- one that amounts to little more than "the exchange of desires for peace." He said, however, that he believes Taliban leader Mullah Omar has been informed of his discussions.
He said the Taliban share his feeling that the nine-year-old war has taken too high a toll on the people of Afghanistan.

 So let's see....... Afghanistan has an admitted bipolar president who has held meetings with the enemy and regularly displays lapses of common sense and good judgment. And now the man, having met once again with the enemy (the Taliban) he wants th US to basically back off and back down and turn it all over to his gracious diplomacy and intelligence.

The Taliban, host to Osama Bin Ladin and arch rivals to Al Qaeda, were chased to ground and literally run out of Afghanistan over eight years ago. The problem is, we didn't finish the job. We allowed them to simply step over the border into Pakistan, where they have remained. Pakistan, where to this day they remain in collusion with Pakistani Muslims.

And yet we in America are supposed to listen to the counsel of a man who is at best a mental incompetent and at worst a collaborator?

All we need now? Is a video of Karzai, wearing his blanket, carrying his staff, while leading his goat down out of the mountains and waving his signed treaty with the Taliban.
