From the link below:

Security experts in Kabul said the move could be a result of talks launched by the U.S. special representative Zalmay Khalilzad with the Taliban. Earlier this month Khalilzad met Taliban leaders in Qatar in an effort to find a way to end the 17-year-old war in Afghanistan.

"The Taliban’s co-founder and former second-in-command, Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, was released after high-level negotiations, three senior Taliban members told Reuters, speaking on the condition of anonymity. Mullah Abdul Samad Sani, another senior Taliban commander, was also released."

Trump made a deal with the Taliban.

What did the US government get in return for making the Taliban happy?

what did they get? can you not read and comprehend?

The deal required a peaceful US exit, citizens and military. Talks between taliban and afghan govt.

Once biden violated the deal all bets were off, US citizens are trapped (10,000 +), the taliban heavily armed with US weapons.

The best deals with terrorists are the ones with conditions that aren't enforceable.

Would Trump have ordered combat troops back into Afghanistan if he were faced with this current situation?

The Taliban agreed to leave the pipeline be. Was that part of the deal?

I'm pretty sure the article I posted does not list every part of the deal.

Good old Tucker.
His theory ??
Afghans went running back to the Taliban because they found out that men can wear dresses in America ??
Hilarious !!

If that were true, maybe they should move the whole Evangelical base to Afghanistan.
Problem solved !! Everybody happy !!
America can resume it's path to move to 2050, not 1950 !!
Eladar especially should move to Afghanistan. He'd be happy there.
They actually shoot people for having sex outside of marriage there !! 😆

You say that but they seem to be cooperating as if there is a deal. Why did the Taliban agree to protect the pipeline?

Do you seriously think they would cut off their nose to spite their face?

The Taliban sees themselves as the rightful government of Afghanistan.

That's what you Biden haters just aren't getting.

Why did the Taliban agree to protect the pipeline? That seems like a deal is being kept to me. They are our allies now. They just don't want to admit they made our former enemies our new terrorist allies.

Why did facebook and twitter let the Taliban communicate on their websites in their effort to take Kabul? Our government is helping the Taliban. It is obvious. We have a deal with them. Biden is keeping the trump deal with the Taliban.
