Karzai Accuses U.S. of Taliban Collusion as Hagel Visits
Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel was greeted on his first visit to Afghanistan since taking office by suicide bombs, threats and Afghan President Hamid Karzai’s accusation that the U.S. is colluding with the Taliban.
As Hagel prepared to leave a U.S. military compound in Kabul on March 9, a Taliban suicide bomber blew himself up outside the Ministry of Defense, and another suicide bomb detonated in Khost province. Yesterday, Karzai said that those attacks, which together killed 19 people, aided U.S. goals. A joint Hagel-Karzai press conference at the presidential palace was canceled for what Pentagon officials said were security reasons.
While the Taliban said the attacks were aimed at sending a message to Hagel that the insurgents remain a powerful force, Karzai said in a speech yesterday that the U.S. is holding peace talks with the radical Islamists and the bombs were in the “service of...

... and even the crowd behind the goal know better than to claim an offside call in their own half.

we guard the poppy fields and aren't in collusion? would find that harder to believe. corruption begets corruption. "ahh, if them muslms were as rightoues and honest as us westerners".... the perfect mindset for world wore and perpetual adventures. who needs justification, or well-informed decisions when you have whole millions to judge preemptively? and who cares how many Christians of the ME fall into the hands of the jhd's as long as we remain faithful to our patriotic call to love our patriotism more than reality?
case in point..... many muslms of Mali actually have respect for Christians. now outside jhd's are coming and taking over. yep, we'll just say, "them dum muslms" and never recognize a world-wide political movement.

Chris, what Winston Churchhill had to say about the Afganis.
Winston Churchill wrote: ...when they fight among themselves, bear little malice, and the combatants not infrequently make friends over the corpses of their comrades or suspend operations for a festival or a horse race. At the end of the contest cordial relations are at once re-established. And yet so full of contradictions is their character, that all this is without prejudice to what has been written of their family vendettas and private blood feuds. Their system of ethics, which regards treachery and violence as virtues rather than vices, has produced a code of honour so strange and inconsistent, that it is incomprehensible to a logical mind. I have been told that if a white man could grasp it fully, and were to understand their mental impulses -- if he knew, when it was their honour to stand by him, and when it was their honour to betray him; when they were bound to protect and when to kill him--he might, by judging his times and opportunities, pass safely from one end of the mountains to the other....

"...the US is having peace talks with the Islamists." How foolish for our government to continue believing that there will ever be peace with these people. The Koran says convert or kill...period. No unlike Palastine where the issue isn't land, buy rather the very existance of Israel.
