YOU DON’T SAY: Taliban Still Intent on Ruling Afghanistan After ‘Peaceful’ Message to U.S. “Press accounts of the letter reported it as a Taliban extension for peace. But the reality is there is nothing new in this letter. The Taliban has consistently stated over the past decade that it does not seek to share power with the Afghan government, and the only peace possible begins with the U.S. abandoning the country.”

Well, the press gets a lot of stuff wrong.
