“War is deceit,” said Muhammad (Bukhari 4.52.268). The “Palestinians” are past masters at this sort of thing. And the Taliban is learning.
“Taliban coercing, beating locals to allege civilian deaths in Kunduz operations,” Khaama Press, March 23, 2019 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
A day after Afghan armed forces inflicted heavy casualties on Taliban militants in Kunduz, reports emerging from the province suggest that the fighters of Taliban are coercing and beating local residents to allege civilian casualties during the operations.
A Resolute Support spokeswoman SFC Debra Richardson said “There are multiple Afghan reports from the area of the Taliban coercing and beating local Afghan civilians to allege civilians were killed. We have seen this type of reporting in other places as the Taliban attempt to hide their losses by accusing ANDSF and coalition of causing civilians casualties.”
Richardson further added “We are aware of non-combatant casualty claims from those airstrikes. We take all claims seriously and investigate every credible allegation; we review every mission to learn, adapt and improve. We maintain the right to engage the enemy in self-defense and we take every measure to prevent civilian casualties, even as the Taliban intentionally hide behind women and children. We will continue to judiciously and carefully deliver the military pressure necessary to enable a political solution here.”…

“Palestinians” learned from the best with this regard: the Soviets.

From Afghanistan to Libya, from the Balkans to Syria, US is always on the side of jihadists, faithfully training them, arming them, funding them and supporting them!
Osama Bin-Laden was America’s hero, before he turned its most wanted!

Note that christianblood has *nothing* critical to say about the Taliban–instead he is spamming this video again. Never mind that Zbigniew Brzezinski had been out of the public eye for decades before his death in 2017.

Taliban is made in the US!

What a load of claptrap. christianblood has tried this before–claiming that it is not Muslims who wage violent Jihad, but instead Americans and Jews.

I personally know Muslims (or perhaps they are former Muslims) who despise the Taliban and Al Qaeda, due to things that happened to their friends, their relatives and to their tribe. They are filled with deep resentment against the Taliban. However, it is difficult to know which side is which sometimes.
The Taliban and Al Qaeda are however, real Muslims, and they know that whatever evil deeds they do ‘in the way of Allah’ are justified by Islam.
We must continue our work of deprogramming Muslims at every opportunity, whether or not we are perfectly informed. Each of us should master a small area of study where something in Islam is an error or anomaly and bring it to the attention of Muslims. For instance, the sun sets in a muddy spring (K.18.86). We can destroy Islam a piece at a time.

As we speak, U$ is footing 1 Billion taxpayer dollars to give new missiles to its Saudi=ISIS allies! America Is The Eternal Ally Of Islamic Jihadists!

I checked out this site and it is *very* anti-American and anti-Israeli. It is very pro-“Palestinian” and even castigates the US for defending against Somali pirates. It mendaciously implies that the NZ Mosque shooting was done by New Zealand troops. Nasty stuff…

Well those brutal and violent Taliban savages of the characters that some officials of a few Western countries hope to have genuine productive “peace talks’ with ? Good luck to that fantasy.
Also, one thing is for sure, that is even when attempting to engage on “peace talks” with Taliban it would be best not to be naïve about them and take at face value anything that they might say or promise. To just “give trust away” to those Islamic characters who compose the Taliban would be foolishness and folly. For when trying to have genuine negotiations with the them ,it need to be kept in mind that there is an Islamic doctrine called TAQIYYA This is the Muslim dogma the lying and deception are good things to do, if and as long as the lies and deceit are done for the advancement of Islam.
For the deceptive and disingenuous Taliban have proven many times over, by their own actions, that they are a ruthless, brutal vicious gang of thugs with no honor. So in any kind of “dialogue” the Taliban will most likely speak the truth only when it happened to suite them. The rest of the time they will be speaking half-truths and also be outright lying. Likewise, the Taliban will keep their word in anything that they may happen to promise only and long as in fits into their agenda and no longer. So before engaging of the foolishness of attempting to have genuine “talks for a peace alliance” with Taliban, the officials of the current government would do well to heed the wisdom of Sun Tzu found in THE ART OF WAR. For it instructs “We cannot enter into an alliance neighboring’s princes, until we are acquainted with their designs.” To put this in a more updated and current way, it may be said that “We cannot enter into a peace alliance with the Taliban until we know the actual intentions and real schemes.”
Furthermore, if engaging in “peace talks” with Taliban it would be very naïve to take at face value anything that the Taliban might promise. For example, the Taliban might say that they will respect the rights of women and girls, for they ,many times, employ the Islamic doctrine of Taqiyya In those so called “negotiations” with officials of the West .Taaqyia ids the Islamic teaching that lying and deceit
So it may be nothing but foolishness and folly to even try to have worthwhile constructive peace discussions with lying brutal cruel men who make up the Taliban . For having a genuine practical peace compromise with Taliban might be impossible
Aa the former US President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, had well-spoken when he said “There has never been – there never can be – successful compromise between good and evil.”.

Yes–the idea of “peace talks” with the Taliban is absurd.
