Trump envoy is selling out Afghanistan in Taliban peace talks: senior Afghan official

A top Afghan government official on Thursday blasted the Trump administration's peace talks with the Taliban, accusing a U.S. presidential envoy of shutting out the Kabul government and betraying the trust of a close ally.

"We don't know what's going on. We don't have the kind of transparency that we should have," Hamdullah Mohib, Afghan national security adviser, told reporters during a visit to Washington.

Asked if President Donald Trump's envoy for reconciliation in Afghanistan, Zalmay Khalilzad, was consulting the Afghan government on his talks with the Taliban insurgents, Mohib said: "No. We get bits and pieces of information."

He added: "The last people to find out are us."

COMMENT:-

A VERY seniour White House person, who agreed to comment off the record and anonymously, is reported to have responded

"Who the *** do those *** Afghananiggers *** think they *** well are? I'll *** well tell them what the *** to do and they'll *** well do it or else Ill *** them over so much that they'll never *** recover.".

I don't know if that is true or not, but it doesn't appear to be out of character.

Trump doesn't want the US to have troops in a nation that's next door to Russia

Because Putin doesn't want the US to have troops in a nation that's next door to Russia

I don't know why don't you explain what your position was when Obama wanted to get out of Iraq? You hypocritical cons are beyond reason.

You con. You are about as libertarian as Trump is gay.

No...you must be mistaken. You're must be talking to someone else, because your comment about me being for the Iraq war doesn't make sense, because I'm not. Good to see such a warmonger in you though.

How am I a warmonger? Do tell with your clueless comments. :lamo You however, have been on record complaining about ANYTHING obama.

Wrong again. Keep up your warmongering ways....what unit do you serve in? Maybe we've run into each other, and I'll know that you put more behind being a warmonger than other people's lives.

You are making no sense, please show my "warmonger" comments.

By your obvious butthurt over me saying we've been in Afghanistan long enough and for calling out another person who thinks we should be there in perpetuity.

Re: Trump envoy is selling out Afghanistan in Taliban peace talks: senior Afghan official

I accept your surrender

Lol...didn't happen. Now how you going to pay for having a permanent force in Afghanistan, what is hoped to be accomplished, how many lives are enough to support your paranoid neo-McCarthyist ideology?

The same way we pay for it now

The same thing it has

How many do you have?

Yeah...we go in debt. At some point it's going to be a problem. Also, we were in Afghanistan before to fight the Russians. It ended up funding and training Bin Laden and the Taliban...how'd that work out for us? Your position is clown shoes.

It's funny to read a wall supporter worrying about debt.

And now falling back on a flawed point. The wall pays for itself. So pathetic.
