We have just signed a “Peace Agreement” with the Taliban. It is highly likely that the Taliban will use this “peace”, however long it lasts, to regroup, reorganize, rearm, and recover. The meaning of “Peace Agreement” has a very different connotation with Muslims… especially when dealing with “infidels” (us). Google “taqiyya.”
“As usual, for the complete truth, one must turn to scholarly books written in Arabic. According to Dr. Sami Mukaram, an Islamic studies professor specializing in taqiyya, and author of the only academic book exclusively devoted to it, ‘Taqiyya in order to deceive the enemy is permissible.’ https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/6587/carson-taqiyya-dissimulation
In the history of Islam, periods of peace have been extremely brief. They are unable to effect domestic peace within their sovereign boundaries. They are unable to effect peace within their religious tenets.
Islamic societies DO NOT respond to democracy. The Geneva Conventions are merely amusing.

On 07NOV18, I submitted the following to the Lake Martin Forum:
“Therefore, my premise is that we should meet their expectations when we strike preemptively or in retaliation for the harboring and or exporting of terrorism. If they ignore our diplomatic warning… we should exact selective and meaningful destruction of infrastructure… while avoiding carnage.
“Our military strategy should be - in the middle of the night - to simultaneously drop EVERY significant bridge (halt all motorized transportation) and simultaneously demolish EVERY power station and switchyard (turn off utilities). This aerial/cruise missile campaign MUST be followed by dead silence on our part. No occupation… no nation building. ISLAM UNDERSTANDS THIS PERFECTLY. I predict we would have to do this only once (do you remember Muammar Gaddafi?)”

We have given the Taliban the carrot. We have “walked softly.” They should be reminded that we also have a “big stick.” Promise them “no boots on the ground”… just falling bridges and darkness… followed by abject silence.
We may not be able to contain them, but we can keep them in the Stone Age. We should make it very profitable for them to become civilized. They need to respect boundaries.
