    Seems that Gwynne Dyer thought similarly back in mid March:

      What does everyone think about the release of Mullah Baradar under Trump, co founder of the Taliban, and now apparently in charge?

      https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/aug/15/talibans-abdul-ghani-baradar-is-undisputed-victor-of-a-20-year-war

      The Trump administration had struck a deal with this guy where he agreed to make the Taliban more civil and less terroristic. In spite of the cluster fuck Biden has caused, this seems to be working, as the Taliban leadership held a press conference vowing to not seek retribution, to allow women more civil rights, including the right to attend school. In fact, if they follow through on all the things they said, Afghanistan could end up less like Iran and more like Saudi Arabia, relatively peaceful but a strict Islamic state.

      As Quirt would undoubtedly say, if not spell, colour me skeptical.

              I never listened to Ann Coulter before. Why start now. She will say whatever it takes to get eyes on. All about the benjamins.

                @mik She is a truly awful human being.

                Have you heard the joke about how liberals, when their children act up, threaten them that if they don't shape up and behave, Daddy will send Ann Coulter around to visit them in the night?

                    I have always thought of her as a hag. Her dislike of Trump and calling him out on this notwithstanding, I still consider her a hag.

                          No, but there is latin - 'twati'.

                            Actually, since they're presumably both feminine, it would probably be twatae.
