BBC News: Reports on the co-ordinated attacks by the Taliban on various locations in Kabul, the Capitol of Afghanistan, and other Afghan Provinces. This does recall the attacks by the Viet Cong on US Forces in Southern Vietnam in 1968, that lead to the downfall of a President. The mistake the NATO Allies have done is to set out a timetable for withdrawal, there is no reason for the Taliban to have serious talks with the Western powers, once they leave they can declare victory and start to hang their opposition, the West has to make it clear that it will leave enough forces in Afghanistan tot prevent the Taliban taking over, or what is the point of losing good and brave Soldiers for nothing in the end.
