With less than four days to go before peace talks are to begin in Afghanistan between that nation's authorities and the Taliban insurgency, things are not looking promising.
Taliban fighters are stepping up attacks on Afghan security forces. American warplanes are counterattacking. And a prisoner exchange that was to take place before those intra-Afghan talks start is being rejected by Afghan President Ashraf Ghani.

Not holding my breath. As a two time Afghanistan veteran I do want to see my brothers and sisters in uniform finally leave that country for good. However, I'm not to optimistic about the way the leaders are going about it. There will be growing pains either way, but I don't trust they will keep their word and thus we will have to go back. I know it's a little different in the case of Iraq but the fact that we went back there says something.
