The Fog of Peace
Abstract
Afghanistan policy, like Vietnam policy before it, has taken on a life of its own, impervious to ground truth. The
simple reality is that "peace talks" with the Taliban have no chance whatever of a positive outcome from the
perspective of U.S. policy. Just as it did in Vietnam, the United States has been fighting the wrong war in Afghanistan
with the wrong strategy from the very beginning.
