KABUL, Afghanistan — The United States and Afghanistan have reached an impasse in their talks over the role that American forces will play here beyond next year, officials from both countries say, raising the distinct possibility of a total withdrawal — an outcome that the Pentagon’s top military commanders dismissed just months ago.

American officials say they are preparing to suspend negotiations absent a breakthrough in the coming weeks, and a senior administration official said talk of resuming them with President Hamid Karzai’s successor, who will be chosen in elections set for next April, is, “frankly, not very likely.”

“The time to conclude for us is now,” the administration official said on Friday. In the absence of a deal, “this fall, we are going to have to make plans for the future accordingly.”

Long past time to get out of that shithole.

I will still see it as sad when the entire place collapses back into the stone age when Nato withdraws.

So I will avoid saying "I told you so".

Why avoid it? 'Murica will never learn if you don't rub its nose in the shit it leaves behind. It seems reviewing recent history and our failures hasn't worked. Maybe shaming will.

Course in a later thread you'll go on about how the parties switched in the 60's. Which is it? War since the 20's or a switch?
