Diplomatic talks with the Taliban??

This is an NY Times article concerning President Obama possibly changing the policy with the Taliban, and resorting to Diplomatic Talks to further "Consolidate" the country.

Personally, I'm all for diplomacy, but I wonder is that even possible at this point? especially given that the US in one aggressive strike, took out the leader of the Taliban regime.

If it gets the troops home, then why not?


I just sincerely have doubts as to this new approach.

Only Time will tell
