1. A snippet

"Some glimmers of sanity are showing in Washington, if not in London. Suddenly it is "time to negotiate with the Taliban", as if this were unthinkable before. There is talk of an "Iraqi-style surge", of somehow separating Taliban from al-Qaida, of good Taliban and bad Taliban, of decapitating the Taliban's extremist leadership with drone bombers."
