The Taliban said more Americans would die after Trump said he was canceling a secret Camp David meeting aimed at ending America's longest war.

The Taliban said more U.S. troops would die in the wake of President Donald Trump canceling a secret Camp David meeting with the militant group to end America's longest war. Monday morning, an American Special Forces soldier was killed in Afghanistan.

The scuttled meeting could have potentially finalized months of negotiations between American officials and Taliban leaders in the Qatari capital of Doha. If signed, the arrangement would have seen the Pentagon pull more than 5,000 troops from Afghanistan ahead of the 2020 presidential elections. Zalmay Khalilzad, the U.S. special representative for Afghanistan's peace process, said the two parties had"reached an agreement in principle," ahead of the Camp David meeting.

The withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan has prompted concern among U.S. military commanders and some members of Congress, who fear the country could return to conditions conducive for another September 11-style attack on the West. Those concerns have grown over the years as the Islamic State in Afghanistan, known as Islamic State Khorasan, has gained a foothold in the region while al-Qaeda remains resilient.

At least four reports from the United Nations Security Council since July 2018 underscores the ongoing relationship between the Taliban and al-Qaeda.from July said al-Qaeda"considers Afghanistan a continuing safe haven for its leadership, relying on its long-standing and strong relationship with the Taliban leadership. [Its]"members continue to function routinely as military and religious instructors for the Taliban.

We have been serving as policemen in Afghanistan, and that was not meant to be the job of our Great Soldiers, the finest on earth. Over the last four days, we have been hitting our Enemy harder than at any time in the last ten years!After the peace deal fell apart, Trump tweeted,"Over the last four days, we have been hitting our Enemy harder than at any time in the last ten years." The statement echos former President Barack Obama's surge of U.S.

While it's unclear if and when American and Taliban officials will resume negotiations, Russia urged both sides to restart the peace talks.

See, this is why the media is the enemy of the people. There are NO details whatsoever, only that a soldier died. Newsweek then writes and article that specifically blames Trump and a specific meeting being cancelled as the cause of death. You people are incapable of honor.
