Al-Qaeda Praises Afghan Taliban ‘Victory’ over U.S. As Afghanistan Releases Hundreds of Taliban Prisoners Unconditionally

14

This is bad all around. Rewarding Islamic terrorism. Taliban was the most prolific and deadliest group during Ramadan this year. And yet the Afghan government released 490 Taliban (The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan) fighters and commanders from its prisons earlier this month, as part of a goodwill gesture to persuade the militant group to come to the table for direct talks with the Ashraf Ghani-led administration.

FOX: “The Taliban prisoners were released unconditionally. They are not required to denounce the Taliban or promise to quit the fight against the Afghan government. Historically, Taliban prisoners who have been freed from Afghan prisons have returned to the battlefield,” said Bill Roggio, a Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies. “The Taliban has not acknowledged the release of its prisoners. It has been unmoved by such gestures in the past, and are likely to ignore the latest.”

Furthermore, the Taliban continues to dismiss Ghani’s government which it deems “illegitimate” and a “stooge of the West,” even despite the President’s announcement that the prisoner release was intended to “persuade the resurgent group to engage in intra-Afghan dialogue to end the conflict through diplomatic settlement.”

A total of 887 prisoners will be set free during the observance of the Islamic holiday Eid al Fitr, according to National Security Advisor Hamdullah Mohib.

I’m sure they will all be at our door soon shouting, “Mama
Merkel, let us in!” So the mission was a complete success.

This is only a problem
– if these criminals project violence outside Afghani borders
– otherwise, Afghani Islamists who release Islamist criminals
– will wreck their own country
– they are simply experiencing the negative consequences of their own actions
– criminals do that all the time
– and some learn from that, while others don’t

During WWII and Korean War few prisoners were taken! Most of the time they were executed immediately if the truth were known! My uncle told me in the Philippines they only took one Japanese prisoner during the war, because he spoke English fluently!

Vast numbers of German Wehrmacht soldiers surrendered during WW2, the SS not so much, because they knew they wouldn’t be forgiven — especially anywhere on the Eastern front.
The forces of Imperial Japan rarely surrendered and many banazi charges, some futile, were the result of this policy.
PRC POW’s mounted a revolt at a POW compound during the Korean War — it had to be put down w/force.

Afghanistan has vast natural resources that have fallen into the hands of the Chinese who want to protect their investments.Perhaps,there is an area that is of mutual benefit to the US and China.After all the Chinese know how to handle Muslims. They simply eradicate or “re-educate” them.

this is disgraceful. We are giving them hundreds of millions of dollars and all they are doing is slapping us in the face. I know the military contractors are making oodles and oodles of money and the people in Congress are getting their money under the table but, it’s about time to take the handcuffs off of our troops and end this charade once and for all.
