*sigh*...the Taliban is a religious political movement. Many tribes in
Afghanistan are strongly allied with it. Not all. Most tribes have at
least a segment of the populace that are aligned with it. Some do not.
Within the groups that are allied, historically, with the Taliban,
there are people are that are more tightly tied to the values or
dictates of the leadership. There are many others that ally themselves
because it is expedient. They call themselves Taliban because that is
what the governing force in the area is. They may not be the most
politically forward thinking folks on the planet. But they may also be
people that are willing to turn to other opportunities if they are
presented as viable options. Those people are the moderate Taliban.
Those are the folks that Obama was talking about. You can believe that
they exist or not but the truth is that they are there.
