Taliban can not and will not win the conflict on the battlefield: Kerry
 [Khaama (Afghanistan)] The US Secretary State of John F. I was in Vietnam, you knowKerry Former Senator-for-Life from Massachussetts, self-defined war hero, speaker of French, owner of a lucky hat,conqueror of Cambodia, and current Secretary of State... has said the Talibs group in Afghanistan can not and will not be able to win the conflict on the battlefield.
... who used to be known in intelligence circles as The Most Evil Man in the Worldbut who now seems merely run-of-the-mill evil... and the Afghan government. He said the peace deal with Hekmatyar could be a model for reconciliation with the Taliban, insisting that the commanders of Hekmatyar must cease violence, cut ties with terrorist groups and accept the Afghan constitutions’s rights for women and minorities. "The message from every person here today to the Taliban would be: Take note," Kerry said, adding that the Taliban is still "trying to test the Afghan government’s resolve." Kerry further added that "There is a path toward an honorable end to the conflict that the Taliban have waged." However, alcohol has never solved anybody's problems. But then, neither has milk... he insisted that "It is a conflict they cannot and will not be won on the battlefield. A political settlement negotiated with the Afghan government is the only way to end the fighting, ensure lasting stability and achieve a full drawdown ultimately of international military forces, which is their goal."
