protect his identity. at now we in afghanistan. i am hiding in my friend s house . two or three times the taliban came in asked me outside my door . i wish i didn t work with the united states. to process all of these claims, if people can get to th airport, the state department says it is urging what he calls consular staff to process all o this. we know yesterday there we re about 20 of those officials working at the airport. it s unclear how many more are going to be there over the course of the next few days. adam boler has twice travele to the united states to the middle east to meet with the taliban. adam, it is great to have you o the show in you have some great insight for is here. i m fascinated because you say you ve generally found what you were talking in negotiating wit
