S. Losses. They admitted to an attack in kabul that killed one of our great great soldiers and 11 other people if they cannot agree to a ceasefire during these very important peace talks the probably dont have the power to negotiate a meaningful agreement anyway the us president called off the peace dialogue this will lead to more losses to the u. S. His credibility will be affected his anti peace stance will be exposed to the world losses to lives in assets will increase the president s handling of talks with the taliban which could have ended americas 18 years of mi
