Hamid Karzai: “We will not see peace in Afghanistan. You will not see an end to the killing of your soldiers in Afghanistan.”

It is not my role necessarily to give the United States advice about what it should do or should not do somewhere else, but I ask you, whatever you do, do not take your eyes off Afghanistan.

I was taken aback. Who are these Taliban that a deal has been signed with? Why can't we find them? Who are their leaders?

Afghan President Hamid Karzai is promising to get tough on corruption and boost his security forces so that foreign troops can start going home.

The risks are that Afghanistan will go back into the hands of terrorists, into chaos, into despair. And we are not going to allow that.
