4/ Then the Taliban signed an agreement with the Trump Administration agreeing to refuse safe harbor to Al Qaeda if the Taliban came back into power. That's a big part of the reason the Trump Admin agreed to draw down to 2,500. — PolitiTweet.org

3/ And remember, for years the Taliban has been in control of over half of Afghanistan. So if the Taliban wanted to give Al Qaeda a safe haven, Al Qaeda would have had plenty of room to operate. The Taliban made a strategic decision to keep Al Qaeda at bay. — PolitiTweet.org

5/ Of course there are lots of reasons to believe the Taliban will ignore that agreement. There are elements of the Taliban that are still allied with Al Qaeda. But there are also good reasons why the Taliban would decide it isn't worth the trouble to let Al Qaeda reconstitute. — PolitiTweet.org
