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

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

6/ So now the U.S. must put in place monitoring and counter-terrorism capabilities to track and target Al Qaeda activity in the region. FWIW Al Qaeda affiliates in Yemen and Africa are much stronger than Al Qaeda in Afghanistan and we keep them at bay without ground troops. — PolitiTweet.org
