Prove it and I believe it, pic, video, etc.
So far it is just words (also, it is coming out of Afghani government), 157 killed and 42 wounded and none of Afghani soldiers were killed or wounded and that was just in 24 hours. 2 good to be true. It is must likely a PR.

But if it is true, Taliban start killing again, Taliban stop attacking because of the whole US-Taliban shi*-show…

that is an outright lie – no way! the yankee-twats disinformation services (part of cia) at work attempting to nullify the agreement that all troops of the morons shall be out latest 1st of may. and believe me, for pentagon, loyal member of the mic, it’s like swearing in church to withdraw from a profitable war.

Talibs can’t win. The ANA is huge now with 250k well trained members. Suicide attacks is all the talibs can do. It’s too late for them. They’re fukked! Every time there is an attack, the ANA goes in that village and literally drags out all young men to interrogate. Beat them into submission until they confess. Brutal reprisal interrogation and incarceration seems to be working.
