The U.S. has lost the Afghanistan war. Don’t let it botch the retreat

At best, those gains will be marginal. The United States is leaving not because 
the Afghan National Army is in a position to take control of a country it holds 
and is fully able to secure. Rather, the U.S. is leaving because it has proved 
to be impossible, at any price anyone wants to spend, to prevent the Taliban 
from controlling half that territory and from bringing horrifying violence to 
the rest.

This is why the United States is negotiating only with the Taliban, and not 
with the elected Afghan government it installed. (In fact, the Trump 
administration this week angrily withdrew US$160-million in funding to the 
government, on the eve of elections).
