People want her. People get what they want. The things are too muddy to summerize it. She may or may not be right.
But people wnat her and thanks to their democratic rights they might have her.

US Gen. Miller Speaks on Taliban’s Resumed Attacks
https://tolonews.com/afghanistan/afghan-forces-taliban-face-17-provinces-after-peace-deal
Miller says foreign forces will continue to defend the Afghan troops, but for the plan to work the Taliban needs to reduce violence.
Only two days after the United States and the Taliban in Doha signed an agreement intended to bring peace to Afghanistan and to kick start the intra-Afghan negotiations, the Taliban on Monday in a surprising move announced that the group is resuming its military operations against the Afghan National Security and Defense Forces (ANDSF). But the Taliban’s announcement to resume violence has been met with reactions from the UN mission in Afghanistan and the European Union (EU).
He said there is a need for the Taliban to lower violence in Afghanistan “otherwise, it’s hard to have an agreement.”
The Taliban in a letter on Monday asked their fighters to resume their attacks on the Afghan government forces, but not to attack international troops as part of a deal they signed with the United States.
“The period of reduction in violence across Afghanistan was an important period for the Afghan people,” Miller said. “It’s a start for peace pathway and what I would say is that all sides--but especially the military of all sides--have obligations to make sure that pathway is achievable. We have shown restraint with the Afghan security forces and we have shown restraint because we know that’s the will of the Afghan people.”
He added: “The Taliban have obligations and we need them to live up to their obligations and if they don’t, we have the necessary responses.”
In response to a question if the Taliban attacks Afghan forces, will they have the support of their foreign counterparts, Miller said: “Yes, we will send air support when they (Afghan forces) need it… That support continues and we will continue to defend the Afghan security forces.”
Meanwhile, Yasin Zia, the deputy minister of defense, said the Taliban will be responded to if they violate the agreement.
“The Afghan Defense and Security Forces are ready defensively and if the Taliban violates their obligations they will be responded to hardly,” Zia said.

Taliban’s Decision to Resume Violence Sparks Intl Criticism
Only two days after the United States and the Taliban in Doha signed an agreement intended to bring peace to Afghanistan and to kick start the intra-Afghan negotiations, the Taliban on Monday in a surprising move announced that the group is resuming its military operations against the Afghan National Security and Defense Forces (ANDSF). But the Taliban’s announcement to resume violence has been met with reactions from the UN mission in Afghanistan and the European Union (EU).
The United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) on Tuesday called for a continued reduction in violence plan to help build an environment favorable for the start of intra-Afghan talks.
“Following the Taliban’s reported resumption of military operations, the UN calls for continued reduced violence to maintain and enhance an environment conducive to the start of intra-Afghan negotiations, which should lead to a permanent ceasefire and a lasting political settlement,” UNAMA tweeted.
Roland Kobia, EU Special Envoy for Afghanistan, also said that the Taliban’s announcement of the resumption of violence is against the spirit of the peace deal signed between the United States and the Taliban in Doha.
“If the announcement of resumption of violence by Taliban is verified, this is against the spirit of the agreement just signed in Doha. This is not the time for posturing, but the phase to build trust and move forward in a constructive manner,” Kobia tweeted.
Meanwhile, Afghan citizens said that if the recent deal signed between the US and the Taliban is not able to prevent further escalation of violence, then the deal may not prove strong enough to bring long-term peace to the country.
Meanwhile, Afghan president Ashraf Ghani also criticized the Taliban for continuing attacks on the Afghan security forces, saying there is no space for the Taliban to fight while they have agreed to make peace with foreigners.
“They accepted to make peace with the foreigners, then what is the meaning of jihad?” asked Ghani, adding: “The killing of Afghans is a crime.”
Ordinary Afghans have also questioned the Taliban’s decision to continue fighting the Afghan security forces under the name of "jihad."
“We cannot call it jihad,” said a tribal elder in Uruzgan province, adding: “If they (the Taliban) want to fight a war, first they should fight Pakistan.”
“The Taliban should agree on a ceasefire instead of a reduction in violence. I call on the president and the chief executive to exchange (prisoners with) the Taliban and avoid making further problems for Afghanistan,” said Ahmad Khan Muslim, a tribal elder in Oruzgan.
Meanwhile, sources close to the Taliban have said that the decision to resume operations against Afghan forces were made following remarks by President Ashraf Ghani on the issue of Taliban prisoners.
“The honorable president in his remarks said that they will not release Taliban prisoners, so this was a kind of reaction from the Taliban against the government,” said Mawlana Jalaluddin Shinwari, former attorney general during the Taliban regime.

Stupid Ashraf Ghani. He his already moving to sabotage the deal. Instead of making demands on the IEA, he needs to honor the deal and release the prisoner's. I think the Talibs are reacting to his provocations.
