Brother Khafee had mentioned the new F-16s were conditional upon us signing on their terms. With the induction process of Rafales being started across the red border, those shiny solas likely look very alluring. I am guessing the terms were related to what's coming to a head with the Iran plan. And the sudden positivity emanating from the Arab lands feels to me the agreement was very recently finalized. Pompeo's statement further adds to my suspicions.
In my view, if our involvement only brings in dollars and solas, we have lost already. But seeing as how eager the US is to leave Afghanistan behind, I would personally be satisfied with the Afghanistan handoff to us in return for cooperation on the plan.
