Intriguing UK newspaper headlines.
London Times headline today: : "Talks with Taleban the best prospect".
London Telegraph headline today: "Cheney escapes Taliban suicide attack on base". The Taliban claimed that it was an assassination attempt on the US vice president.
IMO: From those headlines you could certainly argue that the Taliban are at least trying to be helpful. A lot of people in the West do not care much for Cheney and that was nearly one "problem solved".. Not necessarily a wry joke. The mysterious "Middle East" or as it might be called from further round the globe the "Near West" is often Byzantine in its complexities. Well it is near the old Byzantium, so you would expect that.
