Indeed.
I realise that I was insufficiently precise when I said I oppose bombing by
the US, what I should have said was "bombing by itself".
BTW the Taliban has responded. CNN is a bit slow right now so you may want

A quote: "The Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has always chosen the path of
talks and reason to solve problems."
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
Talking, and cutting off hands.
Reason, and flogging people for flirting.
