Anyone who believes that the taliban will keep their word that they’ll allow safe passage does not understand the situation. First, the Koran and shariah law allows them to lie to infidels. Second, in the late 1800s the British negotiated a “safe withdrawal “ from an city in Afghanistan that they occupied. Part of the deal was to leave their weapons behind. Well, they packed up their wagons with women and children and wounded and the surviving military formed up and they all marched away from the shelter of their fortress. Somewhere along the route to safety the Afghans attacked the British and killed many of the men, women and children and wounded in the group.
The Afghanistan Taliban is not to be believed or trusted. They only understand strength and that must be backed up superior firepower.
