"Humbled US" headline from Times of India. They point out that Obama caved when the Taliban refused to meet the pre-conditions our illustrious president had set for the talks to begin. Any wonder that Karzai has already balked?

Our foreign policy is a joke. The only people who don't realize it are Americans who continue to believe in their Messiah. The 1 billion Indians know it's a joke. The 1 billion Chinese know it's a joke. The Russians know it's a joke. The Iranians know it's a joke. Assad knows it's a joke. Nasrallah knows it's a joke. Wake up! Obama's trying to cut a deal with the Taliban so they'll give him a "decent interval" to withdraw from Afghanistan without them collapsing the place as we pull out. Obama will claim "victory" and when it all goes to shit blame the Afghans. Karzai is a bozo, and Karzai is corrupt, and Karzai is incompetent, but Karzai didn't get where he is without being an astute "survivor" and he can smell a "Munich" coming.
