| Afghanistan's Taliban on Tuesday turned down as illogical US President Barack Obama's bid to reach out to moderate elements of the insurgents, saying the exit of foreign troops was the only solution for ending the war.
Obama, in an interview with the 'New York Times', expressed an openness to adapting tactics in Afghanistan that had been used in Iraq to reach out to moderate elements there.
This does not require any response or reaction for this is illogical, Qari Mohammad Yousuf, a purported spokesman for the insurgent group, said when asked if its top leader Mullah Mohammad Omar would make any comment about Obama's proposal.
The Taliban are united, have one leader, one aim, one policy...I do not know why they are talking about moderate Taliban and what it means?
If it means those who are not fighting and are sitting in their homes, then talking to them is meaningless. This really is surprising the Taliban.
In Iraq, the use of Sunni Muslim community leaders to employ their people to patrol their neighbourhoods has been credited as one of the main reasons behind sharp falls in violence
