What we need to do is to take advantage of the time, to negotiate to those who we can, and try to bring stability.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Source: Press TV<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the US death toll in Afghanistan reaches 1,000, many analysts within US pose serious questions over the fate of a wrenching war that nine years on shows no sign of nearing an end.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-354","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-c54-reports"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
