Why did the USA drone kill that Pakistan Taliban leader the day before he was due to start peace talks with Pakistan?

The Taliban are not having any peace talks with the USA, Sooo they are still at war as usual. So Taliban operatives are still setting of IEDs in Afghanistan and US drones are still taking out targets of opportunity as they arise. So it's business as usual between them.

What happens between the Taliban and Pakistan is between them. They can continue with their separate agreements if they so desire.

Well inducing fear in ones enemy is a tactic of war. So the drones are doing the same thing as the IED's just in a different landscape. And if the current elites of Pakistan decide they want to end the strikes and make a new agreement with the USA then that's their call, They will work out a new arrangement when they meet. We will see what that is, not in the official political speak they dish out for the mushroom masses but in the actual end results. Weather or not the strikes actually come to an end in Pakistan.

Fair comment. The IEDs are in an acknowledged war zone though.

The whole world is a war zone, take a look what happened in that Kenyan shopping mall when the allied jihadist organization to the Taliban slaughtered the shoppers. That's just one example.

The whole concept of making peace with the Taliban is beyond ridiculous to me. If it were up to me everyone who militantly acted on that antiquated and draconian ideology and tried to force others to do so, would be isolated from the rest of society or sought out and wiped out until their memory was erased from the face of the earth. They are fascists and have no place in the 21st century. I hate everything the Taliban stands for. Remember these are the guys who shot Malala for advocating education for young girls. These are the ones who are supplying most of the worlds with heroin and promoting pure ideological poison.

You sound as zealous as the Taliban. That's probably not a good thing. I don't think you are correct about the heroin problem being down to the Taliban either.

Yes. I am very anti fascist. I am against evil, and the Taliban is evil.

The Taliban would say the same about America.

Why do you keep posting this same question over and over? Do you support taleban attacks on girls who only wantvto get an education?

I have only posted this question once, obviously. The drone killing happened earlier this week.
