Why is anyone here surprised by the prior announcement of the bombings? This same guy negotiated a withdrawal from Afghanistan with the Taliban with a timetable for the American departure in 2021. He also invited them to Camp David in 9/19 but withdrew the invitation at the last minute (they had accepted) after being angered by a Taliban attack that killed 12 Americans.

One correction - It was an ISIS attack that killed 12 Americans. 
The Taliban and ISIS actually hate each other.

OK. I rechecked the various accounts. Apparently, the Taliban took credit for a car bomb attack in Kabul. I'm guessing you are saying that particular attack was by ISIS.

Anyhow....an American president inviting the Taliban to Camp David is something I never, ever would have expected. Maybe he will invite the Israelis and Iranians there to play a few rounds of golf with him.

Quality Seinfeld reference.
Luke 6:45   ...A good man produces goodness from the good in his heart; an evil man produces evil out of his store of evil.   Each man speaks from his heart's abundance...

It is better to be fearless and cheerful than cheerless and fearful.
