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.

They considerably reduced average number of students per classroom. That's got to be good for learning.
