The “War on Terror” took many precious lives of tens of thousands of Afghan civilians, Taliban fighters and Afghan soldiers, as well as about 2400 American soldiers. Moreover, Afghanistan is populated with a number of ethnic and linguistic groups, so, is only signing an agreement enough to bring peace and stability in Afghanistan? Can they (the Afghan government and the Taliban) adopt a culture of “give and take” to bring peace to their homeland? Similarly, for some the peace agreement is a victory for the USA, but for many it is a victory of the Taliban. All the stakeholders within Afghanistan need to fully meet their obligations under the deal and bring peace to the country, which is hungering for peace.
