The answer is plenty. Our preoccupation with the Wuhan Flu may obscure another danger, namely that the agreement regarding Afghanistan’s future will unleash a renewed outbreak of another virulent pandemic: Sharia-supremacism.

A troubling comparison by Stephen Young of the Afghan deal with the one that sealed the fate of South Vietnam suggests the Taliban could well use it to retake all of Afghanistan, encouraging jihadists the world over to believe that they, too, can defeat the United States.

We need an insurance policy with volunteer veterans helping the Afghan military and a proven counter-insurgency program that would enable Afghans to defend themselves and their villages against a resurgent Taliban.
