THREAD:
Siraj Haqqani is a violent extremist & what he says in this article cannot be trusted.
My platoon fought the Haqqani Network for 485 days. They bombed schools, kidnapped & tortured children. Targeted civilians. They terrorized the Afghan people.

If it were up to us, we would have never fired our weapons in Afghanistan. We were content to help the Afghan people. We built schools & wells. Brought food & water to them. Coloring books & blankets for children.
Siraj knew this, but attacked us every single day anyway.
Siraj contends in this article that the US moved goal posts, & that he & his fighters were just defending themselves.
Lies.
We were there in Afghanistan because you helped & gave safe haven to al Qaeda & they attacked our nation, killing 2977 Americans on 9/11.
Siraj-you’re not a statesman. You’re a terrorist.
I have no faith that a peace deal, brokered with a terrorist, will be honored.
AND we sure as hell shouldn’t be giving this terrorist a platform in the @nytimes (4 miles away from Ground Zero) to spew this propaganda.
