There are deals in the works all the time for all kinds of things, I would have been surprised if there wasn't a deal being talked about. There is so much behind the scenes talks going on between differant countries for damn near everything. We're just finding out about these talks what 10 year later? I wouldn't be surprised to find out there where all kinds of talks (behind the scenes with Sodamn Insane) before the the Iraqi invasion, there was an above the table deal offered: Leave the country.

If the story's accuracy is to be believed, then the Clinton State Dept. was correct not to close the deal. From what I could see the Taliban offered to let the USA hit UBL, something they (the Taliban conceded they couldn't stop or do anything about)or give them (the Taliban) Cruise missles. Yeah that sounds like a real good deal to me. "Ok since we can't stop you and can do nothing about you launching cruise missles to kill UBL, you give us some of your best weapons so we can do it ourselves." Who the "Hale" did the Taliban have negotiating for them Daryl and his other brother Daryl?
