    The Taliban, whom the Biden administration has praised as being "businesslike and professional," have reportedly promised to give plots of land to the relatives of suicide bombers who attacked U.S. soldiers.

    "Addressing the gathering Monday evening, [Sirajuddin Haqqani] praised the sacrifices of 'martyrs and fedayeen,' referring to fighters killed in suicide attacks," The Associated Press reported. "Haqqani called them 'heroes of Islam and the country,' according to [Interior Ministry spokesman Saeed Khosty]. At the end of the meeting, he distributed 10,000 afghanis ($112) per family and promised each a plot of land."

    The Biden administration reportedly agreed last week to provide humanitarian aid to Afghanistan as conditions in the country worsen under Taliban-rule.

    "The U.S. has agreed to provide humanitarian aid to a desperately poor Afghanistan on the brink of an economic disaster, while refusing to give political recognition to the country's new Taliban rulers," a separate AP report stated. "The statement came at the end of the first direct talks between the former foes since the chaotic withdrawal of U.S. troops at the end of August."

    State Department Spokesman Ned Price said in a statement that the U.S. delegation "focused on security and terrorism concerns and safe passage for U.S. citizens, other foreign nationals and our Afghan partners, as well as on human rights, including the meaningful participation of women and girls in all aspects of Afghan society."

    "The two sides also discussed the United States' provision of robust humanitarian assistance, directly to the Afghan people," the statement added. "The discussions were candid and professional with the U.S. delegation reiterating that the Taliban will be judged on its actions, not only its words."

    The news comes after the Taliban said last week that it would not work with the U.S. to combat ISIS-K, which was responsible for murdering 13 U.S. soldiers during a suicide bombing in August.

    The AP reported:

    Taliban political spokesman Suhail Shaheen told The Associated Press there would be no cooperation with Washington on containing the increasingly active Islamic State group in Afghanistan. IS has taken responsibility for a number of recent attacks, including a suicide bombing Friday that killed 46 minority Shiite Muslims and wounded dozens as they prayed in a mosque in the northern city of Kunduz.

    "We are able to tackle Daesh independently," Shaheen said, when asked whether the Taliban would work with the U.S. to contain the Islamic State affiliate. He used an Arabic acronym for IS.

    The Taliban's claim that it will work to combat ISIS-K comes after it released thousands of terrorists from Bagram prison immediately after the U.S. handed over the area to the Taliban following Democrat President Joe Biden's pullout.

Inarguably, the policies of the Democrats in congress and Joe Biden as the Executive is plunging the United States into a recession, if we are not already there; a recession that was completely avoidable. Will abrupt changes in policies occur in time?

  Yes, the Democrats have a bold plan, yet to be revealed, to save us.

  No, there will have to be a complete undoing of the damage done by these Democrats.

  I can't do simple math, so how am I to understand the concept of basic economics.
