Should the US negotiate with the Taliban in Afghanistan? (real possibility)

Intellectually dishonest much?

You do know the difference between conceding and negotiations right?
So, you're implying that the allies never engaged the Nazis in diplomacy (a better deal than continued fighting) when Berlin was invaded by the Russians and Americans?
what was the reason that the Nazis didn't continue to fight? Are we anywhere close to that precipice in Afghanistan? If you intended to play the attrition game with the Taliban (not even Al Qaeda), pack a lunch or two
