Well as I posted somewhere else - deal might in fact include giving them the country to let them rob Chinese.Or to let them deal with Chinese and start the war against them (do really ALL tribes support taliban ?) next so Chinese would get hurt with their "new silk road".

Why Taliban (or if not some tribes being against Talibs) shall kill US soldiers,and why US soldiers shall die if instead they (both muslims from Afghanistan and soldiers who would die in Afghanistan) might as well kill some Chinese soldiers ?

You cannot win with the enemy... ok you couldn't here join the enemy,but as you can use the enemy for your benefit...

I don't know details what and how,but it really looks more like geopolitical 4d chess than failure.
