Warm welcome for Hagel in Kabul

Warm? Hell, you could almost call it explosive. The Taliban welcomed US Defense Secretary Hagel to Afghanistan today by sending a suicide bomber to the Ministry of Defense HQ.

That's the Taliban equivalent of a 21 gun salute, and Hagel says he appreciated the gesture.

"It's refreshing to see that Kabul is returning to normal after our great victory here. With the evacuation of US troops to be completed next year, I am confident that the ensuing bloodbath as the Taliban slaughter the collaborators will remind the world of just how relatively benign our occupation of Afghanistan actually was."
