John Kerry: No Reason to Fear Released Taliban “Our Combat Role in Afghanistan Is Over” (Video)

In remarks this weekend when asked to defend the release of five top Taliban leaders from Guantanamo Bay as part of the Bowe Bergdahl deal, Secretary of State John Kerry pushed back on the idea that the Taliban leaders who were released would make any difference to the fight.

“We are ending our combat role. Our combat role in Afghanistan is over.”

If the US combat role is over then what are we still doing there?
Why is our government allowing more soldiers to die if the US combat role is over?
Why lose more people if Obama already surrendered?
