This is an indication of how the Taliban and Al Quaeda take advantage of the situation with propaganda. 

A clear way ahead or an exit strategy is needed.  If this mission fails, it will be the failure of NATO as a cohesive force and will contribute to its demise as an effective organization.  The Taliban know this.
