The UK should talk to elements within the Taleban who can be persuaded to change sides, Defence Secretary Des Browne has said in an interview.
Mr Browne said some of those fighting British troops in Afghanistan were driven by "self-interest rather than ideology" and could be won over.
He told the Daily Telegraph: "There's no question we should try to reach them. People have been switched."
But he insisted that there was no basis for any negotiations with al-Qaeda.
This vid seems fitting "Reach Out and Touch Me".
