President Houseplant is a pathetic failure.

[Celerity]

Washington post you say?

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Afghans were willing to fight. But we abandoned them on the battlefield.

We helped them fight for 20 years. The real problem is that we couldn't stop Pakistan from sheltering the Taliban and keeping it alive.

[RummyChick]

why am i seeing this from WAPO? Let’s see......CIA backed...so Biden getting skewered?

[The Great RJ]

We could have given close air support, but Old Joe abandoned our base at Bagram so we would have to depend on carrier based planes. Joe also could have called in B-52 raids or A-10s but chose to bug out in the middle of the night leaving billions in weapons to the Taliban

[Pilgrim's Progress]

You’re probably not talking about the young men that were fleeing on that military aircraft, right?

[eyeamok]

Funny, the interview I heard on Bongino said that 3 out of 4 Afghans were smoking hash from sun up to sun down, lazy, unorganized, no motivation,...

[GreenHornet]

According to Biden’s speech today, there were only 300 people in the Afghan military.

[Mr. K]

They outnumber(ed) the Taliban almost 5 to 1

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

Old Joe has lost WAPO! How much longer till President Heels Up is sworn in?

[bigbob]

The people behind this debacle don’t care about Afghans doing anything. They care about contracts for the military industrial complex and they sure don’t care about this s-hole country or its people.

Besides, the Afghan army is illiterate and usually high as a kite. All of which means more money to the contractors teaching them letters and numbers and not to behave. They are useless.

[End Times Sentinel]

Afghanis are cowards with no Western values, who will turn and run at the first opportunity to abandon their wives and children. That much is obvious.
Could the evacuation be better organized, like keeping Bagrahm open? Of course.
There are certain translators who were useful, but bringing their families as well?
Do we really want to bring in 50,000 afghanis/dual citizens (with taliban sympathies) back to the U.S.?
Anyone still in Trashcanistan after months of warning, is clearly either too stupid to be an asset to the U.S. or potential terrorists.

[mass55th]

Is that what the Chi-coms paid the Compost to say?

[libertylover]

See Tagline. I’ve said for a long time that our only hope to avoid CWII or RWII is that the New York Times and Washington Post would “Come to Jesus” and start printing the truth. Is this the early stages of this? I doubt it, but one can hope.

[Sequoyah101]

Sometime the kids need to make decisions and go it on their own. I’d say 20 years or so is long enough to hold their hands when they cross the street.

This guy is dead wrong.

[Kevmo]

They were basically promised air support from Bagram, but Biden just plain bugged out. Without air support, with the enemy willing to go into your village and slaughter every child hoping to catch yours, it is a luzing battle.

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

Weve been holding their hands for 20 years

[Trumpisourlastchance]

They were not willing to fight. They ran and flew away.

[Chauncey Gardiner]

Biden stopped maintenance on Afghan military aircraft right after taking office. Hard to fight with no air cover.

[LouAvul]

I have never witnessed a more shameful U.S. failure than that of this week

I have to recall the Bay Of Pigs after the above statement. That was shameful and traitorous as well.
