Afghanistan will go down in American history as a failure of a similar magnitude as Vietnam. Where this differs is in its legacy. We don’t know yet what new threats might rise from Afghanistan, what new 9/11s will be planned there.

The world is less safe today, President Biden. That’s on you.

9/11 was also planned out of Florida and Germany. That is the nature of terrorism. The jihad of migration has already taken over America and will continue to sweep thru.

“I personally had discussions with top Taliban leaders whereby they understood what they are doing now would not have been acceptable,” he said, noting that if he was still president, he would have focused on a “conditions-based” withdrawal.”

PDJT knew what he was doing, and how to do it.

The stolen election of 2020 has been an unmitigated disaster for America.

What did we hope to do there? Turn it into a Western democracy complete with I am Jazz and Desmond is Amazing? Launch an invasion into Iran from there to bring about The Rapture sooner? Kill Osama bin Laden? What was the goal? Was there ever a clear one? Maybe Liz Cheney or Kevin McCarthy can educate us on what the plan ever was. I guess John McCain no longer can. Did this thing ever make any sense after the first few months?

If this century has taught America anything, it’s that Democracy cannot be imposed on others.

Ours started as a republic. People call it a democracy nowadays but I think it's becoming an anarcho-tyranny state.

At least no one can say we didn’t leave it exactly like we found it, except for all the weapons and improved infrastructure I guess.

I think if I controlled the taliban I would probably blow up the US embassy on the 20th anniversary of 9/11.

This would be a good time for the Democrats to legalize weed.

I was thinking of getting a new Hmmwv but its so hard to get one right now with Covid and the disruption to the supply chain. Do you think the Taliban will start putting some up for sale? Maybe I can get one shipped back on the last plane out...

It’s not on Biden - it’s on Bush. If we had irradiated the place in 2001 there would have been no need for 20 years of casualties and trillions in spending. Nobody would have faulted a strong response after 9/11. Now it is too late.

We did not learn the lesson from Vietnam. Go in with overwhelming force (a la WW II) and crush your enemy or don’t go at all.

Afghanistan has been unsuccessfully invaded for centuries, most recently by the Soviets. Who could be so foolish to think we would succeed where so many others have failed?

Wars are nothing more than covers for weak politicians and arms manufacturers to profit mightly. Remember the military industrial complex thingy?

That complex has been replaced by a regimented goon squad hurling lies&propaganda and being supported by social media sites and media that is no longer bound by any rules anytime.

The Left does not hide its hatred for this country and its people. It is the cancer within.. recent events confirm the diagnosis.

I wonder how many ‘trust fund’ babies can afford to protest our flag as they get funding from “unknown” or unidentified sources.
