"We will repair our alliances and engage with the world once again. ... We will be a strong and trusted partner for peace, progress, and security."
So said President Joe Biden at his inaugural address.
To borrow from Shakespeare, "His jest will savor but of shallow wit, when thousands weep more than did laugh at it."
...the speed with which the Taliban have seized, retained, and expanded the strategic initiative is devastating. Not just for the Afghan people, but for Biden's credibility as an ally that can be trusted.
The Baltic states on Russia's periphery (already betrayed by Biden's Nord Stream 2 gift to Vladimir Putin), and allies, such as Taiwan, South Korea, and Japan, will be shuddering at what they're seeing from Biden in Afghanistan. This is a president unwilling to adapt to unpredictable developments...
Biden has also inflicted great cost to his credibility as a humanitarian. Or as Biden likes to present himself, as the ultimate anti-Trump president. In his inaugural address, Biden also pledged to "make America, once again, the leading force for good in the world."
How does that comport with what we're now seeing?

The real Rats in charge are seeking out the greatest damage possible.
But no, it's a Bush/Cheney globalist republican criticizing Biden for not insisting that US troops be there permanently. Fool.
Watch for Biden to betray Taiwan in addition to the Baltics.
Obama is in dah House and wants his ISIS back in power
Taiwan? You can add the Philippines or even Guam... Watch it.
Current military exercises only prep for evacuation of those places, nothing else. Saigon debacle writ large.
We had peace and security. Looks like Afghanistan policy ended that. Along with letting Russia have Nord Stream 2.
Biden is brain dead
Biden is an unmanned drone
Biden has the loyalty of a Vietnamese whore.
“Me love you long time!”
Biden’s owned many things in his life time credibility never was one of them.
Duh
Meh. Biden has a record of 40 years of unrelieved incompetence in foreign affairs. Nothing to be surprised about. And yes of course the world community is taking full note. They don’t get their intel from watching Lester Holt and company.
