The Generals told Biden Afghanistan would collapse if troops were pulled out. This reminds me of the Iraq army after Obama pulled out and ISIS took over large areas. The f—ked up border, and collapse in Afghanistan has Obama’s finger prints all over them. I really think Obama s pulling Biden’s strings. The Taliban will humiliate America. There will be no mercy.

Why didn’t Trump do it?

Because he was weak with the Generals.

And now we send in 5,000 more troops to get killed.

Over what?

“ this same thing would be happening.”

Bull crap .
There is a right way to end things and a Biden way to do it.
We should use every weapon we have including nuclear to keep these Taliban bastards from capturing Americans.

Biden’s presidency is done if Americans are captured.

This incredibly sad. I sent 100s of care packages to military in that area. They were so grateful for the little things we take for granted when air dropped into that hell hole.

The sacrifices they made..the money the US spent...and all for nothing.

Biden wouldnt even protect our black hawk helicopters.

“ Do these goat humpers not realize there is a worldwide pandemic going on? For God’s sake where a mask when you’re killing infidels!”

*****

I was wondering if they’d check vaccine passports and hand out masks on the roof of the embassy.

I'm not sure the patriots in this country are willing to protest and sacrifice any more. And the leftists know this.

I sincerely thought we were pretty well out of Afghanistan once Bush moved into Iraq and did not get heavily involved until Obama who went back into Afghanistan referring to it as a “GOOD WAR”. I do know that media completely protected Obama by not giving the daily body counts and it pretty much became the secret war.

I am not getting this “twenty years” in Iraq. Of course, there was a US presence but Obama expanded it exponentially.

Everyone likes a winner. Biden is an anti-American loser and his Marxist military, state Department and political advisors don’t want to be blamed for the Afghanistan evacuation debacle.

My point is that if we left 20 years ago, or 20 years from now…this same thing would be happening.
/\

More crap.

What same thing?

Scrapping a plan that was working.

Telegraphing our weakness by having our c in c beg for mercy ?

Leaving weapons and ammo ?

What same thing ?

Yours is a weasel argument.

Btw.

I detested trump and voted Cruz in primary.

I was won over by Trump’s solid performance that benefited the nation.

I hated his vac plan, still do.

Sod off.

You really an Lt. ?

Sorry, don’t beleive that either, unless you are one of our comrade in disguise new Miley diverse dolt.

The Generals and the Deep State fought Trump and his plan to withdraw from Afghanistan. All political. And Trump's plan to pull out while protecting American assets was tossed by the Biden administration.

The Afghanistan 20-year debacle has fingerprints all the way back to GWB. But this withdrawal's failures lie squarely on Biden and, I suspect, Obama.

Likely killed or ransomed.

Liberals will not care.

Biden is just a figurehead. The generals are running this i.e Milley.

More like some kind of switch and revolt. The dude had a modernized M16... Later version than the ANA usually has. Where did he get it?

Do you expect a belief system that murdered 250 million people, start the majority of 20th century major wars, enslave over a billion people, abort over a billion children, to ever learn anything?

I expect no learning for the liberal, except when he’s personally dragged off to death camps while screaming, “It wasn’t supposed to be this way!”

Sorry, Biden doesn’t get a pass, much like Trump wouldn’t have received a pass had this happen on his watch.

Hmm.. I guess. But I really do think Biden doesn’t know what is going on. He’s senile! The generals are surely in charge.
