Breaking, not on any sites that I can see so far. This would be a lot like leaving Japan on Dec 7 in the 60s to be on their own, IMO. Amazing

If true, it’s one of those “stopped clock” things. I hope it’s true.

September might has well be next decade. By then Russia will have invaded Ukraine (thanks to Biden’s weakness) and then the excuse will be “mUh rUsSiA”.

Wasn’t Trump criticized for trying to remove these troops? Will Biden be criticized?

This is good news.

There is no success in this mission, nor will there be if we spend another 100 years supporting the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan.

Will our military leaders sand-bag Joe on the troop reductions the way they did DJT?

Gee, almost makes you wonder how the taliban might observe the 20th anniversary of 9/11.

Good. It’s about time. I wish Trump could have accomplished this — along with troops in other unnecessary places around the globe...

Taliban to launch new offensive in spring of 2022.

Care to bet that Xiden will also order that all arms, ammunition and equipment are left behind? You know, like Obama did when he ordered massive troop reductions from Iraq?

I’m confused now. Just yesterday there was concern in Congress by dems that too quick a withdrawal would endanger hard won women’s right in Afghan. Does this mean Joe doesn’t care about women?

Trump was correct on the border, Afghanistan, Syria, and on Iran. Biden just can’t admit that Trump was correct, and neither can the Democrats. Because the said the opposite, now we have to do stupid things until the public isn’t paying attention and they can do what Trump planned.....

The funding of terrorists by Biden, Iran especially and it’s allies, is going to pay negative dividends here in the US. It’s just stupid.

Yeah, and the Japanese actually attacked us.

All of the neocons who criticized Trump for wanting to withdraw from useless foreign wars will now praise Biden for this brave move. Biteme is now glomming on to Trump policies because he knows they work.

This — along with the Putin nonsense — are a transparent attempt to pivot the media to foreign policy and AWAY from the unmitigated disaster at the border.
