Former U.S. President George W. Bush criticized the Western withdrawal from Afghanistan on Wednesday, using an interview with a German broadcaster to outline his fears Afghan women and girls will “suffer unspeakable harm.”

Asked in an interview with German international broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW) whether the withdrawal is a mistake, Bush replied: “You know, I think it is, yeah, because I think the consequences are going to be unbelievably bad.”

Maybe Boosh should fear for the women and girls being brought in by the cartels from the southern border for the sex trade.

Should have never set on boot on the ground there.

30 days of daily B-52 raids would have been enough.

Uh George, US troops are already gone from Afghanistan

Maybe if you really believed what you are saying, you would have said something last year?

Kind of makes me think you are just doing PR to cover your ass, because your name is going to be coming up a lot in the near future when videos of Taliban in-charge start coming out.

GWB has not been the least concerned about American women and girls being raped or murdered by the illegal aliens he refused to protect us from.

Afghanistan has opium, lithium and Islam. Let China exploit the s*hole.

A punitive expedition would have been fine. Nation building was a pipe dream, there is no raw material with which to build a modern nation.

He should have used tactical nuclear weapons to smoke out Osama or not go in at all. Thank God my son came back in one piece.

GWB, not to worry. Islam loves women and girls, (and little boys and goats.)

FU Boosh!

I regret voting for Bush and will never vote for anyone allied with the “Bush Dynasty” which specializes in selling out the middle class and working poor.

I used to like GWB, but now everything about him how seems to remind me of his playful antics with paper airplanes.

Well, George, you get yourself right over there and do something about it. Luckily for us, you no longer have the ability to commit Americans to doing things for you.

The deep state lost a large cash flow form heron, military weapons and equipment trade, sex trade and crimes against humanity. President Eisenhower warned us against the military industrial complex in 1962. They have grown exponentially since then.
