It's a toss up in my mind, who is more like Monty Python's Black Knight - Biden, Obama or the UN?

Sorry, hate to break it to you, but that imaginary bull is actually more useful than anything the real UN can say or do. Besides, the UN is a bunch of grifters, who couldn’t get an interview for any type of employment.

Afghanistan is a landlocked dump. It’s destined to end up as a territory of Pakistan, Iran, or China — if any of them even want it.

All we need now is for the Pope to weigh in and we’ll have the Taliban surrounded diplomatically. They wouldn’t dare make trouble after that.

You mean the same UN that gave Iraq leader Saddam Hussein, 16 different resolutions, each of which he chose to ignore?

How do they have time to tell the Taliban what to do, aren’t they busy getting ready to come to the United States to enforce the mask/vaccine mandate?

An example of the same liberal delusion that imagines that if the US would lay down its weapons than all the rest of the world would follow.

“Joe’s cowardy methods including setting up a specific date”

Joe wanted to bask in the glory of pulling the troops out before Sept 11, and taking credit for a democrat Afghanistan on Sept 11. They couldn’t hold on that long, taking away his accolades.

The UN also wants them to sign onto the Paris Accords.

Oh, and Fauci demands they wear masks while they slaughter all their enemies. That Delta variant can be dangerous!
