Joe Biden’s disastrous handling of Afghanistan and his remarks on the debacle continue to reverberate around the world. The British Daily Telegraph reports that America’s closest ally is roundly condemning Biden and questioning its relationship with the United States.
The Daily Telegraph reports that “Joe Biden’s handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal was condemned as ‘catastrophic’ and ‘shameful’ as Parliament delivered an unprecedented rebuke to a US president.”
Condemnation for Biden came from across the political spectrum in Britain, Tory and Labour alike, and included Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Johnson himself, a staunch ally of the United States regardless of the president or party to which he belongs, also came under fierce criticism. He could only argue that Biden’s decisions had forced his hand.
Tory Chairman Tom Tugendhat fought in Afghanistan alongside the Afghan troops Biden has repeatedly condemned since Kabul’s fall. He blasted the U.S. leader: “To see their commander-in-chief call into question the courage of men I fought with, to claim they ran, is shameful.”
Former Prime Minister Theresa May likewise condemned the United States under Biden, saying, “Was our knowledge of the position on the ground so inadequate? Did we really believe that, or did we just feel that we had to follow the United States and hope that, on a wing and a prayer, it would be all right on the night?”
Tory leader Michael Howard said Biden’s withdrawal from Afghanistan “is, and will be seen by history, as a catastrophic mistake which may well prove to the defining legacy of his presidency.”
The UK’s Chief of Defense Staff, Gen. Sir Nick Carter, “accused the US of ‘shattering’ the morale of Afghan troops when they stopped airstrikes.”

Hello republicucks. Where are you?
Sorry, source is PJ Media not Frontpagemagazine. The link is correct.
Holding Biden in contempt.
Just as we do here on this forum.
Now we need a few tens of millions of Americans to follow us and repent for their evil.
Send Scotland Yard to arrest him, please
Hello republicucks. Where are you?
*************
AWOL as usual.
They are Ass Rats - Assistant Democrats.
Remember when the left constantly cried about Trump making the US look bad to the world?
What do they say now?
You and me both Parliament, you and me both... For this and so many other things.
I heard this yesterday and
alerted my brother. He said, “USA is a laughingstock now.”
I agree, reluctantly, but it’s only the current leadership.
VOTE!
And PROTECT the VOTE!
NOW is the time to catch the perpetrators who STOLE the 2020 election.
(I’m on a tangent now)
Who could possibly think that Biden is qualified? Who wants to remove him and let Harris occupy the W.H.?
< /end_of_rant>
Biden has proved again he’s a national security risk and has put many countries in danger of the Taliban.
Mods, could you change the source to PJ Media?
Oh well. At least there are no more mean tweets....
So this is even worse than Obama taking the Churchill bust out of the Oval Office? Those two clowns sure have a knack for destroying the “special relationship.”
So much for Joe taking any questions today or probably any other day.
Wow.
Yep, they need to pile on and strike while the iron is hot.
Well, their condemnation of Biden is arriving a bit late, but they're welcome to get in line behind the tens of millions of Trump voters who knew Joe was a snake. Oh, and Boris' "staunch ally regardless of the president or party" bit rings rather hollow, after watching the way the Brits treated Trump for four years. Perhaps the next time he's president, the folks across the pond will keep their estrogen (and venom) levels under control.
