Tony Blair has blasted Joe Biden's 'imbecilic' decision to withdraw US troops from Taliban-controlled Afghanistan, calling the President's scuttle 'tragic, dangerous and unnecessary' and claiming the move had 'every Jihadist group round the world cheering'.
Mr Blair, who was in Downing Street when London sent UK troops to the Middle Eastern country 20 years ago following the 9/11 attacks on New York and Washington DC, said Britain has a 'moral obligation' to stay until 'all those who need to be are evacuated'.
In a 2,700 article on the threat of 'radical Islam', the former British prime minister said the exit was not in the West or Afghanistan's interest as he lamented the likely reversal of gains made during the occupation, with the Taliban reasserting itself across most of the country in recent days.
Speaking to Sky News on Sunday, Mr Blair said he has 'enormous respect' for Mr Biden, but suggested the President - who campaigned on a slogan of ending 'forever wars' and is likely to be keeping an eye on next year's midterms - had withdrawn US troops for domestic political reasons.

If Biden continues this insane path it won’t be long before democrat citizens feel they’d be better off with Trump too.
You Brits are alittle slow on the uptake, what?
DO YA MISS ME YET ???
The whole world would be better off and everyone knows it!
Then maybe the lying Brits shouldn’t have stabbed and undermined Trump with fabricated GCHQ and 5 eyes Bullcrap starting even before the 2016 election.
And they have no excuse. They knew Biden was a lying plagiarizing unethical lowlife decades ago.
Perfidious Albion...
Screw the limeys, they wanted Biden, they got him.
Why did they ever think they would be better if with a stupid democrat Biden?
They are more stupid than he is.
Can we have a recount?
Blair is way beyond Deep State. He was carrying on an affair with Murdoch’s Chinese wife. Terrible human. He is right (broken clock) that Biden is an imbecile but literally wrong about everything else, and always has been.
Joe may be an imbecile, but that requires an IQ of at least 26. That’s better than a lot of people who vote Democrat.
Boris, we all would.
Exactly. They got exactly what they deserve.....................
During every presidential election, the mainstream media produces a story that says world opinion favors the Democratic candidate. My response to that is, “Big deal, if the animal kingdom could vote, the Green Party candidate would be our next president!” Remember the YouTube video that showed Ralph Nader trying to get advice from a parrot?
“better off with Trump”
NSS.
Well, you damn limeys and the rest of the Euroweenies were thrilled when Biden stole the election.
Enjoy the suck, Euro losers!
Eurotrash..............
“better off with Trump”
Need a left-handed compliment?
Spot on!!!
