In Afghanistan, we've opened the gates of hell

Who’s this we?

When do we get to start not acting like we are surprised Biden did it this way?

It was done with malice of forethought to create the crisis we are facing tomorrow morning.

The voices in Biden’s head

[Theoria]

'We got a taste of what to expect from ISIS-K on Aug. 26, when 13 American soldiers and 169 Afghans were killed in two suicide bomb attacks on the Kabul Airport. ISIS-K isn't alone. The Afghanistan-Pakistan region hosts the largest collection of terrorist organizations in the world, including 20 of 61 groups designated by the U.S. State Department as foreign terrorist organizations. All of them — including Al Qaeda and the Islamic State — are now celebrating this epic victory over the infidels. '

They were obviously already doing that while we were there. We now have gifted them a inventory of white elephants. It takes discipline and money to do maintenance and repair. Afghanistan will now go thru a process of the taliban infighting while we get to sit on the sideline.

The very nature of terrorism can occur anywhere. Just as alqaeda plotted in Germany, Florida and California. There will always be a chance of terrorism just like covid.

Biden is not in charge, never was or never will be. Kamala has nothing in the game . . people up the food chain are pulling the strings. Most in America don’t have a clue. This is all end times stuff.

Hell is experienced by our citizens we abandoned while we too will get a piece of it when our Taliban guests decide to go into action. Just hope that sleepy Joe decides to defend us and not desert us like he did the others.

WGAF. Islam is peace, or some sh! like that.

“We” is the USA without accusing you.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

If we had a real media in this country with real journalists they would be asking Pelosi night and day “What’s bigger grounds for impeachment, calling the Ukrainian President or arming Americas enemies with $82 billion in military weapons? Nothing is going to happen to this bastard, even if Republicans win the midterms, just watch.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

And the author completely ignores adventurism in China and Russia. He ignores the fact that our allies will not treat us as trustworthy partners. The global geopolitical was somewhat stable, especially under Trump. Now we have gone from the USA preserving global stability to a frightening, highly unstable world where anything can happen. And something WILL happen very soon.

[McGruff]

Neville Chamberlain...Jimmy Carter...boy Biden's gonna go down in history.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

It’s China. They have our government in their back pocket. This is what happens when treason isn’t prosecuted. I had no idea for example until a few months ago that Mitch McConnells wife owns a shipping company that does most of its business with China and that China also gave McConnell a $25 million dollar “gift”. Anything happen to the bastard? Oh of course not, incredibly he’s still in office.

[RedStateRocker]

Hell is where the morons who supported us ever getting INOT the place deserve to be sent. Every last politician, blogger and pundit who thought ever sending troops to Afghanistan, outside of perhaps a kill team to take out OBL, is where the blood on the hands resides. Curse them all.
