Former CIA Director and Secretary of State Leon Panetta, who served under President Barack Obama, gave an ominous warning about the situation in Afghanistan during a televised interview to be aired Sunday.
“The Taliban taking over Afghanistan is pretty much the same Taliban that controlled Afghanistan on 9/11,” Panetta said during the taping of “Full Court Press with Greta Van Susteren.” “It's clear to me that they're going to continue to support Al-Qaeda, and I think they will plan additional attacks on our country, as well as elsewhere.”
The Taliban controlled Afghanistan when Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda launched the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States in New York City and Washington, D.C., when 20 radical Islamic terrorists hijacked and crashed passenger planes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center as well as crashing a passenger plane into the Pentagon.
A fourth plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after passengers fought the hijackers off as they headed for another target, killing all on board.
Both towers in New York collapsed, killing more than 2,700 people including more than 300 police, firefighters and other first responders.
U.S. forces went into Afghanistan to find and kill Bin Laden, fighting the Taliban back and taking over the country.
Bin Laden was eventually found and killed by U.S. Navy Seals in Pakistan in 2011, and a U.S. backed government was set up in Afghanistan.
President Donald Trump initially negotiated a withdrawal from the country after 20 years based on the situation on the ground, but President Joe Biden extended the May deadline to Aug. 31, rapidly pulling the 2,500 troops in the country out.

He is like Carnac…
WOW! What insight you have there leo pinata! I wonder if he thinks some ner do wells are sneaking in on C-17s.
Yeah, that Taliban sure was clever, pulling off 9/11.
A week or so ago Pennetta said something to the effect that we should go back into Afghanistan.
Pennetta is pure Globalist/Military Industrial Complex/Shadow Government/Deep State rolled into one.
From the No sh!t Sherlock academy and they’ll prolly use the hardware and technology left by Diaper Joe to do it.
Two weeks ago.
Obama Defense Secretary Leon Panetta: U.S. Forces Will Have to Return to Afghanistan
When he served in Congress he was also known as “The King of Pork”.
Nope. Pinpoint every stinking area the taliban and Al Qaeda have people in and carpet bomb…no warnings. Use the drones to salt the farmland used for poppy production. Then do it all over again.
For his San Francisco district
Thanks for that warning Captain Obvious.
Why shouldn’t they attack us?
George Bush called half of us terrorists ( presumably those who saw a fraudulent election install a mindless idiot while Comgress did nothing) …and VP Harris at Shanksville said we called the 911 attack down on ourselves for attacking muslims because they ‘ look different”
Biden et al remind us everyday of how imperfect and unworthy we are as a terrible outgrowth of a flawed history.
So why shouldn’t we be attacked?
Our own national leaders have given terrorists ( the real ones that murder citizens going about their daily lives) a psychological indulgence for their acts
“Why shouldn’t they attack us?”
Well, because they don’t need to. Biden and handlers have blatantly brought them into the country, so there’s no need for an attack. They’ll just quietly take over, institute sharia (has been happening for years), and end America forever.
Leon Panetta, aka Lie-on Piñata as he was know during the Clinton regime.
I’ll say this for Panetta. He was the one who made the call to take Bin Laden when Obama was unwilling to.
You beat me to it.
So did Lindsay Graham.... right on time after we dump 89 Billion bucks worth of very expensive MRAPs aircraft humvees and thousands of small arms and full auto squad weapons. Yes
“those need to be replaced”,
Panetta is an flaming a@@hole, and he is MAJORLY involved in the Benghazi gun running with Qatar as the agent. Scum, Italian FASCIST scum. And don’t forget where he got his start with CLINTONISTAS.
