This happens all the time. Blow up a wedding or funeral here or there as well. Part of the reason people hate US in such parts. Nothing new.

Might have been a good thing if Milley had given this poor aid worker a warning.

Biden gets a pass from the media, celebrities, the left, because it’s for “the greater good”.
Even his racist belittling comments about blacks are ok too because his heart is in the right place.
Just like Obama droning a wedding party killing many civilians. It’s ok.

So if they had bad intel on this target, what comfort do I have they had good intel on the “background” checks on those let into the US?

Biden has done the unthinkable. You could take Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton and Barack Obama and put them in a blender. Supercharge with steroids...

In nine months, Joe 'Feckless' Biden has eclipsed them all...

Biden’s claims all fall in this catagory. Just another lie. What a goofball Biden is. All his threatening talk and he wants to claim a U.S. aid worker with 7 children with him are wiped out and not an ISIS member as claimed. This man is a joke elected by people who hated Trump.

They tried.

They needed to hit something to make Biden look Clint Eastwood tough after the pathetic Afghan pull out.

Just needed the headlines. No time to wait, no time to be sure. Have a news cycle deadline to meet.

Appearances matter most.

Hey, they’re not really good at this stuff. They’re much better at wokeism.

They relied on the Taliban who gave false intelligence information on purpose. So they can now attack us for Joe killing kids.

Our "intelligence" and military leadership have turned into woke tards.

Abbott and Costello could do a better job.

Biden is on vacation.

They trotted out Mackenzie to take the hits.

Biden is chicken.

The day that came over the ticker, my immediate instinct was to say ‘it’s a lie, this administration isn’t that competent.”
