Breitbart ^ | 10/26/2021 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 10/27/2021 6:16:57 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said the U.S. is “relying upon the Taliban to help us prevent an attack by ISIS on the United States.” Because of the inability to conduct legitimate over-the-horizon counterterrorism, and “We’re relying on a terrorist organization to police two terrorist groups.”

That’s like depending on Hitler to protect Hawaii from Japanese attack.

That’s like depending on Republicans to prevent leftist policy.

Yeah, and when Wile E Coyote sees a train coming he’s going to warn Roadrunner too...

Afghanis are not Arabs. “Never trust a muslim” is the meme to use.

We're relying on the Taliban to reign in ISIS, keep them from attacking us?

You do realize that for the past 20 odd years we've been shooting and bombing the Taliban? They are not our friends, never have been. They helped back Al Qaeda, the group responsible for the 9/11 attacks on us that precipitated our 20 year war with them.

Go ahead, tell the alcoholic to run the bar, the pedophile to run the daycare, the rapist to run the women's shelter... Or have the Taliban be the voice of reason for ISIS. Same thing.

The fools in the current, illegal US administration are so far disconnected from reality it is stunning, truly stunning. What idiocy will they come up with next?

How about some illegitimate over-the-horizon terrorist interceptions?

Very hard to take anything that Graham says seriously.

Indeed. The evac was a disaster, and Biden should resign for it.

But we still needed to leave, and that meant leaving the Taliban in charge. I’m not sure what these forever war Republicans suggest as an alternative.

Not all Arabs are Muslims.

And the Afghans aren’t Arabs anyway, though of course ISIS has its share.

I expect ISIS to keep moving to further establish its power base in Afghanistan and ultimately start attacking the ChiComs and Taliban alike.

Republicans will resist for 5 years and then adopt the policy.

Well we could just not allow Muslims into the country , that would solve a lot of problems. It’s not like the Taliban has any ability for a full scale
Invasion of the United States

Didn’t I say ISIS would attack the Taliban (as well as the ChiComs)? How do you get that I think they would be in cohorts?

Sorry, I just realized you probably should have included a comma in that comment after “chance”.
