I find the part of this story about the ‘Afghanistan Memos’ very hard to believe. Biden was NEVER that thoughtful nor did he care about America enough to press the point with his boss.
Biden opposed the strike on Osama Bin Laden as well.
The Afghanistan withdrawal was screwed up because Biden wanted to get out fast and damn the consequences.
Biden did not want to escalate Afghanistan, but he has no other plan than to leave it to the biggest wolves....which is what he ended up doing anyway.
