“ for some reason, the calls to my liberal friends keep going to voice mail.
I’ll let you know if I hear back.”

LMAO!!!
The same here! I thought my liberal friends were special, I guess not.
That’s funny.
radio silence!
I thought the German’s flanked the Maginot Line by going through Belgium?
Because our “leaders” do not want to do it.
There is no other explanation, They do not care about the Americans stuck in Afghanistan, only the Afghan “refugees”.
Exactly.
Sociopaths can’t feel humiliation.
Count on it. They are just consolidating their power bases right now. They will get around to it as soon as they feel invulnerable
Gascons have been notoriously reputed to be feisty since the days of Cyrano de Bergerac.
Apparently so. JFK did his share of damage, too.
Why that was allowed I don’t know but it set a terrible precedent
US did manage to push the Norks back to the 49th Parallel and keep them there for seven decades. Did manage to depose Saddam. Did kill Osama. Problem with the military victories is that the US doesn’t know when to stop. McArthur had the Norks at the 49th, but then he decided to push them to the Yalu and ran into the Chicoms, then went back to the 49th and stayed there. Did depose Saddam, but decided to do some nation building, then decided to abruptly pull foot, then decided to come back and destroy ISIS. Did put the Taliban to flight and kill Osama, but decided to stay for 20 years. Then decided to pull foot abruptly just now. The US can win and has won overwhelmingly, then screw it up over time.
Because Nixon thought he was doing the right thing and letting it pass. Damned fool. He was a brilliant leader who kept smacking his Achilles heel.
Ya. He wasn’t doing the right thing. The American people wanted him in the presidency
It was not his to let pass
Trump, at least, got that.
Beware of Republican POTUSes that the media does not call “morons”. Bush 41 was never called that. Neither was Nixon or Ford, all mediocre or terrible in their own rights. Trump, Dubya, Reagan, Eisenhower and Lincoln were all called morons, and they accomplished some great things.
“...they collapsed after the Germans overran the Maginot Line,”
That’s what I thought from beginning
That this was botched so badly that it can’t be anything but deliberate
You hit the nail on the head.
The Afghanistan withdrawal debacle was INTENTIONAL.
First, Biden was a US Senator who voted against giving additional funds to South Vietnam leading to its collapse.
Second, Obama negotiated for the release of the head Taliban bad guy who led the insurrection.
Third,the LEFT loves the message of chaos caused by US foreign intervention.
THIS IS ALL OBAMA AND THOSE LEFTIST LUNATICS IN DC!! No accident or misunderstanding. This was a message from Obama and Biden to the US.
“We should to stop thinking of the Biden Admin is a hapless bunch operating at half-capacity. Better to assume it’s operating at full-speed Marxism.”
I agree. Someone is pulling in credits from Biden—Hunter related, not sure, but I do believe this is all intentional.
Well, the French do have a knack for retreating, they been doing it for years.
“The Afghanistan withdrawal debacle was INTENTIONAL.”
This seems to be the consensus.
Just as the border, borrowing trillions, energy dependence, crime, Covid plandemic and inflation would appear to be intentional, not rational policies.
To what end?
