Agreed.Happy it happened. But they botched the withdraw.
they are Afghan Americans who were trying to figure out what to do. The only people that should be blamed are the intelligence services. they said the Afghan army could hold out for six months and it was like 6 hours. the whole thing was a **** **** mess that the Republicans gave us end of story. just like Vietnam and every depression and recession we've had. The catastrophe for 100 years ever since Roosevelt and I'm not too sure about him. grover Cleveland forever.No troops were dying or in danger of dying... they were all behind walls in the green zone and at Bagram Airbase and the Afghan troops were keeping the Taliban at bay with our help... do you know how many civilians have died since we pulled out?.... do you know that Americans are still there trapped... you may want to look it up if you can find it....
And who killed the 13 servicemen?Biden didn't have to do a thing until the Taliban made good on their promises to the USA.... he did it because he thought it would make him popular with the people..... it backfired.... and 13 brave troops are dead....
This was a big deal too.What Trump did
Made a deal with the Taliban without consulting the Afghan Govt
Dropped our troop strength down from 14,000 to 2,500
Made no provisions to evacuate US equipment
Made no provisions to evacuate Afghan citizens
Refused to meet with Biden to transition his Afghan plan

Biden did not write this report of course. We're damn glad to get out of there and I don't want to hear about any of this crap about this **** **** Republican disaster.Agreed.
However, Biden now seems intent on placing the responsibility on Trump.

Biden takes responsibility for every decision taken on Afghanistan, national security adviser says
From CNN's DJ Judd
National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters President Biden “is taking responsibility for every decision the United States government took with respect to Afghanistan because as he said, the buck stops with him.”
So Afghan Americans aren't real Americans to you?.... Your president left them there....they are Afghan Americans who were trying to figure out what to do. The only people that should be blamed are the intelligence services. they said the Afghan army could hold out for six months and it was like 6 hours. the whole thing was a **** **** mess that the Republicans gave us end of story. just like Vietnam and every depression and recession we've had. The catastrophe for 100 years ever since Roosevelt and I'm not too sure about him. grover Cleveland forever.
Biden was ordered to turn the base over to China and that's just what happened... China lives on the base and China has our weapons and airships.... and all of the Cobalt and Lithium deposits.... they have already started to mine them....This was a big deal too.
Why Did the United States Abandon Bagram Airfield? | National Review
The bottom line is that Biden didn’t leave enough troops in Afghanistan for an evacuation.
Then maybe you should stop replying to threads about it. Hypocrite.Biden did not write this report of course. We're damn glad to get out of there and I don't want to hear about any of this crap about this **** **** Republican disaster.
The Taliban are Zionist Fascist ?

Biden was given 2500 troops to evacuate with and an Afghan Army unwilling to fightThis was a big deal too.

IMHO, there is plenty of blame to go around. But I think Obama should suffer some of the blame too TBH.Agreed.

Our intelligence service said the Afghan army could hold out for probably six months, and it turned out to be 6 hours. We had to follow the trump plan that he negotiated with the Taliban at Camp David for God's sake. Screw the National Review lol. the two stupidest wars ever from W.This was a big deal too.

How to win friends and influence people.Biden was ordered to turn the base over to China and that's just what happened... China lives on the base and China has our weapons and airships.... and all of the Cobalt and Lithium deposits.... they have already started to mine them....
It is reminiscent of the kill ratio in 'Nam. We kill 10 to 1. Americans don't care about the 10...they care about the 1.Biden was given 2500 troops to evacuate with and an Afghan Army unwilling to fight
He still managed to safely evacuate 125,000 people
A major success
Biden didn't have to do a thing until the Taliban made good on their promises to the USA.... he did it because he thought it would make him popular with the people..... it backfired.... and 13 brave troops are dead....
BOOOOOSH?????IMHO, there is plenty of blame to go around. But I think Obama should suffer some of the blame too TBH.
Anyway, the withdraw was always going to be messy. But when you have folks falling off of planes... that is beyond the pale of messy. Total SNAFU.
I beg to differ.
When the Pentagon is paying for Drag Queen hour on their military installations....we are in the end times.
The Taliban are the ones running the show. The Afghan Gov are the pussies that all ran off and joined the Taliban.What Trump did
Made a deal with the Taliban without consulting the Afghan Govt
You generally DO THAT when you are planning on PULLING OUT of a country, nimrod.Dropped our troop strength down from 14,000 to 2,500
Because it wasn't until the NEXT YEAR yet before the pullout was actually scheduled, cupcake.Made no provisions to evacuate US equipment
Made no provisions to evacuate Afghan citizens
Refused to meet with the lying ASS who told Trump to SHUT UP during their debates?! Trump was in government four years, Biden the career grifter had been there HALF A FUCKING CENTURY. What possible need does Joe need of Trump's notes? Especially when it wasn't for another SEVEN MONTHS after his installment before the pullout was due, Gumdrop.Refused to meet with Biden to transition his Afghan plan
Not sure just how the Biden administration could be proud of the Afghanistan withdrawal, but they are.
A lot went wrong that was on Biden, but......
John Kirby, coordinator for strategic communications at the National Security Council, said Thursday that the Biden administration is “proud” of its botched withdrawal from Afghanistan in 2021.
Kirby appeared at a White House press briefing to discuss the administration’s newly released review of the chaotic withdrawal, which was marked by a suicide bombing at Kabul’s airport that killed 13 American service members and more than 100 Afghans.
That 12-page summary places much of the blame on the Trump administration, saying President Biden was “severely constrained” by former president Trump’s decisions. When Biden entered office, it says, “the Taliban were in the strongest military position that they had been in since 2001, controlling or contesting nearly half of the country.”
‘All This Talk of Chaos, I Just Didn’t See It’: White House Spokesman Says Administration ‘Proud’ of Afghanistan Withdrawal | National Review
John Kirby appeared at a White House press briefing to discuss the administration’s newly released review of the chaotic withdrawal.
Biden canceled everything Trump put in place on his first day in office, but had to keep in place the date of withdrawal?????
The gifts left behind for the Taliban will pay dividends to America for years to come, as the Taliban continue to fight terrorists in their country.
It might have been different if America had included the women and little girls when bargaining with the Taliban for an uninterrupted retreat.
But war is war and it's not 'for' little girls
