Biden Incompetence In Foreign Affairs Is Glaring

[protectionist]

You dumbfuck, the Taliban had already broken the deal before May 1st....

As U.S. warns on withdrawal, data shows Taliban attacks climb in past year

The number of attacks in Afghanistan by the Taliban in the last quarter of 2020 were higher than the same period the year before, a U.S. watchdog agency said on Monday, after recent accusations by President Joe Biden's administration that the Taliban has failed to live up to commitments needed...

Leave it to an America-hating dupe to blame America for terrorists violating a treaty with us. Just sad.

You numbskull. The deal did not begin until May 1. Try reading it.

So, now I ask Biden's critics, what did Biden do wrong? What would you have had Biden do differently?

Now before one answers, consider this. So far the Afghan War has lasted 20 years. Little, if anything, has been accomplished. Over 6,000 Americans have been killed, troops and contractors. Over three times that were seriously wounded. So far the war has cost the American government two trillion dollars.

Is there anyone who wants to prolong this war? I ask Biden's critics again to answer the two questions above.

Two weeks from now, if the media allows it, Americans will have forgotten all about Afghanistan. We have our own very serious problems at home, not the least of which is the viral delta variant which is causing havoc, hospitalizations, and deaths.

Two weeks from now Americans will simply be happy the Afghan war is over.

1. I have already answered the questions of Biden's wrongdoings, and in detail. Read the thread before posting.

2. As of July 27, 2018, there have been 2,372 U.S. military deaths, and 4 Department of Defense civilian deaths in the War in Afghanistan, not "Over 6,000 Americans"

3. Yes, the war should continue, for the same reasons that it began >>

A. All it would take for Al Qaeda to return to Afghanistan, and resume having it as a breeding ground for terrorism, is what we're seeing right now. The removal of US and NATO troops.
B. if/whenever the rather fragile Pakistani government were TO FALL to jihadist elements, those jihadists would then have possession of Pakistan's 100+ nuclear warheads. To prevent that from happening, the plan has been to keep US troops close by in Afghanistan, where they could quickly enter Pakistan, and seize the nukes, and secure them away from the jihadists.

4. Americans will have forgotten all about Afghanistan, IF there are no new Islamic terrorist attacks here, which trace directly back to Taliban and/or Al Qaeda, or ISIS, using Afghanistan as a bas of operations, which as things now stand, there very well may be. Possibly, (if not likely).

"The Democrat lockdowns fucked up the economy for the purpose of nullifying Trump's # 1 campaign issue (the economy) away"

LOLOL

You're such a retarded, senile curmudgeon. So Trump is a Democrat, huh, gramps??

"My administration is recommending that all Americans, including the young and healthy, work to engage in schooling from home when possible, avoid gathering in groups of more than 10 people, avoid discretionary travel and avoid eating and drinking in bars, restaurants, and public food courts."~ Donald Trump, 3.16.2020​

The lockdowns are DEMOCRAT,...and YOU KNOW IT _ as I said the purpose was to take the economy away from Trump as a campaign issue. Trump was a bit slow to catch on, but like all other Republicans, he did. Ho hum.

 

[skye]

I wholeheartedly agree with the OP that the Cretin in Thief aka Biden is totally incompetent in foreign affairs!

With the million of hordes from south of the border coming in, that in itself is a reason for the idiot to resign.

And now this moron is bringing 30.000 Afghans to the US, to Wisconsin, to Texas and now Kemp said to Georgia too.

Can you guess who are they going to vote for?

Yes, you guessed it.

America is fucked.

 

[Oddball]

Rarely has there been a US president that has shown more incompetence in Foreign Affairs in just his first few months, than what we are witnessing with the pitiful Biden administration. It is in a word, UGLY.

This minute, hundreds if not thousands, of good Afghans are being slaughtered by terrorist Taliban, in what was fully avoidable. President Trump, in his (I think ill-advised) wish to remove all US troops from Afghanistan, at least set it up so this removal would be peaceful and orderly.

The February 2020 Doha Agreement that he engineered with the Taliban, required US troops to be removed by May 1, 2021. Everything was all set for the Taliban takeover to at least be peaceful. Enter Joe "Botch" Biden into the picture, and the whole thing turned into the mess that it is. Biden allowed the May 1st deadline to go by, with US troops still in place in Afghanistan. Goodbye agreement.

Biden also foolishly claims that that Washington had accomplished its mission in the region by killing Osama bin Laden and depriving al Qaeda of its sanctuary in Afghanistan, and had nothing to gain by perpetuating its military deployments in the country. FALSE! Who is naive enough to think that the reason why US troops have been fighting there for 20 years, is now suddenly solved ? Who, other than Joe Biden, that is.

Are we to think that for some reason, now in 2021, al Qaeda will not use the country as a base for their terrorist operations ? Training camps ? Bomb-making schools ? Bomb-making factories (possibly eve nuclear) ?

Who is naive enough to think that half of Afghanistan's population (females) won't be subjected to severe mistreatment (including executions) by the Taliban rulers ? I spent just 5 days in Afghanistan, and was horrified and disturbed by the almost constant sound of women screaming, resulting from wife beating, as advocated in the Koran (4:34), and that was while US troops were there. Who is naive enough to think that once again, as before, women will not be executed in the street, for reading a book, attending a class, or leaving her house unescorted by a man ?

Biden claims that >> "an endless American presence in the middle of another country’s civil conflict was not acceptable to me.” One of the prime requirements for a POTUS, is to accept reality, and one of those realities is the responsibility of the president to PROTECT the American people. In this case, that means an endless presence of US troops in Afghanistan, as long as that county is a threat to US national security, and it most certainly is.

Biden's miscalculations are adding up. “I think it is damning for him to have created this situation in his first significant action as commander in chief,” said Ryan Crocker, who served as the U.S. ambassador to Afghanistan during the Obama administration and has worked under Democratic as well as Republican presidents. “It’s an unforced error, and as an American I am deeply concerned.”

Biden just recently, stated that with 300,000 Afghan troops, trained by US military, the Taliban were not a threat to overthrow the current Afghan government. What he grossly miscalculated is that despite the Afghan troops having the advantage in numbers (4 to 1), airplanes, equipment and training compared to the Taliban, there is the subject of willingness to fight. Richard Fontaine, a former foreign-policy adviser to the late Sen. John McCain and the chief executive officer of the Center for American Security, a think tank, said it well >> "“All of that is true, but it comes down to will. And it turns out the Afghan military’s will to fight for the government was bound up in our will to remain supportive of that government, and present on the ground.”

Take away US troops and the Afghan military ceases to exist. This has been known for quite some time, without going to Afghanistan for 5 days, and seeing it up close.

Biden's Afghanistan Exit Raises Questions About His Foreign-Policy Record (msn.com)

Incompetence?.....I don't think so.

He (actually his fascist handlers) are flooding the nation with more "refugees".

Plan is working perfectly.

 

[Concerned American]

Taliban seem reluctant to engage U.S. troops

They are abiding by the Trump agreement in spite of the fact that Biden violated it by not pulling out in May. The moron Biden couldn't find his ass with both hands in the daylight with a flashlight.

 

[Faun]

Wow. Talk about brain damaged. I post a perfectly SENSIBLE post, about a bad GDP being caused by the pandemic, and a very good GDP caused by reopening and business expansion.

And then you, LOL, post a perfectly NONSENSIBLE post, attributing both GDPs (good & bad) to the pandemic.

Pheeeew! Is there a pediatrician in the house ? This little boy needs help, in a hurry.

Nah, you lied. You blamed Pelosi & Democrats for the shutdowns; when in fact, it was Trump who first recommended states shutdown.

 

[Faun]

I'm glad that you agreed that the blood is on Biden's hands. And although I agree that "Trump didn't have to make a deal with the Taliban to pull all of our troops out this year.", (and I really think he should not have), at least his deal contained the good proviso that the Taliban >> "will not use the soil of Afghanistan to threaten the security of the United States, and its allies"

This could have protected Americans & Afghans both, if Biden had not fcked it up, by allowing US troops to remain in Afghanistan, after May 1, 2021.

Biden then further botched the whole thing by allowing Americans and certain Afghans (ex. interpreters) to remain in Afghanistan all the way to mid-August. Getting those people out should have been his absolute # 1 priority in January, when the Taliban were in Pakistan, instead of during the combat season (summer).

BUT NO! Biden was preoccupied in January with reversing Trump's rule, with as many executive orders as he could do, bolstering Democrat Party power, many pertaining to immigration, and the Mexican border. These blunders are why foreign countries are seeing Biden as inept, and unqualified to be POTUS and leader of the free world.

CNN Launches Scathing Attack of Joe Biden Over Afghanistan Speech: 'Hollow Words'

Despite your hysterics and poor choice of a source, not a single American life has been lost during this end to that war.

 

[Faun]

Semantics games. I was not in combat per se, but I flew over the combat repeatedly, which some people would say was being in combat, since there was some risk factor. Others would say no, not combat. Whatever. Ho hum.

Actually, some people have said just going through the infiltration course in Army boot camp, is "combat", since there is live machine gun fire, and you could easily get killed.

Don't you just love how these never-served know-it-alls like to mouth off about military things ?

LOLOLOL

Yeah, the semantics of you being in combat before you weren't.

 

[Faun]

You numbskull. The deal did not begin until May 1. Try reading it.

Moron, the deal began in March, 2020, with the U.S. committed to brokering a prisoner exchange between the Afghan governmentand the Taliban.

 

[Faun]

The lockdowns are DEMOCRAT,...and YOU KNOW IT _ as I said the purpose was to take the economy away from Trump as a campaign issue. Trump was a bit slow to catch on, but like all other Republicans, he did. Ho hum.

Dumbfuck, I quoted Trump recommending America shutdown. Your senility is not my problem.

 

[protectionist]

Faun, the little pervert, you seem really angry tonight......

(snicker)

According to psychologists, the anger/hostility is preceded by FEAR.

 

[protectionist]

Nah,

He'll deny he ever wrote it or threaten to sue me or something like always does.

Wrong. Already refuted that. Ho hum. Yawn***

 

[protectionist]

LOL

That's your read as you watch me laugh at you imbeciles?

You're crazier than ever, dickless delusional dale.

Your laughs mean nothing. They are in every post you post, as well as calling everyone who disagrees with you "crazy" & "delusional". No one in USMB does that except you. More evidence of your deranged, fear/hostility/imbalance.

 

[protectionist]

Moron, the deal began in March, 2020, with the U.S. committed to brokering a prisoner exchange between the Afghan governmentand the Taliban.

HA HA. Pheeew. I was talking the Taliban's obligation to cease "to threaten the security of the US & its allies" How could that begin until the US has met it's obligation to withdraw all troops, by May 1, 2020 ? Get it ?

Global Times (China): "The American failures in Afghanistan bring our unification with Taiwan closer. Taiwan should think, looking at Kabul, whether the Americans will fight for it"

Exactly. This started with Obama's sucking up to his fellow Muslim buddies in Iran.

Shahada, dudes.

 

[protectionist]

Dumbfuck, I quoted Trump recommending America shutdown. Your senility is not my problem.

OH, you quoted Trump, did you ? OH, OH, OH!!! So now we're all supposed to shut up because little boy Faun quoted Trump about lockdowns. Hear that USMB posters ? You can't say another word now about the lockdowns. Nope. None. Zero, Nada.

Well, since we are all now not allowed to speak about lockdowns, we'll just let President Trump speak about them, Covid, and the economy >>

"If I listened totally to the scientists, we would right now have a country that would be in a massive depression instead — we’re like a rocket ship. Take a look at the numbers."
(President Trump, Oct. 18, 2020)

“Biden wants to LOCKDOWN our Country, maybe for years. Crazy! There will be NO LOCKDOWNS. The great American Comeback is underway!!!”
(President Trump, Nov. 1, 20202)

“Joe Biden is promising to delay the vaccine and turn America into a prison state—locking you in your home while letting far-left rioters roam free. The Biden Lockdown will mean no school, no graduations, no weddings, no Thanksgiving, no Christmas, no Fourth of July”
(President Trump, Nov, 2, 2020)

These anti-lockdown quotes reflect the reopening of the economy IN RED STATES, which brought about the greatest quarter increase in GDP growth 33.1% in US history, (exactly as I said).

No charge for the tutoring. I sympathize with information-deprived victims of leftist OMISSION media. Poor souls.

Better start watching Newsmax, Faun. This is for trying to bullshit us. 30 lashes.

Incompetence?.....I don't think so.

He (actually his fascist handlers) are flooding the nation with more "refugees".

Plan is working perfectly.

They will do ANYTHING (no matter how harmful to America), if it means more votes for Democrats (they think). And why do they care so little about what happens to America ? It's because they're not actually AMERICANS. They're GLOBALISTS.

Obama illustrated it in his infamous speech in Germany, when he said >> "I am a citizen of the world."

In a retort to that, Virgil Goode (whom I voted for president in 2012) said >> "You're not supposed to be a citizen of the world. You are a citizen of, and president of the United States. You're supposed to be representing the AMERICAN PEOPLE, not the world."

Well said.

 

[protectionist]

They are abiding by the Trump agreement in spite of the fact that Biden violated it by not pulling out in May. The moron Biden couldn't find his ass with both hands in the daylight with a flashlight.

They're sometimes abiding by it, sometimes not. There have been instances of Taliban killing Afghan soldiers, and now there are reports of Taliban going house to house looking for pro-US Afghans and anti-Sharia law women. Burning girls' schools, following up on revenge lists, What you see in Kabul, with journalist cameras all around, is different than what is happening in rural areas,

The people trying to get on US planes aren't doing that for no reason. I suspect as time goes by, these creeps are going to get worse and worse, with Al Qaeda coming back in as well as a resurgence of ISIS.

These 2 videos are short in length, but important, to know what's going on >>

 

[protectionist]

Nah, you lied. You blamed Pelosi & Democrats for the shutdowns; when in fact, it was Trump who first recommended states shutdown.

Yeah I BLAME (present tense) Obama & Fauci for staring the China virus in the first place by funding the Wuhan lab (Strike 1)

Yeah, I blame Pelosi - the entire year, she refused to allow Stimulus checks to go out, the idea being to shutdown the economy, make the numbers look bad, and take away Trump's best campaign issue (the economy). (Strike 2)

Yeah, I blame Democrats for shutting down the economy continually in blue states, even after Trump and Republicans advocated opening it up (as my quotes on Post # 177 showed) (Strike 3)

And you think you can use one little quote from Trump, very early on (March 2020), before the whole thing got focused, and that can wash away everything that ensued, as I just described. I would say "nice try", except it wasn't.
