Do you approve or disapprove of Joe Biden's performance on Afghanistan?

[j-mac]

What would have been a good execution? The Taliban could smell the rotting meat of teh Ghani regime, and they closed in.

Get the civilians out first. Blow up military bases and equipment. Take care to remove those that helped us rather than abandon them.
it’s not rocket science.

But then, I wouldn’t expect a supporter of this nations enemies to think these things through.

Yep.......but the facts on Iran Contra are a bit blurred.
Reagan supported the Contras.....but it's not certain he personally authorized any deals with Iran to help fund the Contras.
The same cannot be said about Obama.
Obama authorized the transfer of surface-to-air missiles to terrorist groups in Libya. Unfortunately for Obama.....one of them was used to attempt to shoot down a US chopper in Afghanisan. Benghazi was the result of a coverup to hide this from becoming public. The trade of 5 Taliban generals and the Iran deal was also a coverup of this deal gone wrong. The Russian Collusion scandal was hatched to keep the Trump Adm from exposing Obama's criminal activity. Hillary's illegal server was an attempt to get around record keeping that must be done in any administration....and was authorized by Obama.

I don't believe that Obama was responsible for Benghazi, and Hillary's email were not covered up, personal emails. The Russian Collusion scandal was actually a scandal. Tramp was involved in Russian money, and he was to build a hotel there.

Benghazi was an attempt to get those missiles back. The people on the ground were supposed to be sacrificed. Obama was probably hoping all of them would get killed to coverup his screwup. He was desperate to make the episode go away because Iran was blackmailing him.

Hillary's emails weren't personal emails, idiot. If they were the NSA never would have redacted most of the information they contained. And Russian Collusion was a fake scandal. Obama was spying on the Trump campaign and Russian Collusion was designed to keep Trump from investigating Obama and Hillary along with various high officials in the DoJ.
Trump was thinking about building in Russia and dumped the idea because it was considered a bad investment. Too much instability and crime. Trump explored similar options in numerous countries. Doing business with China or Russia while outside of the government isn't against the law. Doing business with them while in office is against the law.....which is what Biden is guilty of.

Xiden should have either followed the Trump agreement and got everyone and everything out by May 1st, or re-negotiated the agreement.
Xiden's dithering and belief that the AFG army could win w/o the US was moronic.
The US did not "lose" the war, it wasn't a US war, it was an AFG civil war where we were helping the government. We stopped fighting a year ago, we didn't surrender, we could have left with our dignity if Putin's Whore had a functioning brain.

Don't go down her rabbit hole, we're kicking the crap out of the retard's democrat admin for total incompetence.

He did follow the trump agreement.

No, he is ending a war.....

So the guy Trump freed from prison to negotiate the Doha agreement could assume power of the Taliban like he wanted.....you didn't complain about that then, so shut THE ENTIRE **** UP NOW...

Mullah Baradar was being held in Pakistan....and the Pakistanis released him....not Trump.

Abdul Ghani Baradar - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

Despite repeated claims that Pakistan would deliver Baradar to Afghanistan if formally asked to do so,[34] and that his extradition was underway,[35] he was expressly excluded from the list of Taliban leaders planned to be released by Pakistan in November 2012.[36] Abdul Qayyum Zakir became the Taliban military leader after Baradar's arrest. Nine Taliban leaders, not including Baradar, were released on 23 November 2012.[37]




US representative Zalmay Khalilzad (left) and Baradar (right) sign the Agreement for Bringing Peace to Afghanistan in Doha, Qatar, on 29 February 2020

On 25 October 2018, the Taliban confirmed that Pakistan released Baradar.[38] He was subsequently appointed to be the chief of the Taliban's diplomatic office in Doha, Qatar.[39] Washington special envoy Zalmay Khalilzad claimed that Baradar was released at the request of the United States.[9]

Irrelevant. There should have been no deal with the taliban, nor should the trump administration released a talban criminal.

 

[Desperado]

What would have been a good execution? The Taliban could smell the rotting meat of teh Ghani regime, and they closed in.

A Good Exit Stategy Would Be:
1. Have a plan
2. Get Civilians out BEFORE the military is gone
3, DESTROY all equipment not taken out
4. Burn sensitive materials
5. Pull out the troops
6.. Destroy the US Embassy
I do not think you can find one sane person that would argue we should have stayed in Afghanistan

Trump had none of these things when he made his agreement.

You haven't thought anything thru.

The Taliban have already removed 83,000 land mines.

However, this is a walk in the park compared to how Nixon and Kissinger handled Vietnam

Pretty much the same except Nixon was trying to satisfy millions of revolting leftists. Look where it got him

Benghazi had NOTHING to do with weapons. The US was trying to identify tribes who would support the Idris constitution.

Where you in on the agreement, or are you speaking out of your ass again?
