Is he dead?
Is he dead?
But in capitals across Europe, from London to Berlin, Afghanistan has soured the sweetness of Joe Biden's honeymoon. It's not the fact of the withdrawal itself that has rankled but the US's lack of coordination with allies, particularly since the Nato mission at the time of the drawdown comprised troops from 36 countries, three-quarters of whom were non-American, leading to an international scramble to evacuate.
The German deployment in Afghanistan was its first major combat mission since World War II, so the frustration at how it ended runs deep. Armin Laschet, Germany's conservative candidate for chancellor ahead of elections later this month, called the US withdrawal "the greatest debacle that Nato has experienced since its foundation".

For Europe's leaders, the manner of the American withdrawal - and Joe Biden's comments that the US would no longer send troops to "remake other countries" - has echoes of Donald Trump's "America First" policy.
But while there's frustration here over Washington's lack of communication with EU capitals, it is perhaps too early to tell how much that will dent the widespread relief over the change of US administrations.

So now a mission success is with the president getting shot?
He was shot..........that in itself is a mission failure.

Again, Doha accords stated we would pull out. Any leader who claims they had "no idea" just wasn't paying much attention.

That is not true.
A former Secret Service agent said that the assassination attempt on Donald Trump represented a "failure" for his security team.
Tim McCarthy, who in 1981 defended then-President Ronald Reagan from a gunman, was giving his assessment of the Saturday shooting to Chicago-based outlet WGN-TV.
"It's a failure. Plain and simple," McCarthy said. "When President Regan was shot, that was a failure too."

What, in your little mind, constitutes SS having a successful mission?

Their charge not being dead.
Their charge playing golf 36 hours after an attempted assignation
Well you go find a SS agent and see if they view the operation with your optimism.
