Hegseth Will Investigate Afghanistan Withdrawl

[Blisterfinger]

Yea well, he did dodge spending the rest of his life in a Federal prison when he won. I'll grant you that.

He is much more successful than you. Why is that?

 

[Clipper]

He is much more successful than you. Why is that?

I just said that he dodged prison. What more do you want? Aren't you proud of that?

I said he's much more successful than you are. Does that make you feel bad?

There were no deaths for months, there was peace, no war.

I think you are a little delusional. The war continued all through Trump's term, and 65 service members died. Americans withdrew from the fighting, but it was still going on, which is how the Taliban regained much of the country.

Face it, democrats wanted the Taliban to rule Afghanistan. Democrats wanted to remove our airbase in Afghanistan so that we were not a threat to the neighboring country of Iran.

We don't need an airbase to threaten Iran, we have aircraft carriers (not to mention bases in other places. the problem for Democrats is that after we killed Bin Laden, we really had no good reason to still be there. But Obama and Trump kicked the can down the road and made it Biden's problem.

Why did we wipe out the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11 is your question? A better question is why we allowed terrorists to take over a country and then attack us on 9/11

News flash. Some countries are going to pick forms of government we don't like.

Here's a better question. Why did Ronnie Raygun fund religious fanatics (including recruiting Arabs like Bin Laden) to fight in Afghanistan because those dirty, stinking commies were teaching girls how to read?

Bachi Bazi, the rape of boys, children, is widespread in the middle east. I first heard of it in 1981.

I'm sure you've heard all sorts of horror stories about people who are different than you.

I grew up Catholic. You never wanted to alone with a priest in a room.

I grew up Catholic. You never wanted to alone with a priest in a room

Why, you can't say no?

I grew up catholic. I was an alter boy. I knew 5 other alter boys. None of us had any problem being alone with a priest.

That you bring this up as a stereotype says more about you than catholic priests

Seeing how you brought this up, if catholic priests are so bad why did Kamala Harris drop the investigation into catholic priests in sab fransisco when she was tje district attorney

Your entire comment is false, fabricated fiction. Feel free to link to something that is credible if you think differently

News flash
Countries that pick governments that call for our destruction, those governments have to be destroyed
It is not matter lo what we like. Slavery, rape, murder, drug dealing, and terrorism must be fought, even if you think we should tolerate it

For months no deaths is a fact
65 deaths can hardly be called a war
The Taliban regained the country because democrats gave them the country.

 

[my2¢]

It's sure to say that Trump's bowing to the Taliban wasn't at all any factor.

Two priests in my parish were accused of molesting kids. It wasn't a stereotype.

At the Catholic HS I went to (attended by no less than four mayors of Chicago), one of the lay teachers was fired after it was found out he was showing gay porn to the sophomore football team.

You can stop beating up Harris now on fake issues, the election's over.

Biden only had 13 deaths.
The Taliban regained the country because most Afghans agree with them.

When you go down to the recruiting station and sign up, then you can have a say in where we send people because they hurt our feelings.

Again, we should have pulled out of Afghanistan right after Bin Laden slept with the fishes.

It is when you turn it into a general statement insinuating all priests

 

[mudwhistle]

It will be released right after Trump releases Obama's birth certificate.

Sounds like a pretty good idea.

 

[elektra]

Biden only had 13 deaths.

Yes, 13 deaths after months of no deaths because Trump negotiated the beginning of peace talks.

13, needless deaths. 13 deaths because of the worst surrender in history

Unbelievable that democrats surrendered to terrorists.
Unbelievable that the democrats would surrender, another first

 

[elektra]

You have a warped definition of 'success'.

Not at all, you are trolling, flaming.

Hegesth is successful, more so than you

 

[mikegriffith1]

Yes, our disgraceful, inexcusably bungled withdrawal from Afghanistan should be investigated. Nobody was ever held accountable for that needless debacle.

Many people forget that Biden committed an equally appalling blunder when he was put in charge of the withdrawal from Iraq. His bungling withdrawal enabled ISIS to take over a huge area in Iraq. Incredibly, Biden did not insist on a residual force to ensure a smooth transition to complete Iraqi sovereignty.

Leaving a force by the very definition is not a withdrawal.

 

[Mack The Finger]

Feel free to share all the details.

Also explain how it wastes taxes if Hegseth investigates. (He doesn't get paid any extra to investigate).

Gee OMB was impeached twice....wasn't that something, with zero change of being removed as president.

 

[JoeB131]

Uh, the coverup of Pedophile priests went up all the way to the Vatican. They knew what was going on.

In fact, how could they avoid it?

"Help Wanted. Must have no sexual interest in Adult Women. Willing to spend lots of time with young people".

The only way you'd be less likely to attract pedos would be to advertise in the NAMBLA Times.

Or to be a little more generous, here's what happened in the day. Back in the good old days, when little Timmy started singing show tunes, they carted him off to a seminary. When little Sally decided she liked scented candles and practical shoes, they sent her off to be a novitiate.

So, instead of having these gay folks come to terms with their sexuality, they were told to be full of self-loathing and froze their development at "Post-Puberty". This means when they unleashed them back into the wild, they were still sexually immature with other sexually immature people.

Thankfully, the gay liberation movement came along, and membership in these orders shrank.

As an aside, I was watching The Blues Brothers with my sister, her husband, and their daughters once. Then you had the scene with Sr. Mary Stigmata. The Boomers all thought this was fucking hilarious. My Millennial nieces were horrified by the scene! They never encountered these pyscho nuns, so they had no idea what we were laughing at.

Yes, 13 deaths after months of no deaths because Trump negotiated the beginning of peace talks.

The surrender happened at Doha.
By Trump.

I'm not sure if you are stupid or just disingenuous.

Unbelievable that democrats surrendered to terrorists.

What did you think was going to happen. Let's say the pullout happened as originally planned in May and the were no casualties because ISIS-K didn't get involved.

What do you think would have happened? Do you think the Taliban would have nicely sat down with the Afghan Government (whose troops were already switching sides) and negotiated a power-sharing arrangement?

Um, here's the problem.

The only reason why it was a debacle is that we spent 20 years in that country with no plan of what to do when we left. We knew damned well when we started pulling out, the Taliban would fill in the vacuum.

Because most Afghans are fine with what the Taliban wanted for Afghanistan, this is what you all don't get.

Biden wasn't in charge of anything with Iraq. Now you are just making stuff up. Hey, did OJ ever find the real killer?

 

[Hollie]

No, Trump withdrew critical support of the Afghan government security forces. He should have withdrawn all troops when he signed off on DOA.

Trump never intended to withdraw all troops. He wanted a force of about 2,500 to remain at Baghram.
