if a Taliban attack on America happens, Trump is right in the middle of it! i'm not absolving Biden, he continued Trump's policy, but Trump is also to blame for this deadly disaster


H.R. McMaster said Trump and Pompeo surrendered Afghanistan to the Taliban. If only we had some photographic evidence. Oh wait, we do...

Biden,

Was caught in a catch 22... Each option was bad...

Biden got Afghan with 7,500 on the ground could have stayed and that would mean a massive increase in US boots on the ground... This would have resulted in just continuing the madness that went on for 20 years prior.

Biden had no ability to negotiate, Trump had given away the farm in previous deals... There was no safe passage for US Citizens or friendlies... Miller had effectively banned US friendlies to come to America. The Trump deal was very bad and Biden got the hospital pass...
Biden extended the deadline as much as he could without starting an escalation and thus far more deaths...

Was there mistakes? Yes but the main one was total lack of preparation done in 2020 by 2021 it was far too late. Think Biden took the less shitty options but it was shitty..

If only he didn't steal the election, none of this would have happened

2500? More like 1400.

I'm doubtful the potato even knew all that much about it. I doubt he even has the cognizance to understand where he even is right now. His handlers and the apparatchiks of the DNC criminal syndicate installed a senile puppet that is drugged in order to appear in public at all. Otherwise he has to be hidden from the public as often as possible and no matter how briefly they can drag this potato out, he says of does something stupid.

I'm just waiting for someone to get complacent and old Joe escapes his confines and appears in front of some cameras long enough to do something outrageous, like tear off his clothes and start dry humping a "journalist" hag or even a statue. Maybe take a shit right there in front of people or play helicopter with his ding a ling.

You just know something so fucked up is on the horizon if anyone ever fails to keep that idiot secured.

Here's what the Generals said: Kinda long but....

"
At our peak in 2011, we had 97,000 US troops alongside 41,000 NATO troops in Afghanistan. 10 years later, when Ambassador [inaudible 00:25:30] signed the Doha agreement with Mullah Baradar on 29, February, 2020, the United States had 12,600 troops with 8,000 NATO and 10,500 contractors in Afghanistan. This has been a 10 year multi administration draw down, not a 19 month retrograde or 17 day non-combatant evacuation operation. Under the Doha agreement, the United States would begin to withdraw its forces contingent upon the Taliban meeting certain conditions, which would lead to a political agreement between the Taliban and the government of Afghanistan. There were seven conditions applicable to the Taliban and eight to the United States. While the Taliban did not attack the United States forces, which was one of the conditions, it failed to fully honor any other condition under the Doha agreement. And perhaps most importantly, for the United States national security, the Taliban has never renounced their linkages with Al Qaeda or broke their affiliation with them.

General Milley: (26:33)
We, the United States adhered to every condition. In the fall of 2020, my analysis then was that an accelerated withdrawal without meeting specific and necessary conditions risks losing the substantial gains made in Afghanistan, would potentially damage US worldwide credibility and could precipitate a general collapse of the Afghan security forces and the Afghan government, resulting in a complete Taliban takeover or a general civil war. That analysis was a year ago. Based on my advice and the advice of the commanders at the time, then Secretary of Defense Esper submitted a memorandum on nine November recommending that we maintain the US forces, which were then at about 4,500 in Afghanistan until conditions were met for further reductions. Two days later on 11 November, I received an unclassified signed order directing the United States military to withdraw all forces from Afghanistan by 15 January, 2021. After further discussion regarding the risks associated with such a withdrawal, all the order was rescinded. On 17 November, we received a new order to reduce troop levels to 2,500 plus enabling forces no later than 15 January.

General Milley: (27:54)
When President Biden was inaugurated, there were approximately 3,500 US troops, 5,400 NATO and 6,300 contractors in Afghanistan, tasked to train, advise and assist a small contingent of counter terrorism forces. And the strategic situation was stalemate. The Biden administration through the national security council process conducted a rigorous interagency review of the situation in Afghanistan and February, March, and April. During this process, the views of all of the joint chief of staff, all of us, the CENTCOM commander, General McKenzie, US48 Commander General Miller and myself were all given serious consideration by the administration. We provided a broad range of options and our assessment of their potential outcomes. We couched that in cost, benefit, risk to force, risk to mission, all of that was evaluated against the national security objectives of the United States.

General Milley: (28:52)
On 14 April, the President of the United States, President Biden announced his decision

It would have been interesting to see the other time line if Trump had remained president. But, alas, no one knows how to do that. Yes, Trump was talking to the Taliban and wanted out. I seriously doubt though that Trump would have just sat back and let the Taliban take over the country like they did under Biden, who didn't even listen to his own advisors on the subject.
