Not Easy For NATO To Trust Biden

[BlindBoo]

And if you think Trump would not have cut and run from Afghanistan

John McEntee, one of Donald Trump's most-favored aides, handed retired Army Col. Douglas Macgregor a piece of paper with a few notes scribbled on it. He explained: "This is what the president wants you to do."

1. Get us out of Afghanistan.

2. Get us out of Iraq and Syria.

3. Complete the withdrawal from Germany.

4. Get us out of Africa.

It was Nov. 9, 2020 — days after Trump lost his re-election bid, 10 weeks before the end of his presidency and just moments after Macgregor was offered a post as senior adviser to acting Defense Secretary Christopher Miller.

As head of the powerful Presidential Personnel Office, McEntee had Trump's ear. Even so, Macgregor was astonished. He told McEntee he doubted they could do all of these things before Jan. 20.

"Then do as much as you can," McEntee replied.

In Macgregor's opinion, Miller probably couldn't act on his own authority to execute a total withdrawal of U.S. military forces from Afghanistan because he was serving in an acting capacity. If this was for real, Macgregor told McEntee, then it was going to need an order from the president.

The one-page memo was delivered by courier to Christopher Miller's office two days later, on the afternoon of Nov. 11. The order arrived seemingly out of nowhere, and its instructions, signed by Trump, were stunning: All U.S. military forces were to be withdrawn from Somalia by Dec. 31, 2020. All U.S. forces were to be withdrawn from Afghanistan by Jan. 15, 2021.

What the fuck is this? Miller wondered.

Hmmm, Fox don't like Joe.

I never would've guessed.

Putin bought Biden, now we are going to be putin's bitch. Come on right winger or any other liberal, explain this.

 

[jknowgood]

Wrong as usual. The Taliban didn't have to do anything but sit back and wait, cupcake.
tump was handing over the country on a silver platter.

But Biden did it.

But Biden did it.

The alternative was what? Had tump included the Afghan government in the discussions, the chaos may never have happened. And I say MAY.

Make sure our people were out and if you cannot move the weapons. Destroy them. Evan an elementary student knows that.

The Afghan army was weaponized with those weapons, and aircraft were made unusable.

Tump had no plan except to move out. Had the Afghan military stayed the course, the chaos may not have happened, since there would have been weaponized forces to oppose the Taliban.
We obviously did not expect the Afghan army to run, or all weaponry would have been destroyed.
The Taliban took over before we left. "Elementary" has nothing to do with it.

What happened to the military equipment left in Afghanistan?​

Biden knew months in advance that the taliban was going to take over and nobody would let those weapons be with that knowledge.
