We should have withdrawn on May 1st like Trump originally agreed to. Afghanistan was going to fall anyway. Any argument to the contrary ignores the past 20 years and is stupid neocon brainworm shit. We were never going to nation-build them out of being a despotic tribal region.

WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden plans to pull all military forces out of Afghanistan by Sept. 11, ending U.S. presence in the Middle Eastern nation by the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks that spurred America's longest war.
The move will extend military presence in Afghanistan beyond the May 1 withdrawal date previously negotiated by former President Donald Trump.

Republicans, many who criticized Trump's plans to leave Afghanistan, quickly slammed Biden's timeline. Republican Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, said it would be a "grave mistake" and an "abdication of American leadership."
Boo hoo, no more Foreverwar.

You had better pay your guild dues before you forget. You are 113 months behind.
