    Let them figure it out. The correct response to being attacked as a result is a thorough carpet bombing for a few days straight.

    Turkey builds wall on Iranian border to stop influx of refugees from Afghanistan

    Have Democrats told them that walls are racist yet?

    I just want Biden to now own his decision and what he’s saying rather than trying to blame Trump for somehow forcing him to do this. He’s a coward which is why you like him.
    The blame for Afghan falls from Bush all the way to Biden. Biden royally fucked up the withdraw.
    Blaming Trump for his own decision to withdraw is bullshit imo.
    I’m honestly glad we are out of Afghanistan but should have been done better though.
    Saying that, honestly any withdraw, no matter how they did it, would have been an absolute shit show anyways.

    I think we should give more money to the government so they can fix climate change and put them in charge of everyone's healthcare.

    President Biden struck a defiant tone yesterday, announcing without regret that the withdrawal from Afghanistan was proceeding. Uncompromising leadership against the face of establishment opposition to ending of the Afghanistan Occupation, ceding to American desire to end a costly war supporting a feckless, weak Afghanistan government.

    What we're seeing on the right and left are shitting on a President who made a firm commitment. The Left feels Afghanistan can be rescued, but doesn't know how. The Right fears the reduction of income from their defense industry lobbyists. Both wrong.

    Afghanistan originally had a mission to remove Al Queda, it was successful and mission was complete. The secondary mission, to install a democratic government and nation build was a 20 year failure, which should have never happened. Tens of millions of dollars are sitting in the pockets of government officials who embezzled an fled, or are now in flight. Tens of BILLIONS in equipment are in the hands of the Taliban when the Afghanistan government, their police, their military showed their belly and surrendered.

    Afghanistan failing is the story, not the President who against demamds of establishment military and war profiteering lobbyists finally pulled us out of the failed mission.

    You mean President Trumps plan to withdraw right? Even Biden said it was Trump's plan to fully withdraw. So again, you're welcome for President Trump being so forward thinking, and attempting to stop the military industrial complex and endless wars.

    It's the how that Biden fucked up so much... so really... does he deserve any credit?

    Got it. Biden responsible for Taliban taking over and everything bad, Trump responsible for ending war. Thank you for your partisan filter.

    Except, oh right Trump isn't commander and chief anymore. Biden's now in charge of the military and culpable, good or bad.
