Biden's Failing Afghanistan Withdrawl

[bendog]

Many analysts warned that Biden has been wrong on foreign policy for almost his entire career. It's not surprise Afghanistan has quickly turned into a shit show and Biden is begging the Taliban for mercy. Wow, just wow.

yes, 20 years in Afghan was a stroke of genius. God damn Biden for figuring that one out.

Lib please if Trump were president during this mess you people would be screaming 24/7 calling for his impeachment and you damn well know it.

 

[protectionist]

I don't know, how many?

I can tell you for sure that many thousands of American lives, limbs and minds were lost over there, far too many young American families were destroyed, and far too many trillions of dollars were wasted.

Because that actually happened.

If AQ, or any other jihadist group, were to acquire a nuclear bomb, that could kill 10 MILLION people in and around New York City in one day. Don't take my word for it, I got this from Obama.

Every time I think of Afghanistan, I think of the scene from The man Who Would Be King where they are playing polo with a human head. These are drooling inbreds, here, and their culture (if you can call it one) preculdes any possibility of western-style democracy.

As with the Arab world which is also inbred beyond redemption, there are only two possibilities for how the countries can operate. They are either run by a strong man type doctator who can keep a lock on all the sectarian violence caused by their being inbreds, or watch the worst religious zealots take over.

BOTH Bush and Obama have conttibuted to the disintegration of the middle east by not recognizing these people are simply not ready for democracy because they spend way too much time fucking their own family members.

Imo that's a bit oversimplistic. But I'd agree that any reading of Kipling (or even noticing what happened to the Soviets) should have dissuaded an even marginally educated president from stationing an occupying force there.

But Muslim countries operate with differing models. Imo some are oddly similar to the division between church and state in Middle Age Europe.

Not genius, just doing what has to be done. Now, because of not having troops there, we enter possibly the most dangerous era in US history, where the anti-US jihad may move from Asia, to our cities. Hopefully, not in nuclear proportions.

Lib please if Trump were president during this mess you people would be screaming 24/7 calling for his impeachment and you damn well know it.

Why. He failed in his syrian pullout, but no one impeached him for that.

And I was a conservative before Reagan, sonny

Trying to blame Trump for Pedo Joe's clusterfuck?

Blame? You are confused. After Trump railed for years that the U.S. should withdraw from Afghanistan, the President cannot fault Trump for the advice he is following just because Trump failed to follow it.

The President even moved up the withdrawal date after Trump said it should be sooner.

Nineteen years is enough.

He had the Taliban set for a Camp David cookout!

 

[Missourian]

Yeah, the thousands of lives, limbs and minds, the trillions of dollars, all wasted on Bush's wars should be ignored so we can focus on what was inevitable from the very beginning.

Maybe...but it is inexcusable that Biden is on vacation while Afghanistan turns into the next fall off Saigon.

I can't blame the man for the prior mess... But I can and do blame him for a lack of leadership during the current catastrophe.

Joe "Francesco Schettino*" Biden somehow accidentally fell into Marine One and is coordinating the rescue from shore...

Bush made a big mistake when he invaded Iraq.

Obama made a BIGGER mistake when he threw Mubarek under the bus. Not only is Egypt more imortant strategically and economically, but was a valuable ally at the time.

This is an editorial from the Washington Examiner, August 12, 2021.

By refusing to use overwhelming air power to blunt the Taliban's rise, Joe Biden is failing to protect American interests in Afghanistan and ultimately undermining national security.

Biden’s failing Afghanistan withdrawal - Washington Examiner

By refusing to use overwhelming air power to blunt the Taliban's rise, President Joe Biden is failing to protect American interests in Afghanistan and ultimately undermining national security. The Taliban clearly hold the current strategic initiative. That said, Afghan forces, especially special...

www.washingtonexaminer.com

I have long told my history students that as soon as U.S. troops withdraw Afghanistan will fall. We tried Vietnamization in the 1970's in South Vietnam and invaded Cambodia to give South Vietnamese Army time to train and take over bulk of the fighting. Then after U.S. troops pulled out the liberals on Capital Hill betrayed the ARVN and South Vietnam fell. We tried the "surge" in Iraq in 2003 and the Iraqi Army got it's ass kicked by ISIS ad soon as U.S. troops left. Obama sent an extra 19,000 troops to Afghanistan in order to knock down Taliban. Now that U.S. troops are leaving... Taliban winning victory after victory. Where the fuck is an Afghan version of Operation Linebacker I and II? Bring out the B-52's and close air support for Afghan Army. Biden is a pussy.

There is a right way and a wrong way to do it. And Veggie Joe always, ALWAYS, chooses the wrong way.

 

[Bush92]

Clinton pulled a couple of quick stunts to deflect from his Monica scandal, but he didn't invade Afghanistan.

9-11 showed he should have.

 

[Bush92]

protectionist

The Gulf States hate Communism. That's why they fought the Communists in Afghanistan. The Taliban were war orphans and were not in existence before 1994. They are NOT a threat to the US .. Strictly internal politics.

Never heard of 9-11?

 

[Bush92]

The left? This is the very action Trump called for.

He wasn't going to cut and run like lost child Joe Biden. Trump would have a contingency plan. Biden has none.
