Another example of listening to the military industrial complex and believing the self-deluded generals. After we killed OBL we should have declared mission accomplished and got out.

All that money spent, lives lost, bodies and minds injured—for this?

I don’t blame Biden. I blame the Pentagon. They milked us for decades and destroyed so many lives.

You know as a Democrat that when you've lost CNN, you've screwed up in a big way.

The look on Antknee "Not Thinkin'" Blinken's face is priceless as Jake Tapper hits him with "how did Joe Biden get this so wrong?"

The video clip says it all -- Joe wishes he could call a lid on his life, especially after he maintained in the clip that what did happen would not happen.



This is what 50 years of being an unaccomplished politician gets you -- nowhere. This is the worst 30 days in Joe Biden's life, which says a lot considering he's been a failure for virtually all of it.

We get out, they rebuild. OBL was hardly their only leader planning attacks against the USA.

Biden throughout his 40+ year political career has never made a right foreign policy decision. He is as much an inept idiot then as he is today. It is truly astonishing how someone as low IQ as Joe Biden has had this long of a career in politics.

How is it shocking ? Has Trapper heard Biden talk yet ? He's a senile old man and not making decisions.

We should have just bombed the crap out of that country 20 years ago and left. How could we ever win a big war if we keep getting our ass beat by small third world countries?

I don’t blame Biden. I blame the Pentagon. They milked us for decades and destroyed so many lives.

As President Eisenhower warned, "beware of the rise of the military-industrial complex".

I see where you are coming from in blaming the Pentagon. They don't stay employed in a peaceful world.

The larger problem is that Biden -- in a rare moment when he was able to string more than 9 words together -- basically said that Afghanistan wouldn't fall when his intelligence committee advisers said it would.

You don't need to be in the intelligence business to see how this was going to end. It didn't help that Biden has been "in hiding" recently. Joe Biden, in hidin'. Something tells me we are going to see a lot more of this for the next 60 days.

Would FOX/ OANN/ Newsmax have been this hard on Trump....the MSM is doing its job here.....much to the disbelief of many on this board.

Before they're beaten or mutilated they'll be sold as sex slaves. Even the little girls.

So the Taliban does not seize it, which will allow a new wave of OBL's II to take over, plan attacks against the USA. Those new camps might team up with US based cells, also.

Killing OBL did not end the war on terror. That war will never end, nor should it, as to think it will allows the next wave to build.

I recall 60 Minutes stories on Terrorist Training Grounds while a certain POTUS was busy with a girl named Monica in the 90s. Now maybe had he asked her to leave his office for a while, we'd have stopped 9-11 in its tracks.

There is a huge penalty for looking the other way regarding sources of Mideast terrorism.
