The old coulda woulda shoulda argument again. Thiis was Bidens withdraw plan, not Trump's.

BIDEN OWNS IT, lock stock and barrel. Nothing to debate here, but more excuses, to cover Biden’s @#$.

Two trillion dollars wasted, and about 2450 solders and 3800 US contractors dead. End it.

Biden only started reversing Trump's policies his first day in office, so it's not like he wasn't in a hurry or anything.

These deaths will be on Biden.

What bugs me more and more is 20 years of effort to control Al Quaeda/Taliban is lost. Military and CIA advised against a withdrawal. Mattis and McMaster advised against it, quit over the decision. Complete withdrawal is a terrible decision by both Trump and Biden. Biden was so set on getting out of there he's totally botched the withdrawal. This was one Trump decision Biden needed to reverse, regardless of his campaign promises. More I think about it, we should have kept an small force there indefinitely as we have done in other areas of the world. The withdrawal regardless of under whose watch it takes place will prove to be catastrophic on a world stage, give new life to the terrorists, and is truly sickening if one really thinks about it. It should never have happened. Biden talks about our keeping a close watch on future terrorist activity from afar. I doubt that will work well.

Interesting the only fat people in Afghanisan are the Mullahs in the Taliban. Notice the people on the street, the people boarding US planes, Taliban solders who are very fit. They are all skinny. Here and there might be an older woman a bit heavier, but we see no obesity which is so prevalent in the US.

Not one of the Taliban leadership in that picture could walk half a mile. Seems to me the Taliban fighters need to set up a fat farm for its leadership.

I'm not a warmonger, but Al Quaeda and ISIS are. We went in there to decimate Al Quaeda. They now have a new life. A small force to keep a lid on things such as we've done in Iraq seems in order.

Serious question - exactly what should we do going forward when Al Quaeda and ISIS regroup? What is the solution to keep these people away from us if we have no one on the ground over there?

Maybe we should have sent Richard Simmons when we sent the initial troops 20 years ago.
