Oh my God. Have you ever been to the Middle East? Anywhere in the Middle East, let alone Afghanistan?

This was a forgone conclusion when Trump Surrendered to the Taliban. Every single veteran who's ever been there knew that the moment Trump rolled over and gave them what they wanted they would start murdering our people. I suspect even Trump knew that, but he probably wanted to set his buddy Putin up to take advantage of the carnage and make money with the Taliban later. It was always about money with Trump. Don't be fooled into thinking we are where we are today for any other reason.

MORE of the blaming Trump, for Biden's failure. Nice distraction.

Taliban Terrorists Take 20 Children Hostage — Give Fathers 4 Hours to Surrender or the Children Will Be Killed (VIDEO)

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/202...-killed-video/

Republic TV, an Indian broadcasting station is reporting via live stream video that the Taliban has taken 20 children hostage.

The fathers of the children are Members of the Northern Alliance which is the last remaining Afghani resistance stronghold courageously fighting the Taliban.

This is taking place in Panjshir Province whose topography provides a strong natural defensive position against the encroaching terrorists.

The Taliban has given the fathers 4 hours..
Um, it was Trump who argued that, not biden.

Biden and those who voted for him = blood on their hands. It’s that simple. I would feel terrible if I had voted for him knowing he has enabled the torture and deaths of many and the flat out lack of human rights that is happening there. I did not like trump, but I’ll take his loud, crass mouth any day over what Biden has done.

On another note: American cities in despair, homelessness rises, flooding in the south, heat in the west, murder, rape, robbery, but Afghan tribes-people putting aside their differences and on their way to help Americans in crisis......NOT.

Trump surrendered? Anyone outside of New York Times and CNN tell you that? He actually sent more troops in there early on. The peace deal would be null and void if the taliban broke their end of the deal. In no way did it hand over Afghanistan to the taliban which is exactly what Biden has done. Your man screwed up royally. Time to admit it and deal with it.

And the only think American people are concerned about is what processor will be in the next iPhone and what they can post next on tic toc.

Sorry but you have that backwards. Trump negotiated with the Taliban, released 5000 of them from prison, and left it for Joe to clean up the mess. Granted, Joe and our military should have done a better job, but we need to remember that it was Trump who set this whole ×÷=+** in motion.

Valid point.

If Biden had run the 911 WTC rescue, he would have expected civilians to escort firemen to safety before worrying about saving themselves.
