I know TMZ isn’t really a reputable source, but Joe Biden’s promise to hunt down ISIS-K terrorists was probably one of the least emotional (and least convincing) parts of his speech. He showed the most emotion when he was blaming Trump for everything.
But I know TMZ and others will always do the best they can to help Democrats out.
Will be pretty hard to do with no one willing to provide HUMINT to carry it out. We've left them to their own devices which will probably end with a bullet, machete, or gallon of gas.
It’s so pathetic that he keeps bragging about the number that has been evacuated. No ****, he created this mess forcing thousands running to leave for their lives. In today’s speech, he even made this statement before paying respects to the fallen soldiers. At the end, he got more salty and forceful towards a question from a Foxnews reporter than he probably had against the Taliban.
What’s ironic when he answered that question was that he said the reason their were no casualties since February 2020 is because of Trumps deal with the Taliban not to kill Americans. Umm, I call that a winning deal.
The former guy set this in motion when he and Pompeo agreed to negotiate with the Taliban and negotiated the release of 5,000 Taliban POW's who got right back into the fight. I'm not saying they were wrong but that pretty much put the nail in the coffin for the U.S. military involvement in Afghanistan. The U.S. withdrawal was never going to be easy.
Why do you people keep posting this same crap over and over?
The withdrawal would have been fine if we evacuated civilians before the military, destroyed all the equipment we couldn't remove and coordinated with our NATO allies.
After all that was done, we could simply fly the last planes out without hiccup or regret.
Funny but Trump was supposed to get us into a war - which never came and here in 8 months - Biden is talking about retaliation for a mistake he has to own.
Killing terrorists within Afghanistan would be so much easier to do if we had bases in Bagram and Kandahar.
Also, if Pakistan allowed basing, which they said they would not.
So I’m curious to see how Biden is going to make ISIS-K pay for what they did.
Bottom line, if we are going to do it right, we need bases closer than what we’ve got currently.
