    Biden is the least Presidential person to hold that office, but don't worry because I am sure Kamala can prove to be even worse should she get the opportunity.

    Whoever advised Biden on this was probably more worried about the right pro nouns being used in our military than anything else. While democrats were more worried about diversity and inclusion, the savages who don’t care about any of that have thousands of hostages to terrorize.

    When Biden was given this plan he must of had someone sitting next to him saying ‘but what about the Americans who are scattered across the country?’ If he didn’t have such a person who would say that then that falls on Biden. If he did and ignored it then that falls on Biden.

    The only thing I can think of is to send a message to the Muslim terrorists that if one American is injured or killed then we will bomb their leaders and keep bombing them until they get the message. Can anyone think of a better idea?

    How come Afghanistan still has internet service and why are the Taliban’s Twitter accounts still active?

    Sending out thoughts and prayers to all of those US citizens and allies who were left behind. I cannot imagine being placed in that position.

    I just listened to the State Dept Presser. They sacrificed a Deputy Sec State who appeared clueless. Her briefing was all about meetings and letters sometime in the future but she said nothing about how they were going to save lives today, right now. I find her concern for insuring all the paperwork is complete in view of the total lack of interest in anything at all at our southern border amusing. I next shifted to the Defense Dept presser which was more to the point.

    The defense dept is now defending their complete lack of serious planning for an immediate victory by the Taliban. They are on defense with the press. I believe the politicians are more responsible than anyone else.

    A Link to an OPINION Piece?:bored:

    "showing more ignorance."
    "This is shameful"

    ^Those phrases (obviously) represent an OPINION.

    http://www.politicalforum.com/index.php?forums/political-opinions-beliefs.10/

    Oh, and on-topic, I disagree with the opinions expressed in the linked article.

    Just another dime-a-dozen Biden hit piece.

    If this isn't a wake-up call clearly showing how HORRIBLE the Democrat Party still is at this point in time, I doubt that anything beyond this will.

    Are you disputing the messages throughout the entire piece....???

    This is real-time news and you are making a feeble attempt to try to tell all of us that it is opinion when in fact it is a current exposure of a catastrophic mess.

    So typical of you to try to scrub reality...

    How many Americans have the Taliban harmed so far? How many foreigners have they gone after since this started?

    Not sure how Otto Warmbier fits with the other two. He was a ****ing moron that went to NK on his own and then did stupid ****. Never understood why it was the governments job to save him

    This kinda thinking would never be allowed by Trump.Listening to the
    press conference and questions being asked of Milley and Austin
    and their sheer hesitation on the big question.What is gonna be
    done NOW as in Immediately to make sure those who can't make passage
    to the airfield in Kabul do not endure a hellish nightmare of possible
    torture or beheading.
    Like I said ... Trump would personally assure Americans he won't
    sleep tonight until a way is found to rescue and give safe harbor to those
    stranded americans.While a Bozo Creep President Hides.

    That's a very volatile thing. It's a good thing for right now to be sure, but this is not the time to be bragging about the Taliban's current commitment to their obligations. You know, wouldn't want a take to age badly and all.

    We should not be in the position of begging the Taliban to spare people's lives.

    Does anyone know who these 5 to 20 plus thousands Americans are and why they are in Afghanistan?

    Are they there at the behest of the US government?

    Did they not know that we were pulling all of our troops out in a very short amount of time?

    Twitter may be the only intelligence source our spy agencies have left.

    I think there's no way to have evacuated tens of thousands of people in a week. Planes evacuating could only fit a few hundred at a time at best.

    It seems the whole world knew we were leaving there for the last 18 months.

    Missionaries, thrill seeking tourists, some CIA ... most of who is left in Afghanistan knew there were risks. It's not
    exactly Club Med.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't just about any civilian going to AF since 2002 know there are some risks?? As I understand it, there was a war going on there...
