US military conducts airstrike against ISIS-K planner

LOL! He is definitely not a conservative!

 

So far there is no word on how extensive the damage from Biden's strike was or what big name terrorist was killed. Just a "We got 'em" from the Administration. who/what did they get?

 

lol, the irony and projection is denser than lead...

 

I want to plagiarize that.

 

I pretty much know that is complete BS, but I'll give you a chance to back it up....

On topic, good call... I don't know what our drone and targeting capabilities were in 2001, but I gotta believe they are better now...

 

I agree.

I swear the American electorate, as a whole, acts like a two year old toddler on this issue. They want our troops to be out of Afghanistan, they want Afghanistan to be stable, and they want the Taliban out of power. The problem is, they don't realize that you cant have all three of those things at the same time. And, if you can't have it all, then someone has to be to blame: Point the finger at the opposing party.

It's the same with the public debt: Americans hate paying taxes, they also hate the growing deficit, but still want their government benefits. As if they can't figure out that you can't have it all. There is no such thing as a free lunch.

The first thing voters would have to do is to actually educate themselves about the political situation in Afghanistan and the ME in general. But, no, that's way too much work. Rather listen to 2 min sound bites from the "news" pundits telling them it is Biden's fault, or it is Trump's fault. And so the divisiveness and stupid foreign policies continue.

 

Well said.

 

The "left" understands the different circumstances between the 2 events.... The "right"? Not so much...

 

So does Biden.

 

If you repeat that enough, you might even start to believe it!

 

Do you mean Solmeini? I thought that was broadly supported, but I could be wrong...

 

It's a matched set... I believe it because it's true...

I had no major problem with the goal of the T**** strike, but it was botched in several ways... par for his course...

Quiz Time... Which noted leftist said the following after that strike??

“probably the worst briefing I have seen, at least on a military issue, in the nine years I’ve served in the United States Senate.”

 

The goal was generally supported, but the post-mission lying was typically piss poor...

Certainly not's T**** worst moment as POTUS however.... might even be in his top 10... or since there may not be 10 moments that qualify, top 5...

 

Nope. That was DRUMPF!!! STARTED WORLD WAR THREE!!!

Where’s the body, where’s the DNA. Where’s the video. Sending a drone to blow up a sheep or some poor old
Afghan goat herder isn’t the same as blowing up some ISISK General.
I’ll go with the Xiden handlers devising a plan to make Xoe look presidential (for once anyway) doing the same thing as Da Trumpsta did to the Iranian general. Need proof or it didn’t happen, would bet the Dems lied about this.

 

Perhaps, but they have had excellent intelligence about potential bombings and were able to warn people to evacuate certain gates. They got the same info again on Friday night about another potential bombing. So I would say that the target was a result of the same kind of intelligence.

 

If it was done correctly, the body is currently being collected with sponges...

And don't you mean ISIS-X general?? That's what YOUR general is calling it these days...

Pentagon briefing at 11am... Tune in...

 

Biden has not fired his advisors.

 

Another mistake.

They're piling up.

 

Thank you for the great joke!

 

Biden should fire anyone everyone who has misled him.
That has not happened. IOW Biden must have rejected good advice and bears the full responsibility for this catastrophe.

 

Is it really or is it just an illusion?
Or maybe its a deflection.

It's completely understandable that you take that as a slight. Wasn't really intended that way, big picture is that the hyperpartisan emotions on BOTH sides are both annoying and necessary in their own right.
Think of it as driving down the road to get to work. There's no telling where you're mind may be BUT the entire time you're driving, without any conscient effort, you are able navigate your way to work by constantly steering your car left and right, even in the straight runs, as each slight or drastice turn of the road or grade change slightly changes the direction.of your travel. That's American politics, and it does matter, and it does mean that everyone's opinion, even in some small way, counts.

Afghanistan is a mess. Has been for a long time. Withdrawal would be a mess no matter how it was done, No matter what party was in control, or what party the president represented, the withdrawal was gonna be messy. That's why we've been there for 20 years. Not because of the American people or decisions, but because of the will of the Afghans. They ultimately have to decide on what leadership they want. The US set them up to make a decision, and when we gave them the ultimatum, this is the result. like it or not. We need to accept their decision and move on..............

 

Rational thought.

 

Well, he won't make THAT mistake again on PF.com..

 

Just takes a few beers and a fattie!
