At least 13 U.S. soldiers dead in Afghanistan. And the 1st post that wasn't a reply to a previous post that was made prior to the suicide attack, was some video of a few idiots. Just wrong on so many levels.

I think it goes without saying there was no disrespect intended to the situation and those who died. The whole thing is a cluster fuck.

This is all conjecture on my part, but I have experience (Been right once or twice with it).

So reports/claims are the drone strike that destroyed the VBIED actually killed a guy that worked for an American NGO and a former DOD contractor (Both Afghans) and their families. Not saying this is true but wouldn't surprise me if it was, especially if it was the Taliban providing the intel. Seen stupid shit like this done before in another theater. (a lack of a secondary explosion on the vehicle got my suspicions going).

President Biden on August 19: "If there's American citizens left [on August 31], we're gonna stay to get them all out."

Dementia ridden piece of shit wanted a fucking photo opt on 9-11. What a disgraceful piece of shit.

A lotta folks should be held accountable for this absolute debacle. Those are the words of our allies as well.

The 20 year book on Afghanistan occupation can be closed.

President Biden took one for the team by being the president on deck to close out this shit show of a military industry contractor cash cow.

Pathetic



The Obama - Biden foreign policy disasters continue.

President Biden knew it was going to be a shit show and people on the other side of the aisle would politicize anything the Taliban did as if President Biden had blood on his hands ..

but he did it anyway. Putting whats best for America and the American people ahead of his interests in favorability polling.

Thank you President Biden.

Lol…the adults are back in charge!

You must have missed the lies Biden spouted leading up to his personal decisions in this mess where he said this would not be a shitshow, the taliban would not take the country back, ISIS isn’t in Afghanistan, we wouldn’t leave Americans behind, etc.

This has been a disaster of his making ie such as the border crisis, inflation numbers, his inability to stop covid with around 260k deaths, higher crime do to his party direct support of the defund the police movement and incompetent DA in major cities, and now a foreign policy crisis NATO described as one the worst since their inception and foreign allies laid blame on this administration.

But don’t let me get in the way of you celebrating this achievement…

Thank you President Biden.

You're thanking him for fucking it up???? Even most of those who liked the idiotic decision to surrender, even his allies in the Media, even the closest US Allies that virtually never criticize any US Government due to diplomatic niceties say he fucked it up 6 ways to Sunday. In fact he fucked it up so badly that it's a stain that almost certainly assures he will go down as one of the worst President the US ever had (He'll be keeping Trump company).

And you are thanking him for that?

Oh and Al Qaeda is openly back in Afghanistan with leaders showing themselves in public for the first time since 2001.

1. Yes I am happy we are finally done in Afghanistan and we finally stopped throwing away good money after bad.

2. Al Qaeda already being back = the last 20 years have been a waste of time and money. if 2 trillion us dollars and 20 years of occupation didnt do a damn thing .. why would I want to spend another 2T and 20 years there?

Learn from our mistakes .. not continue on the same ineffective plan.

Odd position to argue that Al Qaeda already back is somehow proof we should have continued what we were doing for the past 20 years. I see it as proof we should have pulled out long ago.

President Biden gets credit for ripping the band aid off knowing war hawks and MAGAs would be sharpening their spears on any adverse news.

20 years of failed policy is long enough imo.
