Well I noticed something like this been blamed on conservatives when the Democrats have made a complete mess of Afghanistan by putting Biden in charge? Our country is being threatened by the moron in charge of America and you go on about things like this?
@Grvstu Do you even know how to human🤔

@Grvstu I’m guessing you [b]forgot[/b] who initially sent troops into Afghanistan in response to 9/11 ? He also sent troops into Iraq. I’m not certain what the initial plan was—how long were we going to stay there, and what were we even there to accomplish ? Our people were not meant to stay there indefinitely. But once Osama bin Laden was dead, why else were we over there ?

@bijouxbroussard To play's devil's advocate, Bin Laden was never proven guilty in court. Any jurisprudence would really have suggested capture the criminal and make him face trial. Let all laws involving International Law play. You can't complain about terrorists who take justice into their own hands and then forgo those basic elements.
But that is one thing America does again and again.

@thewindupbirdchronicles No argument here. Our past puts us in an ongoing “catch-22” situation: we need to stop interfering with the way other countries live, stop acting as “World Cop”. Except that in situations that don’t involve us when we don’t offer assistance quickly enough, it’s “why didn’t the U.S. do anything ?”
Damned if you do, [b]truly[/b] damned if you don’t.

It is the completely botched manner of withdrawal. Especially with the president he doesn’t appear to know what time of day it is@bijouxbroussard

@bijouxbroussard I may be one of the few who feels Biden is doing what he can with a commitment to pull out. Laws will apply here, if there are people hanging off of your jet, looking in desperation to get out, you can't fly. That's not something that can be moved, or changed.
The situation? Hindsight says, America should have never involved itself the way it has there.

@Grvstu Who says ? I still believe it’s selective ageism and once the right-wing media started with the “Sleepy Joe” epithets, [b]that[/b] was going to be the rhetoric around absolutely everything Biden did. I too think he’s handling a situation he didn’t create as carefully as possible.
