so the fustercluck of an evacuation that Biden directed is the reason this guy couldn't get out, but finishing said fustercluck expeditiously was necessary because...?
Totally agree. Both sides of our political spectrums messed up going back to Bush and continuing today …Both sides overstayed, we should have gone out long time ago. We should have allowed the ANA to have the rifles and humvees to fight on equal footing but taken the NV equipment, armored vehicles, aircraft and such back to us and got the hell out on a deliberate and measured process years ago to ensure high tech equipment, Americans and valued afghans and families come with us. The taliban never had any kind of Air Force, now they are hovering over Kandahar in a Blackhawk helicopter carrying off a dude hanging by his neck tethered to a rope like a freaking piñata …maybe they thought this was Mohammed that aided Biden years ago, who knows right? This withdrawal has been an absolute clusterfućk joke and it’s telling when pro liberal news channels even agree
like everything else, ur confused, all mixed up. Biden laden—-living in Pakistan at the time—-was the mastermind / financier for the 9/11 attack. Many of his money then was still in his home country, Saudi Arabia. W wanted to get Bin laden; but instead of Saudi Arabia / Pakistan, the incompetent one targeted Afghan
In other words, Biden should have fast tracked this guy's departure out of Afghanistan, ahead of other interpreters equally desperate to leave, because of his special relationship with him? And that would not have been a problem for you?
I remember Saudi. To Afghan people, the invasion is daily 9-11 lasting for 20 years. They will not forget.
There is unsurprisingly a lot of misinformation being spread throughout the internet on this mission. Criticism is fine, but we should try to stick to facts. People need to slow down, take a breath, and wait for images/stories that are being furiously tweeted out to be properly vetted. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/taliban-hanging-black-hawk/ This video is real (although its date is unclear), but it does not show a person being hanged. It shows a person in a harness who can be seen waving to people on the ground.
It feels like 2008 all over again. Was wondering when we'd see a return of our most prolific bad faith poster.
