Oh BS. The entire Congress VOTED to go to war. It isn't his fault alone. If he talked them into, then why did none of them stand up and question him? Because they didn't. They were ALL IN for a war.

Yes, we needed out, but a light bulb could have come up with a more effective plan than the moron in the white house.

The Imbecile in Chief has set a new standard. I don’t think I have ever been so enraged at a POTUS ( even Obama). He and his entire foreign policy team need to be replaced immediately before they can further damage our nation’s security

My point. Get the hell out after the mission is accomplished. I favor no politicians. Most of them didn't have to face an enemy other than being behind a big oak desk. I never thought I would see the day that I would feel like the parents that sent their kids to Vietnam, but we are here. Now. Whether Johnson, Trump or Biden is to blame is immaterial. They're sending our kids to death. Own it or step away.

TBF, I should have added Bushes.

We cannot be the world’s police force. We should have been out of there years ago. But our government needs to plan a withdrawal and all its ramifications. The total lack of planning and consideration of consequences in this is utterly amazing. Biden claimed Trump damaged our relations with allies but Biden just nuked them. The people that are responsible for this debacle should be held accountable but never will be due to the nature of the swamp.

British Parliament formally censures Biden for his fustercluck.

Parliament holds Joe Biden in contempt over Afghanistan

MPs and peers unite to condemn ‘dishonour’ of US president’s withdrawal and his criticism of Afghan troops left behind to face Taliban
By Ben Riley-Smith, Political Editor 18 August 2021 • 9:30pm
Placeholder image for youtube video: 60giPPbNt6k

Joe Biden's handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal was condemned as "catastrophic" and "shameful" on Wednesday as the Houses of Parliament delivered an unprecedented rebuke to a US president....

Heard them say on Fox this evening that even the French are sending military in to remove citizens.

Where does the buck stop? Bush was POTUS and started this B.S., apparently without an exit plan or measurable standard for victory? Iraq too.

People that voted for that idiot twice are as bad as the folks that voted for and supported Obama and Biden. Bunch of sad sacks that sacrificed liberty for an illusion of security.

They own this as much as Biden and his crew of true believers. :yesnod:

And FTR, I don’t give two shits about American civilians trapped in that shithole. Reads like they were cashing in as contractors and robbing taxpayers to feather their own nests? Or is there a tourist season and they just caught a bad break?

We used to call folks like that war profiteers.

It stops everywhere. The MF'ing politicians sending our young folks to war with no clear goal is a true failure. We killed the bad guy a long time ago. Time to let them eat their own.

Having said that, we could have done better this time than we did in SE Asia on withdrawal. We could have laid down a surface fire that would have protected not only US folks, but our allies. We could have scuttled every piece of hardware in country. The whole argument of "we didn't know the ADF/AAF/ANSF was going to fold so quickly" is total BS. Generals and secretarial staff must not have read the most basic books on warfare.

They aren't reading Sun Tsu, they're reading about white fragility, white rage, how not to misgender, and how to be anti-racist, which must be fascinating, but in this one, narrow instance, actually winning a war, has proven to be less than effective.

Sun Tsu, Patton, Zizka, Wellesley and others were basic reading. We need to keep studying the successful ones instead of the woke ones.
