Wow, nobody could have predicted this…
#biden completely ignores his joint staff and pulls troops out in the summer season.
I predicted this and more once it became clear the illegitamate demented dictator would be installed.

@Donn Mckee What oil? The only strategic resource in Afghanistan is rare earth minerals.
@Deborah Freedman already said this but around 1.5 million barrels extracted annually plus 1 million barrels worth daily transported from Turkmenistan and central Asia through Afghanistan Pakistan and India
So yeah the oil too
This feels like playing late 90s video game for hours and forgetting to save the progress and now we have to replay it from the beginning
@Fred Frond lol
Thanks for the compliment
Look up the history of Greek Bactria to understand why Kandahar, a translation of Alexandria, persisted so long
As for the locals, Alexander was famous for either completely destroying those who opposed him, Persian, Greek, Macedonian, or otherwise, or adopting the ways of the locals so completely, one could mistake where he was from
This trend caused him much trouble with those who served in his army either as generals, soldiers, scholars, or doctors.
He was a clearly complex personality, with as many negative traits and positive, so I’m not trying to “whitewash” him but he, along with the Mongols, pacified the region in his day being the exceptions that prove the rule:
Afghanistan is the graveyard of empires
Cheers
@Scott Carey kinda is tho ever played sims?
That’s how I feel about this stupid pandemic too. Everyone getting vaccinated is ^s, and too many people won’t do it, so back to the beginning.
This analogy applies to the Democratic Party as a whole
You killed me 😂😂
Wait I’m confused did we not just withdrew from Afghanistan like yesterday?
@Frankie Bruan who said it was still Trumps fault?
@Joseph V
Uhhh hear the news? Yeah, you wrong.
@Fossil Draws
Check your news lately? One soldier who dies over this is not okay. But stay in your brainwashed state. No one cares anymore.
@Jesus Is The King
Well Mr. History buff, The name ” jesus” was made up. The 1632 KJV never had the letter J and the white folks aren’t the real Jewish, its black Americans who are the true Hebrew isrealites. I see you prefer the made up lying history. I’m outta your league. Go insult some one else and cough, cough, do some real research. Shalom
Thanks Biden, while I agreed with getting out I sure as hell did not mean like this, like cowards and not leaving Afghanistan very prepared.
Jihad.
Learn to spell it before learning to fly.
As they say: History Repeats Itself
Praying for everyone. Especially my cousin who’s leaving us to go. This Sunday will be my last day with her at the beach. 😭
May God be with her always!
@Piotr Dembowy I don’t need your negativity comment here thanks
@Jack Ryan thank you jack and for your service .
@Maurice Brown 🙏🙏❤️
@rakes5150 I prayed for Valeria and her cousin. I did not scream in capital letters. Pray for the Holy Ghost to guide thee. *Daniel 9:27 says, And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.* The Son of man is the Lord of the sabbath day, not sunday nor friday. REPENT. Are you willing to be cast into the lake of fire for keeping sunday, Christmas and Easter? Christ Jesus is our Passover, not our easter nor supper nor christmas.
And then the lord said, “SIKE”
Sending troops *only* to the US embassy* The title at first sounds misleading.
Actually it’s sending troops to evacuate the embassy in full retreat. That’s what the title should read.
Now let’s wait for the US begging to begin. The apologizing should start with Afghanistan women before anywhere else. Last but not least China Joe has played it well.
@J Thomas member trump started this withdrawal process while in office
You might also recall him abandoning our Kurdish allies to Russian backed Syrian government to be killed…
@mpalfadel2008 He didn’t “abandon” the Kurdish forces. Lol… You listen to propaganda but can’t repeat it properly.
The Kurds are a stateless ethnic group dispersed primarily throughout the Middle Eastern nations of Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Armenia, and Syria. Most of them are Sunni Muslims, and the estimated total population of between 25 and 35 million makes them one of the world’s largest stateless peoples.
The ones in Syria were invading Turkey and pulling a BLM protest. ( Looting, Vandalism, etc). Trump just didn’t stop Turkey from doing what any country would do to protect itself.
Sure we need to withdrawal from Afghanistan but it shouldn’t be on their terms. Looks like someone put another American Embassy in danger again.
The best time to get out of a 20 year war was yesterday.
@CreekSide ENT
You want another Vietnam?
@Marshal Murat the technology we have is nothing like back then. We could take them out in a few days if we really wanted to. Just about how many civilians they are willing to kill.
@CreekSide ENT
You speaking like we haven’t tried in 20 years, I’m a 0311 rifleman, being deployed to Afghanistan is a nightmare. The enemy doesn’t know how to run, victory was everywhere. They simply kept fighting for 20 years
@Marshal Murat what do u mean by victory was everywhere?
You should think the US would have learned the lesson you cannot beat a highlymotivated movement armed with only guns with technology. The Taliban seems to have the support of the population because otherwise they couldn’t so quickly take over the country. That is the fault of thinking in the US military, when a adversary doesn’t mind to be killed or take any damage you cause them then you cannot win, because yourself and your population does care, and only so much bodybags are accepted
“Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in”

Silvio dante here
That’s what she said 😂
Hey! Someone prommised me “normalcy” and “unity” last summer! Are we there, yet?
To do something for 20 years, pull out, and have the situation go back to what it was in less than a week….. that’s gotta be embarrassing and wasteful. My sympathies to the lives that will be lost needlessly, on both sides, but more so Afghanies who never had a choice.
They knew this was going to happen when they withdrew troops from there.
When it comes to ambiguous and confusing language, the US government is expert in it.
Doublespeak my friend
Ambiguous and confusing is what they teach in law school.
Hey, Joe. Are you sure our tax dollar is going towards our infrastucture here at home?
If an army can become demoralised so easily, no wonder it collapsed so quickly.
“what this is” is a FOS administration that has no clue how to plan anything.
“This is not an evacuation.”
It’s a… when you turn, um, and go the opposite direction of travel versus how you were originally going, regardless of where the Taliban are standing… This is not about them!
