Taliban Taking Over Afghanistan - Does anyone care?

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Lol. Sure. Just had the WH and both houses and did nothing

Things move at a snails pace in Washington. Democrats were always causing resistance for a Trump win anyway possible. Trump was constantly being harassed or to be impeached. Your post falls on deaf ears.

Satyrs - the Chinese have said even a virus can learn to like other species - or other species can learn to like a virus.

If they learn to like each other, do they stone themselves to death?

So is this what weddings look like in open carry states?

Butthurt over not getting your dumbass way on guns along with watching the most popular President ever go down in flames in real time. A twofer dipshit screech post from you

Bet they don’t have much looting….

• The Taliban's 'Angels of Salvation' are going door-to-door to round up suspected looters amid chaos in Kabul
• Footage shows alleged thieves being dragged out of their homes at gunpoint and being shamed in the street
• Robbers have their faces tarred and are strapped up to the backs of trucks to be paraded through the city

Which poster here doesn't?

This post has me feeling pissy and ready to argue.

EXC: Joe Biden's State Dept Halted a Trump-Era 'Crisis Response' Plan Aimed at Avoiding Benghazi-Style Evacuations Just MONTHS Before Taliban Takeover.

There was no evacuation of Benghazi. Their calls for reinforcements were denied and they were left to be slaughtered.

I just cannot help but feel, they want him out now. Just like 1/6, they let it perpetuate for a greater goal. Man I am as cynical as ever.

I tend to agree. This is such a mess, 8 of 15 cabinet secretaries plus the Cackler, doesn't seem like impossible odds now.

I certainly hope that plane was full of the good ones.

You haven’t much experience with men from that region of the world do you?

Good. Afghan food is fantastic!

Oh, and about the terrorism and crime threat, see: https://www.cato.org/blog/there-no-good-reason-block-afghan-refugees
According to data that Michelangelo Landgrave and I gathered for a recent paper on immigrant criminality, Afghan immigrants aged 18–54 in the United States were incarcerated at a rate of 127 per 100,000 Afghan immigrants in 2017. By comparison, native‐born Americans in the same age range were incarcerated at a rate of 1,477 per 100,000 native‐born Americans. In other words, native‐born Americans were about 11.6 times as likely to be incarcerated as Afghan immigrants. Afghans don’t pose much of a serious criminal threat in the United States.

In other words, A LOT of Americans and Afghanis are going to die. Why? Because this admin failed to ask “who’s guarding the rear?” They failed to guard the rear in an evacuation. Completely f’ing brilliant.

US has no plans to rescue Americans, Afghans stranded behind Taliban lines outside Kabul airport

 

[Rasputin_Vol]

Americans should have had first priority on those planes. But let this be a lesson to you Biden-lovers on the left and you flag waving fools on the right... your country doesn't GAF about you.

One Learning Lesson. DC , regardless of party or President, is one effed up incompetent group. Think about that as they want to control your HC, retirement savings or any aspect of your peronal life. In the macro sense Climate Change or whatever.

DC is and has always been fools.

That seems like it was the main objective since the mid 1950's. Now we can agree on that.

I might disagree to an extent on the time. More like the early to mid 60s after the Cuban Missile Crisis honestly. I agree the MIC got really large during the 60s since the goal was to get the contacts to buy equipment and whatnot because the .mil was a huge animal and equipping millions turned a tidy profit. Plus the Vietnam War made replacing material a lot more lucrative as well as building all over SE Asia.

But with the drawdown of the 90s, the money was being made after the conflict was over fixing what we broke. The money for defense contracts wasn't as plentiful with a smaller force; so, the big money contracts happened after everything was done.

You women’s rights touting Libtards want to have your wives trade places with those women in Afghanistan trapped under Taliban rule? Put your money where your mouth is.

"We've all seen the pictures. We've seen those hundreds of people packed in a C-17. We've seen Afghans falling --"
"That was four days ago, five days ago!" Biden interjected.

2 or 3 days ago Joe.

The buck stops here!

"So you don't think this could have been handled -- this exit could have been handled better in any way, no mistakes?" Stephanopoulos asked Biden.

"No, I don't think it could have been handled in a way that, we're gonna go back in hindsight and look -- but the idea that somehow, there's a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, I don't know how that happens. I don't know how that happened," Biden replied.
