The 20th Anniversery on 9/11 is going to be fire. And that is not just a flame at Biden but the incredible incompetetnce of our DC leadership for decades.

Yep. At this point I wouldn’t be shocked if we’ve emboldened the terrorist asshats around the world to hit us on that day.

If I was a reporter, I would be asking exactly what weapons do they pocess. Any shoulder launched SAMS in particular. That was a major concern in 2002 with Stingers hand me downs. In reality it probably does not matter,,the CCP will load them up as another third party proxy.

Dang CCP has a wider roadway straight to the heart of the ME now.
 
There would just be two more parties taking their place. Look at football. The SEC gains a couple of teams, and the rest of the big conferences talk about uniting. It always comes down to two in our society, and that's just the way it is. Look at the collage basketball championship; it all funnels down to two. We couldn't be happy with bowl games; we had to pervert that and have two teams trying for the knockout. It's just who we are. The thought of no parties or multiple competing parties is pie in the sky ... not gonna happen. We put rules in place to prevent business monopolies; and then, in spite of it all, the government still allows mergers that lead to loss of real diffused competition.
I miss all the 'meaningless' bowl games.
 
Does anybody think we learned anything from our failure in afghanistan?

There's another way to look at that. Investors (and insiders including politicians) make a lot in the markets in time of chaos. This is just a different kind of chaos and a different kind of investor (including insiders and politicians). Normal people need not apply and just don't matter in either case. It's the old drill sergeant thing about mind over matter - they don't mind and you don't matter.
 
I'd rather see them grow some balls and fight for themselves - same with central America. If you keep giving people a way out instead of a way to fight for what they need/want, then you just turn it into an exodus. We should have learned the message from our failed civil rights legislation; you have to give people the means to develop and thrive rather than exist on handouts. In biblical terms teach a man to fish ...
How are those women/young girls/young boys supposed to defend themselves? Sometimes I think it would be the humane thing to do and put the entire region out of it's misery.

I am aware of the politics but not the religion. What religious idealism were the VC fighting for?

Socialism is a religion to some people, and socialist totalitarianism is a religion to a different level devotee. The magic happens when the leaders sell the dream to their own 81M kind of people. Ho Chi Minh and company completely sold a lot of people on the state as a church - it just takes having a lot of poor, non-individualistic people with no real future.
 
The scary part is that while they claim they don't know the exact # of Americans left they won't tell us how many the do know are still there. If that information comes out some simple math could paint a very bad picture.
Here’s some logic; So the Biden says everyone is being evacuated by the deadline. If they don’t know how many, will they say they got everyone on Sept 1 ?
 
....... and there goes Potato Joe walking off the stage with no answer to questions.
This is becoming another trademark with him. Just exit left as "leave now" sign comes up.
What a dildo he is.
It's okay. When they bring out the vaudeville hook to bring him off of the stage we'll know they're worried.

We prove over and over again in this country and in others that you cannot through your own will make people better. That is something they have to do for themselves. You can perhaps create conditions where others can begin the process of self improvement, but you simply cannot do it for them no matter how many battles or wars you fight or how many pieces of legislation you write. It is simply incredible that so many people cannot absorb this one simple lesson that has played out endless times.
