Civil War? Nah!

Is this the Vice Commander in Chief that said there are no troops in a War zone?

Kinda like Sleepy saying no military dead under his watch.

Some of you should be buying property in Canada so the kids have somewhere to stay.

I love the way they blame the casualties that occured during the Afghan withdrawal on Trump because "he announced the withdrawal date in advance". Biden was in office and if the withdrawal was a bad idea, he was not obligated to stick to that date. He could have set it it aside just like he did many Trump policies. Biden was in office and in charge so it is all on him.

Well, sparky, unfortunately because of the terms of Trumpty Dumbty's agreement, the US was obligated, no matter who the president was at the time.

He doesn't make the best deals, you know.

You're kidding right. You realize you're on a public forum. So you're saying Biden couldn't have changed ANY terms of the agreement? Maybe I'm mistaken.

Admittedly Sleepy is the weakest president since Jimmy.

And Afghanistan was 3 years ago. Today he is a National Security problem.

His choice appeared to be withdraw per the agreement or recommit and send back a combat force. If he had decided to refuel the war he'd be catching heat from the right wing media that he couldn't end the war.

Lisa Curtis who served during Trumps administration had this to say about Trump's agreement:

“The Doha agreement was a very weak agreement, and the U.S. should have gained more concessions from the Taliban,” said Lisa Curtis, an Afghanistan expert who served during the Trump administration as the National Security Council’s senior director for South and Central Asia.

She called it “wishful thinking” to believe that the Taliban might be interested in lasting peace. The resulting agreement, she said, was heavily weighted toward the Taliban, contributed to undermining Afghan President Ashraf Ghani — he fled the country Sunday and is now in the United Arab Emirates — and facilitated the release of 5,000 Taliban prisoners without a commensurate concession from the Taliban.

“They wanted U.S. forces out, and they wanted to take over the country militarily, and they believed that they could do that,” Curtis said of the Taliban. “That was just crystal clear.”

And let's not forget that the whole shit show in Iraq and Afghanistan was a GOP war that Buch/Cheyney engineered to the point of lying about weapons of mass destruction and hiding the Saudi involvement in 9/11.

So we should have remained there, which would require sending back a full force, to win a war over ideology (remember Vietnam)? The only way to win a war over ideology is to nuke an entire country. Is that what you're suggesting?
