BBC News: Reports " US President Joe Biden is set to announce that American troops will leave Afghanistan by 11 September, officials have told US media. "
Lets Get Real:
President Biden as VP under President Obama never supported the Afghan War and used anything negative to undermine the President and his plans. This move by Biden shows that he is WEAK AS DISHWATER, the Taliban will simply wait for the US to remove it forces and then go in for the kill and try to retake Kabul. It is reported that Biden will leave troops in Afghanistan to protect the Embassy,* let's hope that is correct and the US Air Force should be used to take down the Taliban if they try to attack US land forces in Afghanistan as they leave. Let's be clear this blog has never supported sending troops to Afghanistan in the first place, its is the graveyard of Empires, the British Empire had wars in Afghanistan, while the USSR invaded in 1979, both sides found that Afghanistan and planning does not work. But once the US and the UK were in we need to win, it seems we are throwing in our cards as we cant win in the long term. As to miss quote LBJ, if Biden fails in Afghanistan then the Republicans should ram Afghanistan up the backside of Biden, its his WAR to LOSE.
* The original text miss quoted the number of troops to be left behind in Afghanistan!
