No Regrets Biden on Afghanistan - Afghanistan/Biden Era

White House: Statement by President Biden on Afghanistan, " When I came to office, I inherited a deal cut by my predecessor—which he invited the Taliban to discuss at Camp David on the eve of 9/11 of 2019—that left the Taliban in the strongest position militarily since 2001 and imposed a May 1, 2021 deadline on U.S. Forces. Shortly before he left office, he also drew U.S. Forces down to a bare minimum of 2,500. Therefore, when I became President, I faced a choice—follow through on the deal, with a brief extension to get our Forces and our allies’ Forces out safely, or ramp up our presence and send more American troops to fight once again in another country’s civil conflict. I was the fourth President to preside over an American troop presence in Afghanistan—two Republicans, two Democrats. I would not, and will not, pass this war onto a fifth.  "

Lets Get Real:

This is pathetic from a man who considers himself an expert on foreign policy, he is NOW blaming Trump for this mess in Afghanistan.  It is no wonder that Biden has not shown his face, is he in the Witness Protection Programme.  Thank goodness the UK has the Queen as a head of State, and she is in her 90's and still turns up for work.  Those Baltic States, Poland, and  other members of NATO will be asking, can they trust the US now, will Biden support them if Putin makes a move in the Baltics or even Poland.  Those in Iraq must be thinking, if Daesh come back, will Biden run away again, as the Obama Administration did.  This is the worst foreign policy mess since Vietnam in 1975 and it is Biden's FAULT. 

PM Boris on the TALIBAN takeover of Afghanistan - Biden Era

Sky News: Reports " Afghanistan must not become 'breeding ground for terror' once again , PM says "

Lets Get Real:

How DUMB to you have to be to be a British PM, of course Al Qaeda will back, the Taliban have just released five thousand prisoners from the Jail at the the former US/Allied base.  One does not have to be Henry Kissinger to see that the terror elements will be back in Afghanistan faster than you can say Taliban.  Al Qaeda and the Taliban are the same thing, what in the earth is the PM going on about.  The PM should have stood alone, Churchill and Lady Thatcher would have, and they are considered great, they never ran from a fight.  The Conservative Party really needs a new LEADER, some with the backbone to defend UK interests.   This has been a shameful day if your American or British. 

Now comes the killings, persecution, religious tyranny - Afghanistan

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 5.16pm post the following, " The Taliban are claiming to have taken over the presidential palace in Kabul...There has been no confirmation from government officials.  "

Lets Get the Real:

The Taliban NOW control Kabul and Afghanistan, God help the poor people of Afghanistan, if you have worked for the ALLIES in any way you have a target on your back, if your a girl or woman your rights have just gone, women will not allowed to work, girls will have no education, Western culture will be destroyed, the Taliban Regime will bring in strict religions law, women will be stoned, people will be executed.  If POTUS has no regrets he is not fit to be President, he is sacrificing a WHOLE country his own belief in his own judgement.  As history has shown, Joe Biden should never be allowed near foreign policy, Reagan Republicans who are strong on national security should shove Afghanistan down the throat of Joe Biden, when you allow people to suffer and you do not help, does not make you much of a Christian, not much a Roman Catholic.  This has been a shameful day for the US and the UK, this blog has been less critical of PM Boris than most, that will change, he is not fit to be our PM.
