President Biden on Afghanistan FALL - Biden Era


Lets Get Real:

This is perhaps the worse speech given by a US President in the 21st Century, the American voters did not know that Joe Biden was going to appease the Taliban, that he would cut and run when given the chance, he stated that OBL was killed, what he did not say was that he was against the mission to get the Al Qaeda leader, it shows how a lack of insight there is in Joe Biden, he was repeating past statements, Biden showed why Robert Gates, the Defence Secretary for Bush 43 and Obama,  was right when he stated that he had not been right about foreign policy in 40 years.  South Korea, Baltic States, Poland and IRAQ you must ask is the US security guarantee worth the paper it is written on if signed by Joe Biden.  It odd to see a American President become Neville Chamberlain the appeasing PM of the 1930s.  The US voter does not like to see the US humiliated when it was not needed.  It should be recalled that President Ford lost to Jimmy Carter in 1976 in a very close election, a year after the Saigon evacuation.   Of course Americans were tired of the Afghan War and the cost, what they do not like or support is a President with no backbone or insight in to own weakness when it comes to foreign policy. 



Biden to Speak to the US at 8.45pm - Biden Era

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 4.02pm post, " US President Joe Biden to speak on Afghanistan today, White House says....He will return to Washington DC from Camp David and speak on the situation at 8.45pm, Reuters is reporting. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus what will POTUS say in 40 minutes from NOW, will he say SORRY that he made a mistake, of course not, he cant, this is this is the biggest fiasco since Saigon 1975. It should be noted that after the US left South Vietnam in 1973 the Regime lasted in till 1975 and was only overthrown because the Democratic Congress prevented President Ford from taking action.  Once Trump and Biden gave the signal that the US was on the way out the Taliban just had to wait, the Afghan Army needed the support of the US, it was only a small presence but it was enough, the Biden rash decision to remove troops lead to the pictures from the Kabul of people running to get hell out of Kabul.  Even the liberal CNN has managed to be critical, its only the partisan Democrats that are giving cover to Biden.  The Biden Oval must hope that the US voters have short memories and nothing else happens, if there is a terrorist attack and it is linked to the Afghanistan then the Biden Presidency will be over, he will be seen more than just going gaga, he will be seen as dangerous as former President, Donald Trump.

UK to send more troops to Kabul Airport - Biden Era


Lets Get Real:

At last reports there were no flights going or getting in to the Kabul Airport because the Afghans had run on to the runways.   Thus the Americans will have seven thousand troops at the Airport, will they go and get UK/US Citizens who are stuck in Kabul, what about those that have worked for the Allies, are we just going to leave them to their fate.   The Allies must do whatever is needed to save our Afghan Staff, otherwise this crisis will be worse than Suez in 1956 and Saigon in 1975.   The US/UK should move from the Airport and dare the Taliban to take action, move in to KABUL and help our citizens and Afghan staff to leave, the Allies wont do that because Biden is a empty suit and PM Boris does not have the steel balls to act.  Poor Afghanistan.
