Did anyone really think it all wouldn’t end his way? The Taliban was kicking the Afghan forces butts regardless of how many troops we had there to support them. It didn’t matter one iota which administration finally pulled the plug.

How to win a war...
1. Keep newsmen out of war zone. 2. Keep photographers out of war zone. 3. Keep our civilians out of war zone. 4. Keep politicians out of war zone. 5. Keep politicians out of war conversations. 6. Keep Biden out of it. 7. Level the battleground. Done.

Unfortunately MJ, you and Phil are correct. All the people who would have processed visas for those who assisted us have left. They will pay dearly and even CNN and other elements of the media will provide the images that will follow this administration from now on. Such a flawed exit strategy is inexcusable by any measure. All the signs were there and they relied on wishful thinking. Only silver lining of the war is that it bought us time to lessen our vulnerability at home. But a horrific price has been paid for that and many Afghans and Americans here will keep paying that price. God bless our military and their families.

As the great El Rushbo always said...The purpose of a war is to kill people and break things.
Otherwise, don't get involved..When we ever learn? (I said that)

Well,, what is going on today?
The Biden border crisis grows worse every month. It was announced this week that in July over 212,000 illegal immigrants were apprehended along the southern border. This is nearly 25,000 more than June and it 420 percent higher than last July. Along with the illegal immigrants comes an alarming amount of drugs. 771 pounds of fentanyl and 17,792 pounds of methamphetamine were seized in July. We are on pace to have over 2 million people cross the southern border by October. But it gets worse. The Biden administration is releasing COVID-positive illegal immigrants in our communities. In McAllen, Texas, for example, 7000 COVID-positive illegal migrants have been released since February! So while Mr. Biden pushes his vaccine mandate upon American citizens, he gives plane and bus tickets out to COVID-positive illegals to travel throughout the United States. Afghanistan has collapsed, Taliban takes over. Just another day for President Fudd.

Yes. To put this into perspective, there are about 60,000 Taliban forces in Afghanistan, the standing Afghanistan Army was about 300,000+. You can lead a horse to water, give the arms to guard the pond, but you can't make em drink. |
