Trump had a deal to remove the majority of the US presence as part of their deal with the Taliban. Still, he was leaving a presence in the area. Nevertheless, the Taliban knew that is they broke the deal, Trump was going to hit them again without mercy. The Taliban had a taste of it when Soleimani attacked the embassy in Iraq and Trump took him out with a drone. We have lost of credibility with our new administration and be ready for what is coming. You will see China hit Taiwan and Biden will not do anything. With the Taliban taking over Afghanistan, Iraq is next. The Syrians have the support of Russia and Iran has the support from China and the Taliban has the support of both Syria and Iran. With such coalition, their final targets will the remainder of the Middle East with their final goal to hit Israel! |

The agreement struck last year laid out a 14-month timetable for the withdrawal of "all military forces of the United States, its allies and coalition partners." The US agreed to withdraw troops and release some5000 Taliban prisoners, while the Taliban agreed to take steps to prevent any group or individual, including al Qaeda, from using Afghanistan to threaten the security of the US or its allies. This accord "legitimized the Taliban" and gave them a "road map" to conduct their offensive and oust the democratically elected government. Our next mission should be taking care of our Veterans that served during this timeframe. As far as the what the future holds for this country, my crystal ball has been broken for a long time. With regards to Israel, I believe they can hold their own, they have 90 to 120 ways of doing that. A quote from the Jewish people still holds true, “Never Again”. |

Afghanistan is a notoriously difficult country to govern. Empire after empire, nation after nation have failed to pacify what is today the modern territory of Afghanistan, giving the region the nickname “Graveyard of Empires, ” even if sometimes those empires won some initial battles and made inroads into the region.

It has been reported that billions of dollars of top U.S. military equipment is being left behind for the Taliban to use.
Because of the incompetent Biden withdrawal, the Taliban has seized helicopters, Humvees, Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles (MRAPs), drones, and even “anti-aircraft guns, armored tanks, and artillery.” Biden has no plan to get any of that equipment back or to keep the Taliban from seizing even more weapons. American military hardware is the best in the world. Americans paid for it. We want it back and secured. What is the plan, President Fudd?
