Yep, while I think the handling of this has been highly incompetent, it's also true that the US and hence the west withdrawing was always inevitable whoever was in power. There are wider issues here that go beyond Democrat or Republican and are about the nature and aims of US foreign policy. Staying in Afghanistan for twenty years was nuts. It was a significant misreading of what was possible, which cost unnecessary lives and amazing levels of spending. I'd say it isn't a left/right issue to say we need accountability and it doesn't matter what party they come from. Indeed! It makes my 5 man table story, about world leaders getting together twice a year to plot deals-wars/alms, all the more creditable.

My favourite part of tonight is when the Taleban leaders, speaking from the Presidential office, said that when it was safe, their leaders would be flying in from Qatar. Let that sink in. Qatar. Where the next World Cup is being played.

I was watching 7yr old Afghan girls being taken from their homes at gun point by the Taliban this morning, their future is one of child brides, rape, beatings and a miserable early death, the crazy thing is they were growing up in an Afghanistan that had schools, elections and some level of freedom, that is all this generation of Afghan children know that's all gone now. This is a disaster on par with Suez/Vietnam and really Biden & his mob of freaks should be impeached and removed. Indigo Traveller made an amazing travel blog on youtube just over a year ago that is really worth 25 minutes of your time and how much progress Afghanistan was making.

It really hasn't been the same without mass executions, stonings and be-headings. So our gratitude to the United States for restoring them.

This falls on Biden & his embarrassment of a team.

This is why we lost. Just imagine if we'd taken the gloves off our coalition armed forces we would & could wipe out this vermin in a matter of weeks....
