Afghanistan - we never should have been there in the first place
« on: August 17, 2021, 02:19:43 PM »
I remember when we invaded that fucked up country and thinking this will end in disaster
Before we went in the Taliban ran the country and it was a fucking nightmare and it's obviously just resuming as we leave.  The exit is definitely fucked up - and Biden gets plenty of blame for that but so does Trump who started the process and still took credit for it in June and said "they couldn't stop the process"

Bush get's a shit-ton of blame too.  He is the one who went in there with absolutely no plan whatsoever

That being said - Biden is POTUS and the exit happened under his administration and it's on him

Well, Straw, I am flabbergasted at your honesty.

Much respect!

I agree 100%.

Anyone involved should be blamed.

There was no reason to ever go there or Iraq.

Should have left that shithole a decade ago.
