Jerryherd:Bro, there is nothing intelligent about Biden's pull out. On the contrary, it shows a white house that didn't have any contingency plans, that didn't do a proper risk assessment before the pull out, and that erroneously underated the Taliban. So you think need to stimulate the American economy and other excuses you gave is the reason for this shambolic pull out? Lol. You will know Biden messed up big time when even the prime minister of a country that is the number 1 ally of the US (UK) is indirectly putting the blame for this mess on the US. And for your information, economy, debts have never stopped the US from carrying out anything militarily! |

Best speech in history....If the Afghan government had put up a good fight, they could ve been assisted....Why will I initiate a war in which I cannot see my way through....Who am I fighting for? The same government that has already accepted defeat? of-course No! |

Meninmen:It was the US Military's contingency plans. And no-one will believe they didn't have any. Plans are only as good as the intelligence you get and and I don't think Biden had intelligence saying the Afghan army we trained for 20 years at a cost of almost 100Billion US would lay their guns down and run away and the Taliban would take over the country in a week. Shit, the President fled. Maybe, they should have known. I believe in helping people, but I can't send my family to fight/die for you if yours won't fight/die for you. I was mad seeing all those young men fleeing the country... pick up a gun and defend your home. |

Jerryherd:The present might of the Central Government has its root to decree No. 34 of General Aguiyi Ironsi. It's only a house boy like you and a low-class animal that doesn't know that you are a slave to the Igbos for life. A tribe who gave you independence and still control your economy, an idiot from a most useless coward tribe in Nigeria want to speak when the real landowners are talking, we control your city and make you an immigrant in our region, who truly rule this nation, the bigger joke is on you. We will continue to dominate you animals...See your region, you are close to second class. Who presidency help,with or without we are what we are.

kayjay69:the US didnt go to afghanistan in d first place for d purpose of "liberating" afghanistan from d taliban. so d issue of liberation doesnt arise. d US was also never interested in vanquishing d taliban. it only intended to deter and weaken d taliban considerably after it had settled in and achieved its goals. d iraq war was its biggest distraction. its strategy was to invest in d afghan army both financially and militarily so as to equip them with d ability of securing d country. unfortuanately, d ruling political and military elite were only interested in lining their pockets with american financial aid. d afghan military had d same 20years that d Taliban had and with better support and funding. why then couldn't they defend their country? how u say d US "installled" a corrupt govt in afghanistan is difficult to grasp when d general attitude of d people toward d taliban is laughable. am not sure how and why u think d US will come and liberate nigeria and under what pretext that they would want to embark on such a venture |

Righteousness2:Am amazed at your level of reasoning even though have made it a serious point to always ignore your short sightedness but how in the world can you meddle religion into world politics. So the common did not tell you that fighting war for 20years and not result it’s better to leave it abi? |

IjeBos:You really do not understand the issue here. That the Afghan president fled his country is not the issue. That Afghan soliders and Afghan citizens couldn't defend their country against the Taliban is not the issue here. They can flee from the country and allow the Talibans take over, their cup of tea. The issue here is the Manner the US hurriedly pulled out it's troops from Afghanistan, emboldening the Taliban to capture more terrotries. Now, there are still Americans, and Aghans who helped the US who are still in Afghanistan. The hurried withdrawal has put their lives in danger. You saw how helicopter was used to evacuate occupants of the US embassy? The last time that happened was during the Vietnam war when the US came back embarrassed. Few days ago, Biden sent 1,000 troops back Afghanistan to secure the safe evacuation of Americans, allies, and some Afghans that helped the US. If this is not confusion, I don't know what It is. It is a show of shame for the US. We are not even talking of America weapons that have fallen into the hands of the Taliban that will find their way into the hands of China and Russia. The pull out was shambolic, chaotic and embarrassing! I guess meeting the deadline for pull out was more important to Biden than ensuring the safe evacuation of persons and equipments. |

[quote author=Jerryherd post=104895733] ![]() Mutual feelings... Not expecting any political logical comment from a flat header whose ancestors down to him and ethnicity of 30 million humanoid can't produce a fvcking President in 50 years , vice in 35, senate President in 15 , Speaker in 35.... I mean they can't even gain independence from a fellow black African Nigeria to have a Biafra Nation I guess eating akpu is the only feat they are meant to achieve if your tribe produce a fucking president for one million years,it can't improve an average life condition of your tribe,they remain a cursed being on the planet earth. |

Meninmen:So what should America have done differently? How should they have carried out their withdrawal from Afghanistan with only 2500 left in country? Keep in mind that the President already announced weeks ago his intentions regarding the withdrawal, including the evacuation of Afghans who helped the coalition, and he did just that. He even promised airstrikes to aid the Afghan govt slow the Taliban advance. What else should he have done? Let his nation spend more years in Afghanistan |

descartes400:Trump also released 5000 Taliban fighters as part of the deal, in return Taliban promise to be moderate n no longer extremist. This is the same as when buhari forgive repented Boko Haram, thats exactly what Trump did. Your so called trump really had a deal with terrorist and believe they will no longer be extremist. Even you will not be that foolish. Immediately I saw "condition base" I knew you had no idea what you were talking about. |

Meninmen:Lol. I think you are confused. "That Afghan soldiers and Afghan citizens couldn't defend their country against the Taliban" is the issue. If the Afghan soldiers could defend Kabul, then Taliban wouldn't have been there and all those images you saw wouldn't have happened. The US didn't plan on closing the embassy that soon, as they thought the Afghan army could stand up to the Taliban. So, there was a mad rush to close the embassy and evacuate everyone as the AFGHAN ARMY defected and let the Taliban take over the WHOLE country. As to the weapons; most of them were already evacuated. The weapons the Taliban have are the ones they took from the Aghan army who defected (again, you see how that matters). Or do you think the US should have taken back the Guns, tanks and planes we gave them before we left. And China/Russia needs those weapons? lol. Jesus, get a clue. And as to the helicopter. No, that wasn't the last time it was used. Honestly, these aren't easy issues. Try to do more thinking and less talking. I'll post this again so you can get a better idea of what brought us here: Trump made a deal with the Taliban (without the current Afghan government in the room), that by May 1st 2021 the US would leave. And the US wanted a cease fire until then. In return the Trump admin would release 5000 prisoners (one of them who is the Taliban Leader now). In the process Trump drew down the troops and all the supplies needed to maintain them from 14000 to 2500 which was finished the week before Biden was sworn in. He boxed Biden in and bragged about it. He effectively gave the country over to the Taliban. His own words. https://twitter.com/WUTangKids/status/1427325408148590597 "I started the process, All the troops are coming back home. They couldn’t stop the process. 21 years is enough. Don’t we think? 21 years. [The Biden administration] couldn’t stop the process. They wanted to, but it was very tough to stop the process." So, on May 1st the Taliban was going to start a new offensive with the aid of the 5000 newly released prisoners. Biden had 2 choices, surge more troops in so he could have time to draw them down or pull everyone out (the same things the Generals told Obama more than 10 years ago); he didn't want to get again boxed in by the military to keep troops for another 10 years. He extended the deadline from May till Sept. He thought he would have 6 month then 90 days.. well until the Afghan army folded. Just to get an idea, Trump left 2500 troops there before he left, we have about 6000 troops there now just to offer protection for the evacuation. If Biden would have wanted to stay longer he would have needed to surge some people say another 100,000 troops to fight the Taliban. |

Meninmen:Do u know US has been pulling their troops out since the time of Obama, trump made it official. You think Biden just woke up one morning and said everybody should come home. Biden didn't hurrily remove US troops as u are insinuating, they have been leaving gradually ever since. |

Meninmen: Who exactly do u tink d Taliban is? Space men? They are Afghans! So, wot do u mean Afghans cud not secure their country from Taliban? As for protracted pull out of troops or wotever u mean, its d same in the end. Do know that song by Linkin Park IN THE END, IT DOESNT REALLY M-A-T-T-E-R OH OH? All dat twenty yrs, how good was the US in securing civilians from the Taliban? Who has The Taliban attacked since it took control of the country? Why is there so much noise for NOTHING? Wot useless US equipment will fall into Taliban hands? Equipment dat cud not help the US escape defeat? Wot does Taliban need such equipment for? Wot does Russia and China need it for? If the Taliban beat US forces in their teeming numbers is it wen the US military is withdrawing small small that Taliban will become helpless? Listen to Joe Biden, THERE IS NEVER A BETTER TIME TO WITHDRAW. If they delayed the withdrawal till next year, it will still be bad. |
