Best speech ever.... Blunt and straight forward

20 years ago, US sent Americans to Afghanistan for their own protection, thousands of Americans died, thousands more physical wounded, hundreds of thousands mentally traumatized, 1 trillion wasted in war expenses without any significant results or benefits to American taxpayers or Christian world

Joe Biden made it crystal clear, 20 years ago some American parents might have been sent to a pointless American mission in Afghanistan, in 2021 he is not willing to send more of the war veterans kids again to witness pointless war their parents witnessed

If you wish to join the Fight as a righteous Christian to defend Afghan Shi'ite, Sunni Muslim or orthodox Catholic, take a flight to Kabul

Joe Biden as a Father watched his son fight as a US Army Major from 2002 to 2015 in the Middle east till he died... That's personal sacrifice of a father

Exactly

Everybody just want to use the development in Afghanistan to sound relevant. So it's only from Afghanistan that an attack against the U.S can be planned? Yemen has been a safe haven to terrorists for decades, yet we haven't seen any terrorist attack emanate from there
Yemenis at the moment are in a middle of a full blown civil war.
No time to be thinking of external attacks

Why I referenced Trump is because he would have done a better job than Biden!

Biden just blamed trump . It was trumps policy. That’s funny because so far Joe’s only policy has been to undo trumps , check the borders crisis. But in this calamity it’s all trumps fault . He is such a disgrace. Joe biden will go down as the worst president to live in the white house

Biden acts as if he was bound by the agreement President Trump made. The man has overturned virtually everything President Trump has done, doing so in this case would've been just another day at the office. What a lame excuse.

I agree the Afghans needs to step up to the plate, after nearly 20 years of support. However, the withdrawal without any pre-conditions is just another blunder from incompetent President Joe Biden

President Trump’s agreement was “conditions-based”. The Taliban ignored those conditions under Biden, and Biden ignored them as well. No excuse for Biden’s inept and disastrous pull-out.

This is not a question whether The US stay in Afghanistan. It is an issue of his negligence of planning and due diligence for a credible withdrawal. Yet still he tries to deflect.

As for the US mid-term Election slated for November next year is I believe the Republicans will claim the house back and probably impeach this inept President.
I'll leave you Trump's own words.

"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."

Actually he was bound by the agreement

Trump has moved all but 2500 troops behind , who would be ill equipped to face the full wrath of the Taliban IF Joe Biden backed out

Trump fked this up
Joe Biden has to take the fall for it though
Cos he miscalculated a lil bit
Trump you hail is the same fool that betrayed the Kurds after their intense and immense role in dealing with ISIS fighters

coolWho 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. grin 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.

What US force did the Taliban defeat? What battle did the Taliban win? The US wasn't defeated. We did what we came there for and should have left a decade ago. We just left. And don't get too full of yourself, the Taliban drove up in US Humvees with US weapons, flying US helicopters they took when the Afghan army surrendered. Cleary they needed such equiptment.

And I'm ashamed for the Afghanistan. We gave them superior weapons and training and in the end they were either cowards or comfortable allowing their mothers/sisters/daughters to be raped and oppressed by the Taliban.

You really do not understand the issue here. The issue is not whether the US should pull out of Afghanistan. Infact, Trump was the President to sign a deal with the Taliban for the US to pull out of Afghanistan. Most Americans agree that it is time to pull out of Afghanistan, but it is the Manner in which the US pulled out that is the problem. I am a Biden supporter, but his advisers messed him up big-time.
Maybe the advisers did it intentionally

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.

Spot on, nothing wrong with the pull out but the manner in which it was carried out.

Way back, we spoke on how America ( The Sleeping Giant) has become a shadow of itself.
I said here that America has become a bunch of Clown, heading for Destruction and on the edge of Oblivion.

The USA did not just become a world Power because they had the Dollar. It is GOD ALMIGHTY that makes Kings and Brings down kings. The POWERS that be are Ordained by GOD. GOD Blessed the USA and made her a Super Power.

The USA has over the years deviated from the laid down Godly Foundation of the Founding Fathers. The USA was built on Judaic Godly Principles but today it has become a Cesspool of Iniquity, Abominations, Lawlessness ,unGodliness and everything evil.

Trump who was seen as Unqualified and a Fornicator was GOD'S Mercy on the USA to turn them back to their root. I remember I kept vocing it here that Trump is a Mercy Period.

What is happening now to the USA is just a shadow of what is Coming. When GOD Invest in you and you mess up! Once your cup gets full , it is Disater and Destruction.

America today From its Leadership has turned its back on GOD.
GOD has also turned HIS back on her.

If GOD turned His First Born Isreal to a graveyard and drove them out of their land when they messed up, America aka Babylon the Great will not be Spared.

My Admonishment to all and sundry is this, in this Endtimes, there are Nations that are appointed for Destruction, so ensure you seek God's Face and Permission before you go on that trip, because GOD will only protect the Person he sends to a place.
Hmmm!!! Prophet, USSR was known to be Babylon and Not America, God protects everyone regards of who you are. I believe you should know this if youre conversant with your bible as the new covenant has been our saving grace... Your teaching or your preaching is sentimental and not factual most times... Be lead by the spirit, if its a bible verse per day, drop it on nairaland, Do not speak of what God didn't inspire

No wonder the sort of gibberish you put out here Day by day, week by week and month by month.
what Joe Biden said was the truth,how can America defend a country that doesn't want them,they wanted the Taliban,how can the Afghan army capitulate without a fight,not even firing one bullet in anger defending their country and you expect another person from another country to die for your freedom,what you cannot do for yourself,I support the American president 100%,most of this country invasions in the name of war against terror causes more harm than good, remember Libya,Iraq,etc.

The kind of support Taliban is getting from northern Nigeria on social media needs to worry all that is sane...

We are not one
We have never been..

The way the terrorist sympathizers rise against any voice of Truth in the South is alarming.. they want to leave us at their Mercy..

There's fire on the mountain..
Let's seek state police or regional army..
We Southerners need to settle our differences and come back to the round table.. before it's too late

Why don't you go to Afghanistan and sacrifice your life to fight against Taliban? What Biden did was right. Thousands of American soldiers have lost their lives and millions have been traumatized -- hallucinating after returning home

People need to stop feeling that Afghans are entitled to such sacrifice from America. They need to step up and fight their own fight

I won't rule out sabotage by some US generals, opposed to President Biden's move.
Some openly wanted the president to reverse course so what we saw at the airport was a blatant attempt to embarrass the President.
That airport was supposed to be secured.
