Will Afghanistan sink Biden?
Jump to: Newest in thread
He is pathetic. Not compared to anyone else...just pathetic. Was pathetic as a VP, has a pathetic family, a pathetic view of minorities, a pathetic view of working class, a pathetic view of the military he is commander in chief of and is manipulated at every turn because he deep down knows he is pathetic and their ideas must be better than his. No mean tweets though. |

This is an utter humiliation for the US and UK but it was Captain Bonespurs who started the withdrawal, not Biden. It just shows how utterly pathetic the right are to attack Biden for implementing their plan. |

"It was a NATO operation, not just the US and UK!
Where did the majority of troops come from?"
Several countries had more troops than the UK.
The US had the biggest number, some 3500 at the start of the year. |

Then it's a humiliation for them too, and a tragedy for the Afghan people we promised so much to. |

"Will this end with him getting forced out?"
No - but after mid-term elections, it's likely to make him a lame duck and it'll bugger his chances for a 2nd term (if he ever had any).
It's interesting to note - like it or not - that the Taliban have (effectively) taken control of the whole of Afghanistan with minimal bloodshed; something the USA/UK and their allies were never able to do.
Why? Well, because the Taliban, fucking awful as they undoubtedly are, were not resisted.
The uncomfortable truth is that most Afghans would rather be alive, under a shit government, than die resisting it; particularly the men, for whom it won't be anywhere near as bad.
The Afghans, of course, are not unique in preferring life, no matter how low in quality, to being dead.
The mantra "Better to die on your feet, than live on your knees" is bullshit a lot easier to spout - especially for the 99% of us with no military training - than it is to live up to.
The Taliban are shite. That they are in power without a civil war and huge bloodshed is good. |

The pictures this morning of sky full of choppers was very reminiscent of the mad scramble out of Saigon at the end of the Vietnam debacle.
An embarrassing shambles for the US, and by association, for the UK too....
Utterly shameless!! |

Between Trump and Biden they have put all the afghan people in danger. I worked out there for 4 years and made alot of friends. We had afghan people working with us and now they and their whole families are in danger of persecution and death. I hope to hod NATO Get to grips with this before genocide starts. |

Yep, and sure Putin, Jinping and Lukashenko are laughing thier bollox off today, shaking in thier boots of the mighty Alliance.
NATO has again proven to be ineffective, disorganised bunch of clowns only capable of destruction of countries.
We are going to pay a very heavy price from Afghanistan itself along the loss of respect for an organisation that can only fight within itself..
I thought Iran, Ireland, Lebanon and the Cold War of the 80s were bad times. Another periah state siding up to Russia and China, "mission accomplished" using the words if an ex US president.
Vietnam, Iraq, Syria and now Afghanistan, how many more countries will they turn inside out and walk away for it to implode into oblivion..

No… he is enacting a trump policy decision…..
The whole timetable was ludicrous… telling the opposition exactly when you were going to leave was not the wisest decision |

Trump did begin this saga but Biden had the power to either overturn the decision or at least modify the plans. He is commander in chief at the time it was implemented. No idea how the American public will view this other than being glad its nearly over. The responsibility is Biden's alone |

Yes and no…..
Trump agreed to it at Doha, trump actually sped up the leaving process between his election defeat and bidens inauguration… trump put in some of his own people at the DOD to slow down any Biden changes…
But yes.. if you are going to give Biden credits for the vaccine rollout the you have to criticise him for this execution of policy….
It’s not like we didn’t see this coming… the US left the Kurds high and dry so why did we expect this to be different! |

Yep that's why I mentioned trump started the saga and if he had still been in power I doubt the situation would be any different. I know exceptionally little about American politics and presidential power's but would be surprised if a new president did not have the power to overturn or change a policy that is flawed. Either way as always the military are left to try and make the best of a bad situation |

Looks like the USA Got rid of the most pathetic lying piece of crap TRUMP and from what I see Biden is doing a better job. Pathetic indeed that they ever had an excuse for a human being in power namely DONALD TRUMP |

I don't think the situation will get Biden the boot immediately. He's obviously damaged by it, though. (Yes I know Trump started and agreed the withrawal, but Biden was in the hot seat when this whole thing went down.)
But I also think it could get much worse for him if there are some v public atrocities by the taliban.
It's the people of the country you've gotta feel really sorry for. 20 years as a warzone. Then they just got thrown to the wolves. |

I would say, no matter what Biden did. It would be wrong in the eyes of Trumps core supporters:
If he left the troops in place and one soldier suffered an injury. The righties would be shaking their fists saying that if Biden had got the soldiers out when they were supposed to. Then everything would have been ok.
So he's got the troops out. As per Trumps plan and the righties are still unhappy. |

This withdrawal will age well, just like the one out of Saigon. Krystal and Saagar just had a very good segment about it. After $trillion spent on securing the country while training the Afgan military, they didn't even try to resist the taliban insurgence. There's no amount of years, dollars and lives that can be spent further to improve the situation, so why postponing it?
True, the withdrawal was terribly botched but still necessary. Maybe 10 years too late even |

It's difficult for this to go too badly for Biden.
Very few of the West's public want a continued presence in Afghanistan. It's difficult for those who opposed the the invasion (broadly the left) or those who supported a withdrawal (broadly the right) to complain. Although they will give it a go in the short term.
This time around I suspect that the Taliban will keep a tight lid on terrorist exports so that they can make money from exporting opium and minerals.
Horrible situation for anyone wishing to educate themselves or better their country. |

The Leader of the Taliban has already had high level talks with China, some weeks ago.
Its in the Chinese interests to ally themselves in Afghanistan. There are trillions of dollars of minerals ready to be mined, and many millions of dollars of opium to destabilise the West. |

Always.
Religion is often a justification to impose control and retain power. "God said".
You can see that the world over throughout history. |

China is not Russia. They want a stable West to buy their stuff.
They just don't want anyone to interfere with the internal control of their population. That describes a world of horrors of course. |

it was the same over here in the 1920s, women were for raising kids/house work and the men went out to work and down pub afterwards and no one invaded us to tell us any different!
Men over here should get a grip and put us bitches back in our place! Posts like mine happen if you let the girls read and write! its against the rules of nature!!!!
Is any of that bidens fault or trumps, no, but biden could have organised it all better, dont think he expected the afghan government to just roll over!

I think you underestimate the people of that land. The majority want the Taliban, and at the very least if you disagree with that acknowledge they would rather the Taliban than US and British armed forces.
People forget, since Alexander the great people have tried to conquer that land with bigger armies and better military technology, yet no one has succeeded. So although they may not want the Taliban, they prefer them over anyone else, because at least they are Afghan |

Because of the corruption in that country most if not all of the governors of the individual provinces had probably already come to a deal with the Taliban to just roll over  |

well the miscalculation was at the start 20 years ago, when they thought training and arming afghans would stop taliban, you can see the sense in that decision if you ignore many afghans are taliban! |

He looks to me as if he is suffering with some form of dementia, I think this is also why he doesn't do Q and A at the end of statements, his people only want him to read from the autocue and seem to want him off stage ASAP all the while, sad to see really. |

Doubt it but won't do him much good either. Just seen a clip of him at a media briefing type thing and it turns out he does not take questions from the press. One tried to ask and he said he is not supposed to take questions. He did allow the question but it was on Afghanistan to which he slapped the desk and walked off with no answer. That sort of thing will not do any good either |

Indeed. Although, just maybe - if Churchill was right about them - the Americans are about to do the right thing?
Only kidding - they haven't actually tried everything else yet.
I'd be unsurprised if we get a lot of "That didn't work; why don't we do it again?"
They're slow learners when it comes to foreign policy. |

The USA under Biden has now left 1000s of small arms in the hands of people who will sell them over the world for the next 20 years, to groups willing to murder others. They had time to remove every weapon they toke over there. Idiots. No one believes the lies about people left behind as they have transfered every one that may be of use to them in the future. Truth is they dont give a fu-k about those left to be murdered.

It was Trump, not Biden who negotiated the US withdrawal with the Taliban."
He might have started the negotiations but Biden rushed things and didn't renegotiate or even try to.
