Unless your position is that Trump was lying. So your position is the army generals told Biden it was a stupid plan and Biden did it anyway? So Biden is an idiot who doesn't listen.

Unless your position is that Trump was lying. Oh, you're always imagining Trump is lying, when it's mostly you lying about Trump and Biden. Get over it. Trump ordered a withdrawal, but not a total withdrawal. The plan was to maintain enough presence, that could be quickly expanded, to persuade the Taliban to fulfil the agreement totally if they didn't. That said, Trump strongly wanted out of that war, no doubt about that. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Standard deflection from a troll. Tell us about Trump ordering a withdrawal from Afghanistan before January 2021, and how that would have gone. A classic troll tactic is to post a lie, and then change the subject when challenged. You're not a troll are you? How does trolling convince anyone? We should be trying to educate each other here.

Support for Ukraine is flagging in the west. Note the Bundestag just the other day refused to send Taurus missiles to Ukraine. Ukraine has no economic value to the West. It's all political theatre. The Cold War was over, old Soviet Union gone. Putin was pretty much staying in his lane. No point in expanding NATO to Ukraine as Biden went and blathered about. In fact the need for NATO in the modern world order is questionable. Or it WAS, until this screwup. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main reason nowadays the big munitions-supplying countries like to expand NATO is that it means big money for their industries. Meanwhile, Biden can't manage to suppress a stone age tribe of Houtis. Shooting down $2000 drones with $2M missiles. More brilliance. It's only money--borrowed money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"President Donald Trump ordered a rapid withdrawal of all U.S. troops from Afghanistan and Somalia in the wake of his 2020 election loss, but senior officials never followed through on the plan, according to testimony released by the congressional January 6 committee on Thursday. “The order was for an immediate withdrawal, and it would have been catastrophic,” said Rep. Adam Kinzinger, R-Ill., one of two Republican members of the special panel. “And yet President Trump signed the order.” https://www.militarytimes.com/news/pentagon-congress/2022/10/13/trump-ordered-rapid-withdrawal-from-afghanistan-after-election-loss/#:~:text=President Donald Trump ordered a,January 6 committee on Thursday. And despite the fact that the Taliban repeatedly violated the agreement, that didn't move Trump to delay the pullout. Top US Commander Doubts Afghan Taliban Commitment to Peace The United States is not ready to abandon its agreement with the Taliban in Afghanistan, but the general in charge of U.S. forces in the region says there are signs the deal ultimately may be doomed. U.S. Central Command’s General Kenneth McKenzie said Thursday that despite a pledge to reduce violence, the frequency of Taliban attacks across Afghanistan remained troubling. "I would not consider what the Taliban is doing as consistent with any path to going forward to come to a final end state agreement with the current government of Afghanistan,” McKenzie told U.S. lawmakers. https://www.voanews.com/a/south-central-asia_top-us-commander-doubts-afghan-taliban-commitment-peace/6185719.html Edited February 24 by placeholder 1 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
