CNN reporter slams Biden's disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal

[Counselor706]

CNN reporter Clarissa Ward, the network's chief foreign correspondent, chose the consummate word to describe President Joe Biden's disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal as she waited to depart Kabul on Friday.

While waiting inside the Kabul airport compound for her flight to Qatar, Ward — who had become the face of on-the-ground reporting from Kabul since the Taliban overtook the city — succinctly described Biden's withdrawal as an utter "failure."

"These kids behind me, sleeping on the gravel on a piece of cardboard box, are the lucky ones because there are many others, thousands of them, just outside the perimeter," Ward began. "I saw with my own eyes the Taliban fighters beating them, mothers throwing their babies trying to get them inside the airport compound.

"It is just a picture of desperation– of failure, as well, failure to protect our allies, failure to plan for this eventuality," she proclaimed.

Liz Cheney nails it:

The traitor in chief and Mike Pompeo surrendered to the Taliban with the "Doha deal".

Former Mile Pence aide Olivia Troye nails it:

The traitor in chief sabotaged the SIV program and crippled America's ability to get our Afghan allies out of the country.

President Biden is dealing with another crisis precipitated and exacerbated by the traitor in chief.

Thank You President Biden.

I was told CNN is fake news and they lie a lot.

Can anyone confirm?

One wonders what Zucker is going to say about her jumping off message. We all know CNN is not a news organization, it is a Democrat Propaganda organization that up until now were told exactly what to say by their owner Zucker every morning.

The other possibility is, this may be a signal from the high command in the Democrat hierarchy and the Deep State, that the knives are out for Joe Biden, and that Kamala Harris is being readied to take the helm at the White House.

Biden won't survive this politically. It's just too big and too awful and if Harris is given the hot seat, she'll fuck it up too because she's more incompetent than Biden is.

I'm wondering what the thinking is in India right about now. Pakistan is all that's between them and the Taliban and Pakistan sides with the Muslim jihadis and they both hate the Hindus.

Trumplicans are upset that Biden told the military-industrial complex to fuck off.

Harpy with another ridiculous take.

America will be out of Afghanistan in short order with minimal to no loss of American lives, and this panic will be lost in the next news cycle.

There are international corporate dark interests who wanted America to stay in Afghanistan in perpetuity to provide free security and infrastructure support so they could continue to operate their profitable enterprises, with many of them leeching off the foreign aid provided by U.S. taxpayers; (Liz Cheney continuing to campaign for a permanent U.S. presence in Afghanistan, supports that conclusion.) While Liz Cheney was correct when she stated that the traitor in chief and Mile Pompeo surrendered to the Taliban, she is wrong about the U.S. maintaining a military presence in Afghanistan.

The continued investment of American blood and treasure in Afghanistan is unwise and unwarranted, and the decision to proceed with the exit come hell or high water was the right one.

Thank You President Biden.

Prediction: Democrats are going to suddenly realize Joe is senile and invoke the 25th Amendment to get Veep Throat a little high up the greasy pole she's been climbing since Willie Brown's greasy pole slid down her throat.

Deplorables also predicted that the traitor in chief was going to win a second term and that the republicans would regain the House and keep the Senate, so......

I hope you're right. I don't see it happening, but I hope it does.

Question:

What happens if your little fantasy doesn't come true?

I'd like to think that will happen, but right now the French and British commandos are going door-to-door getting their citizens out, while our troops garrison the airport and the SecDef says we don't have the capability to get everyone out.

But that was The Plan, as Dementia Joe says.

The board Trumpettes certainly are trying hard to do two impossible things, aren't they? To ignore Trump's role in setting this up for failure and trying to hype up what they can on the Biden administration's minor missteps after ignoring Trump's corruption, criminality, treason, congenital lying, sexual predator activity, incompetence, business failures, sexism, racism, white nationalism, nepotism, mental imbalance . . .

Rampant hypocrisy by the board Trumpettes. Who do they think they're fooling?

 

[Lazaran]

Harpy doesn't recognize that it's already coming true.

There is also the reality that America citizens were given over a year's notice that the U.S. was leaving Afghanistan, and they had some personal responsibility to get out on their own. Many gambled that the U.S. would ultimately continue to provide a security presence so they could continue to conduct business in Afghanistan. Oops.

The difficulty our Afghan allies are having in leaving the country is a testament to the traitor in chief's efforts to sabotage the SIV program.

SAD!!!

So, no minimal loss of life like you said would happen?

45 isn't to blame for failing one of many broken campaign promises. Nope. All Biden and Harris. Fuck outta here, dipshit.

Here's where you consistently fuck up. It's true, you just can't admit it when it happens.


Trump did the Doha Deal. Fact, incontrovertible fact.

Why did Biden change the timetable? Why didn't Biden hold to the terms of the deal after the Taliban violated it? What rationale is there for cutting and running while leaving tens of thousands behind to be hunted down by religious lunatics?

Trump didn't do ANY of that. The Doha Deal doesn't mandate ANY of that.

You say you were an analyst, analyze that and come up with an explanation about WHY Biden is doing something so stupid AFTER he was warned about it.

Saying "BUT TRUMP!!!" isn't an analysis, it's bullshit. Something you're so good at I suspect that's what will spew forth in your response even if you don't post it on the board.

Pud's doesn't seem to recognize that the U.S. is doing the yeoman's work of securing the airport, which is allowing those French and British commandos the opportunity to perform their missions.

Also, American troops outside of the airport would be a prime target for an opportunistic terror attack which could derail the entire exit.

Goddamn Pud is ignorant.

SAD!!!

President Rutabaga has had no problem overturning each and every Trump policy, from CRT indoctrination to the Iran nuke deal. Now, with American lives, billions in materiel, and American prestige all in the balance, he follows Trump's plan to the letter?

Not hardly.

Joe laid down the law and demanded an exit based on time. He fucking owns this.

That's so nice. Too bad no Americans can get to that airport due to Taliban checkpoints and perimeter. I'm sure the French and British are appreciative...oh, wait...

Trump did the Doha Deal. Fact, incontrovertible fact.

He sure did, cutting the Afghan government out and signaling and putting into motion the inevitable quick Taliban takeover. In addition, he not only did nothing to effect an orderly withdrawal, his administration did everything it could to fuck it up. Stephen Miller is the direct cause of the current crisis in getting our Afghan assets out of the country. And Trump pressed for the release of the Taliban negotiator to attend the Doha talks--the released Taliban leader who than, released, masterminded the quick Taliban takeover and has waltzed into Afghanistan to become the Taliban government's leader.

Why do you board Trumpettes pick Trump's weakest, most blatantly anti-American and destructive actions on which to take your stands?

 

[Bud_Spencer]

Biden buttfucked our allies, too.

 

[Rightguide]

Harris a disaster, but she may not be to the same degree Biden is. The Presidency and all of the life and death it carries with it might even scare her enough to take direction from more experienced people for another very long 18 months, until a new political dynamic has a chance to form. The other disaster is Jake Sullivan, an academic, who is far too young to have the wisdom to speak with the kind of arrogance he does on foreign policy and national security issues. He's a naïve clown and probably instrumental, along with Tony Blinken, in the design and messaging of this Biden disaster.

I'm wondering what the thinking is in India right about now. Pakistan is all that's between them and the Taliban and Pakistan sides with the Muslim jihadis and they both hate the Hindus.

That Taliban had it's founding in Pakistan by the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) spy agency. All I can say right now is we need to think about the security of Pakistan's nuclear weapons. I'm sure India is more than a little worried that a radical Islamic government could take control in Pakistan. Here is an article you might find interesting:

Dudly, the President of Afghanistan was a puppet instructor from some Ivy League university chosen for his connections to the political underbelly in DC. He was in office long before Trump was elected. Cutting him out was simple because he wasn't ever "in."

If you're going to analyze something, at least TRY to have a few facts before you submit your final paper.

All that was left to do was get the civilians out, then get the embassy personnel out, then support staff, then the soldiers. Then bomb the fuck out of anything we couldn't pack up and haul out.

Anyone with any mind at all could put that basic sequence together. That's why our senile President fucked it up.
