We should not forget Afghanistan.

So, thank God, Biden got us out of Afghanistan with no loss of life and no one left behind. Hah!

At least that one is not a lie, although it would be if they claimed it. Instead, as the media and the D party are now tied together (as Psaki gets ready to go over to MSNBC), most media simply ignores it. Fox doesn't. At least Sean Hannity. The Wall Street Journal doesn't. I'm sure some other right-wing media. But, the mainstream, that is leftist media does want you to know, as it is with all of the failures and march towards fascism, so they ignore it.

This was in the WSJ May 10, 2022.

"Though it gets little Western coverage these days, Afghanistan continues to regress. On Saturday the ruling Taliban ordered all women to fully cover themselves in public. This is a tragedy for the women and men of Afghanistan, and it’s a reminder of the nightmare for the Americans still trapped there.

 

Secretary of State Antony Blinken recently testified on Capitol Hill that 126 Americans remain in Afghanistan. He added that 37 seek to leave and are being assisted by the State Department. A congressional source told us that the figure may underestimate the number of U.S. citizens who want to get out, as some want to leave but need to get their affairs in order first.

 

Mr. Blinken noted that the U.S. had helped more than 600 American citizens leave the country since the end of August, but hundreds have come forward since the panicked withdrawal ended. The process has been uneven: Some freedom-of-movement issues are resolved, then others spring up. Leaving the country remains difficult.

 

The Administration vows to assist any Americans who want to leave. But that is the least it can do after the rushed retreat and the casual approach to evacuations that preceded it."

It doesn't say, and of course the world doesn't need reminding - they know - it was the worst military debacle in American history and if there was any media, and the Ds were not in power, Biden would have been impeached just for that alone. 13 Americans needlessly died that we know about when the imprisoned ISIS members, released when the Taliban swept the country, murdered them at the last airbase with a bomb. But, tens of thousands of Afghanis died, including those who helped us, and as many or more were stranded there with Taliban animals.

Bush (in later years), Obama, Trump and Biden all wanted out. Even Obama understood you just couldn't leave and in fact ramped up our troops when necessary. Biden, however, is literally an idiot in terms of decisions and policy, plus, could care less about our troops lives and certainly Afghani ones.  

Trump's endeavors, if you look at the military deaths inside Afghanistan over the years, partially pacified (the Taliban still controlled much of the country). He early on announced his desire to leave, but to show the Taliban we did not care about timelines, increased our forces in 2017 and then slowly and carefully reduced troops to about 2500 and basically maintained the peace. 

American Military Killed in Action by hostile forces per president by year (through January of next year following election):

Bush: 2001- 1/2008:  424 dead/8 years = 53 average

Obama: 2/2009-1/2017: 2873/8 years =359

Trump: 44/4 years = 11 

Indeed, so effective was the deterrence of the Taliban that in the last 10 months of 2020 (so, under Trump) there were 0 deaths (and 2/4 earlier that year were in training exercises) and that continued through the next year until the Biden debacle where 13 were killed and tens of thousands of Afghanis, some in such fear that they literally died falling off planes that they were hanging onto to try and escape. Taliban in Afghanistan: Terrifying Video Shows People Falling Off Plane Mid-Air In Kabul - Bing video. Remember Biden saying there would be no Saigon-like evacuation? It was far worse. It is painful to watch these videos. 

The fantasy that it could not have been avoided is frankly, not fantasy, but lies. The military knew this would happen. Our intelligence was aware it would happen. This has all been admitted despite Biden's continuous lies. Only Biden, demanding our flight by a deadline, having our troops leave before our citizens and the Afghanis who helped us, is responsible. Leaving at all when the Taliban violated the agreement by immediately seizing territory while the Afghani army, really not a military force at all, collapsed. 

This is from NBC News (August 17, 2021). NBC! Basically a spokesman for the Democrat Party (CIA warned of rapid Afghanistan collapse. So why did U.S. get it so wrong? (nbcnews.com)).

"As the Taliban began seizing provinces across Afghanistan in recent weeks, the CIA’s intelligence assessments began to warn in increasingly stark terms about the potential for a rapid, total collapse of the Afghan military and government, current and former U.S. officials told NBC News."

. . .

On the surface, it’s a stark contrast from what the president had said just a month ago. Speaking in the same room July 8, the president was asked directly about reports that he was presented intelligence predicting a rapid collapse of the Afghan government without a continued U.S. presence. At first, Biden challenged the premise.

“That is not true. They did not reach that conclusion,” he said then.

Trump's agreement for us to leave required the Taliban to behave itself and was the premise of our phased withdrawal, not frantic flight.

"The peace deal contains classified and unclassified portions and the central themes of the agreement are: (1) the prevention of future threats against the United States and its allies from terror groups operating from Afghanistan soil; (2) the withdrawal of all American and coalition forces from Afghanistan; and (3) a commitment from the Taliban towards an intra-Afghan negotiation that would include a permanent ceasefire."

Arguably, there is no way we could ever know what the Taliban's behavior would be after we left, but we did not have to leave before we got out all Americans and allies out. The military should have come last. As it was, they were put in a far worse situation than Saigon and everyone but Biden knew it would happen. The deaths caused by ISIS were prefaced by warnings that it was going to happen. 

All we managed to do was blow up a family and claim it was ISIS.

Moreover, General Milley, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (who I have little respect for) admitted that the war in Ukraine is quite possibly as a result of Putin's having watched us in Afghanistan.

I know the media won't remind you, so I will, Britain's parliament literally condemned us for our idiocy (really, Biden's idiocy) in the way we handled matters.

The idiocy continues. In December, the administration claimed that it had repatriated 500 Americans after the frantic pull-out and that there were less than a dozen left. Now, they admit there are over 100 still - almost a half year later - and that it is trying to get out 37 and others remain. Their nightmare isn't the administration's concern, apparently. They almost never speak of it and always deflect. Indeed, Biden said that he rejected the military's reports that it had warned this would happen. 

How does he still have around 40 % approval? Afghanistan is only one of the reasons he needs to be - should be - impeached, while Trump was impeached on the phony Ukraine myth because of a one sentence request on an open line to investigate corruption (whereas Biden has bragged about his actual coercion of Ukraine when Vice President), yet the deaths of these Americans in Afghanistan and so many Afghanis goes uncared for, unnoticed by the media and frankly, roughly half the country.

Our media could care less. His supporters could care less (as long, I guess, as he pushes for the death of fully grown babies in the womb and that the military be woke, if unprepared). Our allies and potential allies won't forget. Our enemies won't. Even General Milley has admitted it may be one reason Putin decided to invade Ukraine. Milley and another general on the Joint Chiefs of Staff have also admitted that Biden was warned to keep troops there - 2500 of them, that is - Trump levels. The Generals Contradict Biden on Afghanistan - WSJ.

You just don't get it (Democrat friends). Biden did not care about our troops. He didn't care about the embarrassment to our country and all those dead or abandoned Afghanis. He doesn't care about Americans left there and he certainly doesn't care about you.
