I posted a tweet about a week ago and shared it with LinkedIn and other news feeds. In the body I stated that Breaking: #Americans are leaving as the #Talibans are invading & the Afghanistan people that work with the Americans are left stranded. What was the use of all this in the first place? Absolutely ridiculous. You see the Afghans running after the plane hanging onto the plane trying to escape.
Did y’all watch the movie #SuicideSquad2. You see how our American politicians work? Watch it. It resembles what’s happening here please do. We just blamed #trump for leaving the #kurds stranded now #biden is doing the same thing & worse the Taliban is back in power & this is #ominous!
What was Trump doing over the 4 years while in power with regards to #afghanistan and the #Taliban? How is it that we could now leave and suddenly we are rushing out so as to mitigate the invasion and penetration of the Taliban? Wherever did they come from. All we did was to provide them with time and space to hibernate rejuvenate and grow so that now as we leave, they can take over and return us to #suicidebombings and 9/11 type attacks. What’s happening here with our political and military strategies? Update: #Biden sent an additional 1000 troops to assist with the withdrawal efforts. This is to assist with the withdrawal efforts.
Today we are reliving my fears about suicide bombers and Taliban type attack, as 12 US service members killed in Kabul airport explosion, officials say: suicide bombing outside of Kabul, Afghanistan’s airport Thursday has killed 12 U.S. service members, officials tell Fox News. A second explosion later took place outside the Baron Hotel, sources say.
Breaking: Two explosions at Kabul’s airport killing Americans and Afghan civilians. It was a suicide type attack perpetrated by Taliban-Isis and their cronies working against the Americans. It’s a complete failure what has happened here. The US and their allies have lost control and cannot affect a contingency plan that will save face or lead to an effective and quick evacuation. The plan was weak kneed and lack vision, the US exit strategy. It has recreated the issue that caused the invasion in the first place. The sophistication and meticularity that usually mark US strategy is replaced with political divisions and myopia that have led to this catastrophe.
Absolutely ridiculous what’s happening. Again the #US fail to plan around intelligence warning of the #Taliban and the instability that could surround the withdrawal. Instead, the #US continue with business as usual only to find ourselves in this #mess! And now this attack.
And what has been the #US response to their incompetence here… #threats #Biden and his #Dogs threaten a swift and deadly retaliation if their peoples and efforts are thwarted by the #taliban and their #friends. Yet in spite of all their barking, there’s been no sharp reply
But then if the #US respond forcefully then this will no doubt create another war that never ends. It’s the cycle all over again.
You know, #Biden and his strategist are very surface level. This #Afghanistan debacle was probably a set up. #Trump planned a pull-out from #Afghanistan that he did not commit to until after the elections, Paving the way for an exit that #Trump knew from intelligence would fail
Biden who was an opponent of the US in #Afghanistan walked right into this #Trump strategy without any research and an effective plan. Now his presidency is on the line as his competence is in question.
Additional Note: After spending US$987 Billion in #afghanistan over the last 21 years fighting a war to either help our position to eliminate any threats to Americans posed by the Taliban and their friends (Isis Al-Quaeda) and or to assist with humanitarian efforts to protect the locals who are under Taliban dictatorship and violent totalitarianism, we end up leaving with nothing! The Taliban is back and has already killed 13 Americans and injured several and has taken several US Military equipment worth hundreds of billions of dollars while our efforts to empower the Afghans have proven futile as the top military brass and the so-called Afghan American allies have surrendered, retreated and fled to Uzbekistan 🇺🇿 and other countries without putting up a fight! So, the US must now bring all these Afghans to the US after all that investment and without any commitments from the Afghans to fight their own war to keep their country. They are not interested in that at all only to flee to the US etc. what catastrophe and what mess!
