The international community doesnt vote.
The average American cant identify Afghanistan on a map or tell you what shape it is.

To the public, its a hot desert with huts that we bomb sometimes.

His polling will be in the 30s next week because of this. Americans may not know where Afghanistan is, but the images and scenes are damning.

I just don't get it. Even a translator from Afghanistan said these people are choosing to leave for reasons other than them. These people must not see their country as something worth fighting for.

We don't need anymore people here.

:snoop:


Absolutely insane, people not even wanting to fight for their own country then they want to come here

You're letting your political allegiance get in the way of what you're witnessing...which is an unmitigated disaster of a press conference.


If the market crashes (as expected) his presidency is 6 feet under, not even half way in. He'll be mocked as the current version of Jimmy Carter...an inept, feckless president. Just a different kind of bumbling, babbling old fool that Trump was.


And I say this as a casual observer rooting for nobody...because it's f*ck both parties on my side.





Nah. Biden will survive this and come out on top. We shall see in the coming months which of us is right

We still have military presence in Japan, South Korea and Guam so im not sure the 20 year argument really holds up when comparing it with what was set as standard :manny:
Both countries are self sufficient nation states. They have defense forces and militaries they maintain.

Reason we're leaving afganistan is that they could not maintain that. Not the same situation. Also, we are in those areas more to contain China at this point.

white people shyt i don't know or get it. but war tourism is and has been a thing for years

how you just regurgitate talking points in a rambling random arrangement and just think they'll naturally form a coherent thought is crazy :dahell:

comparing japan in any capacity to the taliban/afghanistan situation is fukking crazy. the japanese actually controlled their own territory. taliban in east and west afg might literally never communicate with one another :dead: they have no economy :dead: 90% illiterate :dead: never maintained a standing sovereign government recognized at any point in history :dead:

and they were trusted with security - why would you ever trust the wellbeing of your citizens to a group that can't even name its own roster from one town to the next

all the hardworking us military that kept shyt to a minimum in bagram is gone you dummy :dead: we don't even have an accurate count of who is there anymore. went from knowing attacks were coming and stopping them to knowing they're coming and getting fukked up :dead:

holy shyt




You are dumbasses because you're too stupid to see I'm not comparing Japan to Afghanistan to say they're the same or even similar.

Another dumbass thought it was crazy for the Americans to have talks and dialogue with the Taliban and I made the argument that we have had way worse enemies than the taliban that we have had dialogue with and normalized relations with. That was my only point, fool.

You're discounting the international community as if our security apparatus is wholly domestic lol. How many bases we have across the world? Never mind our economic fortunes are reliant on international partners, one of which is HOSTILE, to keep your children in cheap clothes, you driving nice cars and the such. Our economic fortunes are indirectly reliant on our ability to PROJECT POWER..if our international partners suspect that the blade of our swords wax dull then we will see expedited manuevers to pull away from the US to cover themselves in the event that we suffer a "Rome" like disorderly collapse.
