What a track record for foreign interventions for NATO. Libya is of course easily forgotten now, but it's equally bad shitshow.

Currently retired Lt Gen H. R. McMaster on CNN just ripping on President Biden. Mind you, McMaster is a Trump guy.
Whilst McMaster is correct in being critical in the horrendous lack of planning from the Biden people, I thank God Trump isn't in the White House, today. Donald was an impetuous child in most respects. In addition, Trump would likely be on the phone with Putin getting advice on how to handle the Afghan exit or too busy entertaining Kenya West in the oval office

This isn't about Trump now. This is about a gibbering collection of organs pretending to able lead the free world.

What's the point of blowing up people at Kabul airport?

When cable news uses Trump loyalists, yeah it's relevant

I'm a week ahead of you with feeling Biden needs to go. The only reason I didn't express my feeling about needing to minimizing Biden's abilities to make shit worse, it's because some idiot fake bomber had been saying it in DC when I wanted to express that sentiment

Biden is a total disaster. He's now energised global Jihad just in time for the 9/11 anniversary.
Get ready for President Harris and her Christmas gift buying advice.

Trump's admin had often considered a dumpster fire. Now. Biden is dealing with an exploding dumpster fire

Jeez,
I'd imagine Biden is at this moment being briefed on retaliation options

This is going to escalate even faster

Constantly at the STD clinic.
These things make no sense. How is a Chinese middle class person meant to have their own opinion or influence anything when they live under a Communist regime hell bent on eradicating such individualistic traits. Those ideals are western and don't belong in a Chinese state.
Rising middle class means more Chinese can afford to travel, study abroad and bring back ideas home. It also means more westerners going there for businesses. It's not North Korea in there you know.

no-one in particular
They want to kill Americans and/or any foreigners.
Taliban and ISIS 101
They're not likely to kill a lot of foreigners there and there's no chance this is Taliban. IS-K looks very intent on becoming the biggest misery for the Afghan people going forward.

Despite having initiated the US withdrawal in the first place, Trump would've sent more troops in. (Great ratings).

Fomenting terror, attempting to humiliate foreign forces as they leave, making the Taliban look inept, potentially starting a shooting situation between the US and Taliban etc.

Sometimes I doubt suicide bombers think it through that deep.
