There's not much to say that hasn't already been said regarding Biden's unconditional surrender to the Taliban, and it's only the first week. Bookshelves will be filled with analyses of these events, and we won't understand their full ramifications for decades. My two cents, for what they're worth, are that the left doesn't consider the fall of Kabul and the betrayal of our allies to be a tragedy. Rather, this is deliberate foreign policy strategy, and it's right on track.
The pattern is clear for those who wish to see. Simply put, the left thinks America is not only evil, but irredeemably so

The scary thing is that this article might even be right -- that America is indeed now ruled by people who hate America.. "The campus elitists, Black Lives Matter, the Antifa incels, and the Squad knaves couldn't be happier."
The concept that America is a great, generous, inclusive and highly principled country is currently an unheard message. But it will come roaring back in 2022.

Article is spot on.
Obama has always hated America, was raised by a pedophile Marxist, and has and will continue to do everything in his power to destroy us. Sadly, he is succeeding at warp speed.
I weep for our country...

Somebody finally get it! We lost Afghanistan because the Left controls everything, and it was what the Left wanted. It really is that simple.

This article is over the top. The WH believed that bringing the troops home would be a win, but they didn’t think it through. The last thing they wanted to do was abide by Trump's plan. Those jerks didn’t expect this debacle to unfold. It’s typical liberal naivety, thinking a strongly worded letter will change an enemy's opinion. The Republicans better pounce on this now and keep it in the forefront because memories are short.

It's the hostage taker's logic: "Don't make me kill my hostage!"
Except in this case, They ARE killing the hostage, to impress on everyone's minds that any rescuers would have fsiled, anyway, and it's the rescuers fault for existing. Their own evil doesn't matter.
Basically, until we develope the balls to stop them, we're to blame for what they do. In a sense, they're right...
...Evil triumphs when good men do nothing.
So when are we going to get off our asses?

FTA - "Our kids' grandkids will be fighting the wars that result from this and will likely do it alone. Far from being a tragedy, our abandonment of Afghanistan was one of the left's biggest foreign policy successes. "
Biden you cheater, thanks for nothing, fool. Resign in disgrace...now.

I agree with this. The rout in Kabul, and its country, is in the same spirit, exactly, as the rout at the Biden open border. But with Biden, it's not really the Lefty hate American thing, it is, for Biden, a pure and thus far quite successful personal and familial career corruption--a character-influencer that he shares with so many of his brothers and sisters on Capitol Hill. It is an opportunity to pay the bribes of China and Radical Islam to keep his own easily earned money in his pocket, and let the American people pay for his treason and corruption. If my friends on Lucianne think this analysis is extreme, they should take a long hard look at the last year in America, and what has been happening. And, to Reply Number 5: If you really think the Republicans are going to save us, I don't think you've been paying attention. By now, Biden should be in the dock for treason. Instead, the Republicans are doing in Congress what they do best: yakking and creating new so-called investigations (!!!), and indulging in CYA exercises while the American people, and all those in the Taliban force field, are shafted, again.

This article covers it all nothing has to be explained. The figure 44% support Biden's decision tells you who the enemy is. With that number along with some cheating democrat American haters will be in charge for a long time. Biden the senile old coot isn't going anywhere he's here to stay until the next hater comes along so forget about the republicans doing anything there are some that are in the 44% who support this move. The Taliban won because time was on their side not ours.

The radical's rule book has at least one high creed: Don't let a good crisis go to waste; make one if there isn't one available. Saul Alinsky was so enamored of chaos, that he dedicated his manifesto to Satan. Biden could no more stop this than he could think it up. But there are ashes on his coat and a lingering sulphur aroma about him.

Believe the headline. The Deep State bureaucrats who fought against everything that President Trump did, WANTED this outcome. Count on it. Know it. THIS is how they wanted it to happen.

FTA: "My two cents, for what they're worth, are that the left doesn't consider the fall of Kabul and the betrayal of our allies to be a tragedy."
Frankly, the US "betrayed" no one. The Afghans were headed to this ignominious end regardless of when the US left...and one would think all can agree that there was a time for withdrawal over perpetual "allied" presence there.
The "betrayal" was on the part of the Afghans, hardly valiant in their own defense from a foe they knew coming to impose a strict, oppressive way of life Americans cannot understand under a set of religious laws that aren't Christian. The betrayal was a national security force that stacked weapons and ran. A government whose officials were stuffing US cash into suitcases before waving goodbye at the front of the bug out brigade. Afghanistan is THEIR country. They were not our allies; we were THEIR allies in reforming their society and bringing it out of the bronze age. The US did not fail; they failed themselves.
Yes, the withdrawal is chaos. When aren't they? Sad that we leave our wonderful friends behind to face their fates, but they chose that themselves.

Great article. However the Criminal Enterprise called "The Democratic Party" started with the Clintons. Mysterious deaths, Arkansas State Prisoners illegal blood sales (google Bill Clinton blood sales") all ending with their fraudulent charity fund. Add in the most fraudulent politician in world history (Obama) and top all with the disgusting Biden family. American democratic voters should bury their heads in shame!!

This article indicates that the leftist and socialist Democrats do not care, as time goes by, that the “Tollybon” as Biden and Obama call them, are gaining the capability on the ground to completely surround the Kabul Airport in depth and eventually have the capability to pin down the American infantry units now at the airport. Biden now has 7,000 troops at that airport who will need all sorts of additional logistic support soon, and if the “Tollybon” decide that no more US aircraft should be allowed to land of takeoff there will be a problem. While the “Tollybon” may well be happy to “kick” all American and other foreign civilians out of Afghanistan, but chances are it will be another story when it comes to the Americans trying to take large numbers of the educated Afghans who helped the Americans out of Afghanistan, as the “Tollybon” no doubt has plans to locate and murder many of those Afghans. Then the only way Biden will be able to get the American troops themselves, and the friendly Afghans out, is by providing the “Tollybon” with billons of dollars in US foreign aid, that will really be a massive bribe. The leftist and socialist Democrats might well do that as Biden, as an old line liberal Democrat has always been ready to throw US taxpayers money at every problem, so a huge bribe is not out of the question. It will be interesting. It is also out of the realm of possibility that Trump would have ever allowed or presided over such a retreat fiasco that is sure to come back and bite the USA for years.

He hits the nail on the head! Commies and Socialist punks have nothing but contempt for us poor unwashed Rubes who didn’t attend Columbia or Princeton! We feel thankful for the wonder of the American experiment! How cute (they muse) from their lofty positions over us Common People! At least we can’t get into the local yacht club!!!
