The Taliban has recaptured eight provincial capitals in Afghanistan.  A few more weeks and it will be like we were never there to begin with.  Joe tells the Afghan leaders that they must fight off the Taliban.  You think?  I wonder when the beheadings will start of all of the Afghan citizens who worked with the US?  

 

Ohhh that's coming...

Or he'll cut you off. And trump was also in favor of the pullout, only he didn't have the balls to actually do it....So what's your deal on this??What did you think was going to happen? Oh and a remider, you know they're muslims....getting soft?

END OF MESSAGE

MELANIA Trump was actually in favor of an earlier pullout... but Trump's mushroom dick came in her pussy so she got stuck with another kid with Donny's defective genes.

Possibly the best straight man setup line ever posted on P&R.  Glad to see someone took advantage of it.

 
Somehow I think Stormy Daniels would've worked as well.

from the Vietnam experience that you can't just abandon the people who have helped you get control until you have them properly trained to fend for themselves.  Its a recipe for a massacre.  Trump was not in favor of a rapid exit, but rather a controlled exit over time where they could surgically strike the Taliban if they tried to take over again by force of arms.

Are you referring to the way Trump abandoned the Kurds to the Turks in order to protect his real estate interests in Turkey?

What better way to pay homage to those who were murdered on 9/11 than to invite the Taliban to Camp David on the 18th anniversary?

END OF MESSAGE

Stop pretending this was ever going to end any other way. One of the few things Trump was right about was this war had dragged on far too long. No matter how the end game was organized, the Taliban was always going to stab the other side in the back and take power. Foreign powers have been trying to subdue the Afghans since Alexander the Great. It has never worked and it never will. As the Taliban say, "You have the watches. We have the time."
Get it now?
Prolly not.
PS: If anybody blew this it was Dubya. We were doing reasonably well there at first and his policies seemed to be working. Then he and Cheney and Rummy concocted the phony Iraq war and pulled troops out of the Afghan to do it. By the time Obama got into power and surged more troops back there it was too late. And it's been too late ever since.

didn't play a part in extending the Afghanistan debacle?  You don't even mention him.

As an IL STATE senator in 2002, Obama was outspoken against the Iraq War and said that he would vote against the resolution if he was in the US Senate.

Obama’s War Stance, Revisited
"Obama, Oct. 2, 2002: Now let me be clear – I suffer no illusions about Saddam Hussein. He is a brutal man. A ruthless man.  ... But I also know that Saddam poses no imminent and direct threat to the United States, or to his neighbors, that the Iraqi economy is in shambles, that the Iraqi military is a fraction of its former strength ... I know that even a successful war against Iraq will require a US occupation of undetermined length, at undetermined cost, with undetermined consequences. I know that an invasion of Iraq without a clear rationale and without strong international support will only fan the flames of the Middle East, and encourage the worst, rather than best, impulses of the Arab world, and strengthen the recruitment arm of Al Qaeda. I am not opposed to all wars. I’m opposed to dumb wars."  
.
As POTUS, Obama had to play the hand he was dealt in as diplomatic a manner as possible. He couldn't just abandon Afghanistan and piss on many allied nations who also lent support in the Middle East wars. The surge, though controversial, was an attempt to recover what had been lost due to the expansion to Iraq.  Then, later ...

The Afghan War and the Evolution of Obama
"President Obama’s advisers wrestled with an intractable problem in the spring and summer of 2015: How could they stabilize Afghanistan while preserving Mr. Obama’s longtime goal of pulling out the last American troops before he left office?
.
As it happened, the president solved the problem for them. In early August of that year, when Mr. Obama convened a meeting of the National Security Council, he looked around the table and acknowledged a stark new reality.
.
“The fever in this room has finally broken,” the president told the group, according to a person in the meeting. “We’re no longer in nation-building mode.” ..."

Trump inherited Afghanistan from Bush and Obama. Trump had other ideas about Afghanistan.

You suggested that Certified-Dick-Lover READ before he types.  Number 1 - he's too fucking stupid to read.  Number 2 - it wouldn't matter anyway; he's a fucking liar.

 
You tore Cuck-Da-LIAR a new asshole with the TRUTH - facts, quotes, links.  You made him look like the lazy, ignorant righty he is.
Job well done!

to have BLRPOS's nose up your crack rimming your taint?

to the low information koolaid-drinkers here.  

YOU GOT YOUR ASS THOROUGHLY KICKED by impposter.  He countered your bullshit with the FACTS supported by links.  You had NO substantive response to imp's post.  All you could feebly muster up in return was a weak ad hominem attack.    

 
"Why is it that when you have . . . .no substantive response you think a personal attack will do the trick.  You have no self-awareness about how weak this makes you look.  I don't have to attack you back or call you names.  You are making yourself the biggest moron here all on your own."

You really are a Completely-Dumb-Loser!

The Fall of Saigon II is also apparently the fall of the Biden administration.  Biden is off hiding in a basement somewhere for who knows how long.  And Jen Psaki is now reportedly out of office for the next week.

Fortunately General Milley will be in making sure everyone is using the proper pronouns.  Good job, everyone!

you are such an easy fucking target, and the set up was there from your prior response attacking me, so in reality, trying to hide behind this ancient post of mine makes YOU look like the weak one.  

..."prior response" to you in this thread.

 
Why are you calling your own post "ancient?  Are you trying to demean your own post in some way?  Are you saying that your one year old "ancient post" is BULLSHIT?  Are you saying that the values you expressed in that  year old  post are BULLSHIT?  Are you running away from that post because you're a hypocritical little bitch?

What's wrong with your "ancient post?"  How about the words in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution?  They're "ancient" words as well.  Don't they matter anymore?

 
Those are YOUR WORDS.  I am not "hiding" behind them, I'm throwing them back in your face.  Yet you're somehow dismissing your own words as meaningless only one year later because they're "ancient."    

 
It's laughably pathetic how intellectually inferior you are to me.  Do yourself a favor - keep pretending you have me on "Ignore."  Don't pretend to occasionally take me off "Ignore" to attempt a clever riposte or a "bon mot."  In a battle of wits with me, you are unarmed.

 
"ancient post" - BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

how many times you have linked it.  You don't really have any original thoughts of your own, do you?  You like to speak by using the words of people who are smarter than you. its actually a good practice for someone like you.  What's ironic is that you like to use these words of mine IN an attack.  How stupid does that make YOU look?  

 
Can you spell "o-b-s-e-s-s-i-o-n-w-i-t-h-C-D-L?"  Bwahahahahaha

 
Knobby Hunter says you are in his Kgirl-CDL chat group.  How's THAT working out for you?  

Hey--Can you read?  I know that is very hard when are eyes are so blood shot form endless jerking off.  Papasan is not part of my chat group.  You may want to lay off the Vaseline and Viagra.  

Nice and hard;  give it a good hard whack.

Don't Connect two thoughts with but.  If you cant connect them with AND then you have no balls.

You need to re-set your language from K-English back to English.  

We know that its tough.  
You've got 3-4-5 or more wives or ex-wives.  
Hundreds of fake encounters with K-Girls.
Many, many, many Dozens of K-Girl girlfriends.  *    Sorry I couldn't resist a Trump description.

How many kids from the impregnated K-Girls?

You know, the ones that you bragged that you slipped off the condom when they weren't looking?  

Is you CDL- the NO information Viagra Shake drinker here.

When I posted this six days ago, I said in a "few more weeks" it will all be over in Afghanistan.  I SHOULD have said, "in a few more days. . . . . ."  it turns out that Joe was even more incompetent than anyone here thought.
