What a coincidence that Obama thought ISIS was the JV team and Biden thought the American armed and trained Afghan army of 300,000 could defeat the 75,000 strong Taliban.
Not to mention the same incompetents in our intelligence and military told Obama that Putin wouldn't invade Ukraine.
We are in the most intelligent and moral of hands. God help us!
There have been rumblings of a power struggle between Harris and Jill in the WH, and I have to wonder if this won't ultimately force Biden out sooner rather than later. He's never had the support of the radical wing of the party, and the message from this Administration has always been that somehow the "adults" were back in charge of things. It was a message designed to appeal to the managerial class, the upper-middle class westerners who wanted things to go back to the way they were prior to 2016, with the insane belief that somehow we'd be "respected" on the world stage again. Instead they're watching the US be humiliated on the world stage. People will stand a whole lot, but they won't tolerate public embarrassment.
The best move might be for Joe to announce that he is resigning due to health issues, have friendly media run a few stories about how those health problems undermined his ability to make decisions in a timely manner, and let him be the scapegoat while proclaiming that Harris will now fix everything.
Six Months Under Biden
Well Joe camped out in his basement and they called it a winning campaign
With his squintin’ and a stutter people thinkin’ he’s a little insane
Got a son that’s hooked on the crack
But he’ll never go to jail that’s a fact
Six months under Biden and I don’t think it’ll end all right
We got Harris in the bullpen and if that don’t give you a fright
If a cackle was some spackle she could plaster every wall in sight
They spendin’ money like it’s growin’ on trees
Got me feelin’ like I’m weak in the knees
Six months under Biden and I don’t think it’ll end all right
I was afraid this all would happen on Trump's watch. He started the ball rolling, just by getting normally support-the-troops Republicans to admit they were tired and disgusted with this war.
But somehow Biden ends up doing the deed. What a dirty trick. Goddamn Trump!
Another collosal failure of our "intelligence" "services" who are much too busy serving as political messaging and action arms of the democratical party to do anything productive.
Just today, those jackasses have added to their astonishing history of incompetence and endless litany of missed estimates by "officially" modifying their estimate of how long it would take the Taliban to take large swaths of the country from 80 days to......(drumroll)....72 hours.
It was John Le Carre himself who guessed that about 98% of all "intelligence" work products were simply made up! (See the movies "Our Man in Havana" and "The Tailir of Panama" for cinematic illustrations of this truism.
And then picture rooms full of Malcolm Nances and General Millie Vanillis and Brennans and Clappers and Comeys and the entire CNN and MSNBC lineup of foreign policy and strategy "experts" and you too will find yourself thinking: how were these morons not further off in their already grotesquely wrong "estimates"?
Two people who know Joe best said:
Barak Obama: "never underestimate Joe's ability to Eff things up."
Obama Sec Def Robert Gates: Biden "has been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades."
If anything, Joe has deteriorated since those assessments were made. There should be no surprises regarding Joe Biden's mental acuity or leadership ability. He's an old man who can't get out a whole sentence without forgetting what he wanted to say. All our enemies know this. We're in for a tough slog over the next 3 years. Got help us.
That video basically tells you how stupid Joe Biden really is. An honest or at least mentally competent person would have simply said that the Afghan government has all the tools it needs to defeat the Taliban, and that all they need to demonstrate is that they have the will to do so, but that it is up to them.
We are, to quote someone in a movie somewhere "in a world of hurt". Here's the thing: the shit is just starting to hit the fan. We have not see anything yet.
I feel badly for the people of Haiti, but we are in no position to help anyone right now.
They say the left can't meme.
Biden Must Resign "after the end of his 2nd term"?
So when his 2nd term ends, he does not plan on giving up the Presidency? No need for conducting an election in 2028?
I’d give Ripley a thumbs up if he said, “at the end of his term,” but it’s so ridiculous to think Biden will have a second term that it ruins the effect.
Biden has an insurance policy against a forced resignation or removal under the 25th Amendment. I give you the Kamala Harris Insurance Company. Joe is bad--but the alternative is worse.
I am depressed. Between the quake in Haiti and this, I feel as if I am stuck in some time warp that sends one endlessly through the same sequence of disasters, each time switching to an parallel universe so that things vary just a bit.
I had friends who were refugees from Vietnam and Korea when I was younger. They were fine people who had horrible stories of woe, and I am sick at what will happen to so many Afghanis. This is terrible, this is just so wrong.
Was it only four days ago that we were told that the Taliban might — might! — take Kabul in 90 days. Now we learn Kabul might fall in as little as 72 hours and our remaining nationals, much less local Afghanis who supported us, are at risk of losing their lives. Maybe if the CIA and National Security Council staff had tried to build up intelligence assets in the Middle East and in Afghanistan and in a lot of other places whose names end in “stan” instead of spending their resources for four years trying to force out or at least resist Donald Trump, maybe we’d be able to formulate realistic exit plans? Just sayin’
Biden is not the sharpest tack in the bulletin board, but he has a special knack for making things worse by putting people even less competent than himself in charge of agencies that are already screwed up. The results speak for themselves.
I am not particularly interested in Twitter hashtags or their trends. The real world is more interesting to me. I was struck by the previous comment. It said there were 75,000 Taliban fighters. Is this correct? I have seen that number before. So, I consulted the Delphic oracle, google search. Actually I did not at first. I used another search engine. Then I went back to google. Here is what I saw at the top
As the Taliban carry out an almost uninterrupted sweep of the country, their strength has been in question. Official estimates have long sat at somewhere between 50,000 to 100,000 fighters. Now that number is even murkier as international forces and their intelligence capabilities withdraw.7 hours ago
The last sentence is rather intriguing. Why would an estimate become murkier because forces and intelligence capabilities withdraw? I could go on about this, but I won't.
My first search landed this article in Foreign Policy magazine.
https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/07/28/afghanistan-taliban-stop-assuming-win/
What is interesting about the article is not how wrong it is in hindsight, but how it actually provides the information about why things turned out as they did.
This is just a taste:
Sadat admitted, however, that U.S. air support could prove the difference in the conflict. “We believe we will continue to get American air support through the U.S.’s Over the Horizon program, but the details are sketchy,” Sadat added, referencing a passing remark by Gen. Kenneth McKenzie, the head of U.S. Central Command, that seemed to suggest continued support to Afghan forces. U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, however, has said the U.S. military’s support would be on counterterrorism operations against al Qaeda and the Islamic State.
LGBTR politics.
Let's Get Biden To Resign.
The collective left: "eat shit, America/ world"
There is a non-zero chance that Biden concludes a live press brief by barking “Trump won. I quit!”
What, no life long Republican going to make the conservative case that the top video isn't Joe Biden demonstrating that he has shit for his brains?
The only thing that would have made this video more hilarious is if Joe Biden referred to the Taliban as the JV team.
@MaxedOutMama, Tropical Storm Grace is expected to strengthen to hurricane status and hit Haiti.
If the US Administration is willing to allow so many illegal immigrants from the south - over 200,000 in July I read - surely they should offer asylum to the Afghans they've left in the lurch. it's not wrong that the US is leaving. It is wrong that they're leaving their allies in the lurch.
Max—thanks for that long quote. I quit reading news articles at the word “could” because of Covid. It’s striking that if you changed the players to Fauci et al. And the topic to Covid, the article reads largely the same. I wouldn’t have seen it but for that.
This is a huge failure of our leadership on all fronts, a failure of journalism and a failure of us as a people.
I’m sick that we have abandoned people who helped us.
I have no idea how you motivate a military after this. My son is newly commissioned in the Navy and I don’t know what his career will look like. Obviously I’m feeling bleak this morning—definitely need to spend some time in church today.
Just remember, the guy abandoning Afghanistan opposed helping refugees from South Vietnam get U.S. asylum, saying that the U.S. had “no obligation, moral or otherwise, to evacuate foreign nationals,”
Look. Sometimes the JVs are really good, but that isn't really the issue. The issue is whether the women and girls of Afghanistan are going to be able to use their cell phones in school. It's like Cornpop used to tell Joe all the time: Joe is the best friend a woman ever had. And the Taliban--are they coming to put y'all back in chains? Come on, man! It's not like they are Republicans!
Sunday news shows: will there be the usual tongue baths or will the talking heads grasp the enormity of the situation?
Biden and Whoever-Is-Really-Charge (WIRE) has allowed the investigating and purging of the US Army because B-WIRE intelligence shows that there is in the US on the right and in the Army an opposition more dangerous than ISIS or Muslim terrorism. Meanwhile the Taliban was strong enough to take over Afghanistan in a few weeks but Biden's intelligence didn't know that. Naturally. The B-WIRE regime "knew" a lie and the lie prevented it from knowing the truth. This is why authoritarian regimes don't work. This is why we need, actually need, freedom of speech and freedom of the press in order to flourish.
B-WIRE also knows the public schools are fine.
People. There will be NO mass evacuation of Afghans. It's a landlocked and remote place, with anywhere from 30 to 40 MILLION people. It's absurd even to contemplate some sort of large-scale rescue. The Vietnamese were less numerous, more Westernized, and could take to the sea.
Those that would escape will have to head out on foot and depend on the kindness of their Muslim neighbors, who bear the moral responsibility to care for their co-religionists.
IOW, we can look forward to yet more failure and chaos among the detritus of Islam, which has failed as faith, culture, and civilization.
