20 Years, over 1 Trillion Dollars spent in training the military and they were unwilling to fight their own fight? Leaders of corrupt countries now enjoy themselves and expect the US and the West to fight their fights for them. One of those lazy corrupt leaders was recently asking the US to relocate Africa Command Headquarters to his country so he and his cohorts can relax and enjoy billions of naira of allowances while US fights their wars for them, and defense funds continue to be diverted by the commanders into private housing projects in major cities home and abroad.

Biden did the right thing. Protecting US interests was the goal, not running defense for corrupt nations while many Americans need their government's help. It's time to start holding our leaders accountable.

FYI It was Trump who signed an executive order for American troops to leave Afghan in January 2021

It was Trump who started the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan,Biden only followed through.

You can't be fighting for people who aren't in support of democracy. The entire Afghanistan political and security structure are behind the Talibans for Islamic nation but were just pretending to play along.

The moment US pulled out their troops,the Talibans walked into the nation's seat of power unchallenged. That means,it was just the US and the Afghan President that were fighting the terrorist,the rest want Sharia rule

US Presidents always do what's in the interest of the American people. Why is that important to this discussion by the way?
