IjeBos:I see. Ask Gilani, the clown u Installed as Afghan president, he won’t agree wit ur WE DID WOT WE CAME TO DO brag. Ur regime change agenda was flushed down the drain with plenty American service men’s blood. Be deceiving urself and feeding fat on a diet of lies from western media. If u tell me though, dat ur mission was to steal money and line ur pockets with a significant portion of the trillion USD rumored to have been expended on the war, den I may agree wit u. Men like Biden and Obama wit Bush family made millions and are not complaining. As for weapons, which of those US helicopters did the Taliban use to DEFEAT the 250thousand US military men Obama sent to Afghanistan? U gave Afghan weapons? Was it for free? Are the Talibans no more Afghans? Is it not national property? U probably want to pack dem wit u, like u helped Gilani flee wit all the wealth of Afghanistan packed in a chopper which u intend to help him launder in ur banks. U be mumu |

IjeBos: I'm confused? Lol. Okay, let me do a quick recap. You said the Afghan president fled and the Afghan army disintegrated without fighting for their country. And I said those are not really the issues as it relates to this discussion. This whole debacle is as a result of the poor foresight of the US government (Trump and Biden, but since Biden is the current POTUS, the buck stops at his table, as the Americans will say). Don't be deceived. There have always been reports that the Afghan military can't stand the Taliban. Infact, some reports indicated the Afghan military were arming the Talibans. For example, the US Congress created SIGAR – the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction since 2008 has continually released report on Afghanistan. There are several reports indicating that the Afghan military is not disciplined enough to withstand the Taliban advances. Only a government without foresight will put it's 100% hope on the Afghan military. Actually, most of your write up is meaningless though. I have never said Trump has no part in this show of shame. All your write up about the timeline of events and Trump's role is quite meaningless. During Biden's speech he blamed Trump (and everyone else). How come Biden followed through with Trump's plan and still you stand there to blame him? I'm not a fan of Trump, but please don't tell me he was boxed in because of the deal Trump made with the Taliban. If he was really boxed in, then he should have completed the withdrawal in May which was the agreement. Biden is the C-in-C and just as he has rightly said, the buck stops at his table. Trump is no longer president. This is what I think he should have done. With the Taliban continuing to attack Afghan forces and provinces in violation of the agreement they had with the Trump adm, he would have stopped the US military pull out (and even send more military to Afghan). No one would have blamed him because the Talibans were not keeping with their side of the bargain. With a strong military presence, evacuation of people and equipments would have been done more orderly and safely. Actually, what has compounded Biden's problems is what he has said with his mouth. He said helicopter will not be used to evacuate US embassy officials in Kabul as was done in Saigon. He said the Taliban can't overrun the country. He said the Afghan military can stand and fight. All of these turned out to be false. If all of these statements were because of assurances given to him by his intelligence officials, then we need to start scrutinizing all of his appointments. The white house have admitted that "a fair amount of weapons have fallen into the hands of the Taliban". If you don't know that China has always bought US weapons from countries and groups for the purpose of studying American military technology, then you are not as knowledgeable as you are fronting! |

Krismas: Oga, understand an argument before you jump in. Someone else said he was disappointed with the way the Afghanistan president fled the country and the Afghan military fell. I replied by telling him that those are not the major issues. In America, there have always been reports indicating that the Taliban can over run the Afghan military. Infact, some reports indicated that the Afghanistan military were arming the Taliban. For Biden to put His hope that the Afghanistan military can stand to defend the country and that the Taliban can't take over run the whole of Afghanistan is funny. Americans are waiting to hear where he got those information/intelligence from. This is what I think Biden should have done. With the Taliban continuing to attack Afghan forces and provinces in violation of the agreement they had with the Trump adm, he would have stopped the US military pull out (and even send more military to Afghan). No one would have blamed him because the Talibans were not keeping with their side of the bargain. With a strong military presence, evacuation of people and equipments would have been done more orderly and safely and finally the military pull out. As for the the US military equipments falling into the Taliban hands, the fear is more of China and Russia (especially China) buying those equipment from the Taliban to study US military technology. |
Re: Biden’s Taliban Speech Branded ‘one Of The Most Shameful In US History’(Pix) by Nobody: 8:19am On Aug 18, 2021 |
ibuildstuff: Yes, I know. But with massive gain of territory by the Taliban and the continual defeat of the Afghan military, it would have been wise to halt more military pull out. This is what I think he should have done. With the Taliban continuing to attack Afghan forces and provinces in violation of the agreement they had with the Trump adm, Biden would have stopped the US military pull out (and even send more military to Afghan). No one would have blamed him because the Talibans were not keeping with their side of the bargain. With a strong military presence, evacuation of people and equipments would have been done more orderly and safely before the military finally leaves. And his greatest undoing is the words he has spoken. He said Afghanistan military can stand and fight to defend their country. He said helicopters will not be used to evacuate US embassy officials in Kabul (as it happened in Vietnam). He said the Taliban can't overun the whole country. Al these have happened and Americans are wondering where he got all these intelligence from. Unfortunately, he is president and the buck stops at his table, even though he may have been given assurances by his officals. |

Greyworld: It's true. I just want to troll Democrats small. Afghans no want fight for their Freedom even with the presence of Americans a rare opportunity others are looking for. Imagine if the Americans come down to Nigeria to fight the Jihadits...most of us will join the military sharp sharp cos we are now under the technical know how of the Americans. But Afghans were hiding the Talibans and making mockery of the Americans. It serves them right. What a coward race. |

Meninmen: Trump's agreement with the Taliban did not cover Afghan Forces, it was a ceasefire between the US Forces and the Taliban. How then were the US Forces going to break the ceasefire and still ensure an orderly pullout? If they had broken the ceasefire how will they have been able to pullout at all? |

Meninmen:First, why do u tink there was a need for an AGREEMENT? Taliban did not initiate it Trump did. The obvious was America was losing on all its said military objectives. I happened to have watched a live battle scene in Afghanistan on Press TV. They were killing American troops so cheaply. U wudnt see dat on CNN. So, the Taliban need not keep their side of any agreement they didn’t initiate. And no amount of American soldiers wud have mattered. U are the one yet to understand the real truth about the Afghan war, not I. And by the way, China does not need to buy any equipment b4 they understand its functionalities. U free to join the west in castigating Chinese technology as stolen or under par. |

It was when the situation was getting out of hand he had to send in more troops into Afghanistan for reinforcements and safe evacuation. I agree with you. Biden is not willing to continue to fight in Afghanistan. It makes sense though. And I feel Trump (consciously or unconsciously) set a banana peel for Biden |

Krismas: What were the objectives of the US when they entered Afghanistan? It was simply to defeat Al-Qaeda and prevent attack on US soil from these countries they invaded after 9/11 and they have met that objective. Throughout the years they were in Afghanistan, Al-Qaeda was seriously degraded and no known attack my Jihadists on US soil. America were already tired of the war. They were already having war fatigue. For 20 years? They have tried. They need to come home (only the manner of the pull out that is not too pleasant). So because you didn't initiate an agreement, you are not obliged to keep an agreement you signed with your own hands? Funny human being. This is the reason some Americans are after Biden. Since they were not keeping to their own side of a signed agreement, you have every justifiable right to attack them with whatever you have. But now, it seems the Taliban pursued the US out of Afghanistan (even if the US had planned to leave initially). This is a PR Victory for the Taliban and Countries like Iran who want the US to leave the entire middle East. As for China, go read how and why their steatlh fighter jets have close resemblance to that of the US. There are documented cases of China stealing or attempting to steal US military technology. Go educate yourself on that! 1 Like |
