Clearspira is just being spiteful of the left because they make him feel like a shitty person he actually is and that upsets him.

A reminder that, it was the Trump administration who made that deal with the Taliban to begin with, so Trump should share the blame of the situation along with Biden.

Also, let's be honest. A huge number of the far right who are crying out about Kabul wouldn't give that much of a sh** about Afghan civilians dying if this happened during Trump's tenure.

The only shitty person I see is Makeshift Python, and I'd like to add, I may not hate Fuzzy Necomancer, but I sure do hate Makeshift Python. And wow, the giant, flaming, asshole douchebag of a man was banned once, wow, what are the ODDS? Who would have seen that coming?

Um, okay. Kind of weird for you to bring me into something that is just between you and Makeshift Python. o.0

You said you didn't hate me. I was observing that from the other day.

So apparently nobody including the Biden administration is really surprised about the taliban advancement.

I’m curious if a more expedient withdrawal would have given more time to the Afghan government and less to the taliban, but I also would think that they could have came to an agreement between states for a more considerate withdrawal.

Yeah but that was in a completely different thread and I do not see how it is germane to this exchange.

As for the subject at hand, I just hope we hurry up with getting citizenship for our Afghan allies.

There was an agreement with Trump. Hindsight 20/20 I highly doubt the Taliban would have held.

Trump supporters will also point out that Biden disbanded the Trump appointed committee that would have oversaw such a thing though.
I got nothing to say here.
