They deserve equal credit for a relatively peaceful exit, though 13 is a tragic number and deserves mourning.

I dont know why biden gets credit for a peaceful exit during trump and a complete failure of one under biden but I have a feeling youre really biting your nails about 2024 so Ill allow it.

2022 will be worse. goodie, another divided government. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

On the bright side, the insane yelling some rightwads are doing atm dampens that likely outcome.

[Jibartik]

Even so, the right wads right now are grinding their teeth holding back even more I promise you just wait till the floogates open when the trumpet comes back.

A divided government is good. That's the whole point; avoiding one-party rule. It's not *ideal* but it's the best system yet divised. Utopia is never going to happen, all we can do is get closer. Biden sucks shit, so he will likely be voted out, as he should be.

Just remember they don't want Americans to have guns, body armor or cheap fuel. Or freedom. Or encrypted privately owned comms. Or airplanes. Or missiles. Or Blackhawks thatve been in service since Vietnam either.

Or laser, radar, infrared guidance etc.

They deliberately nerfe ur cellphones so you can't defend yourself from them or load up your own ogg vorbis files to listen to while you defend yourself from them.

The only way to win is to join them in order to get the military on our side and have the bases. Yet once you do that you also lose your independence and become them. Soldiers are kept on just as short if not shorter leashes.

Then we could refuse to work, refuse to transfer feuel. For them. Try to force them to shut down bases and scrap the navy.

And then we'd be at the mercy of the UN. Which are useless and worse.

This is Afghanistan.

A mirror of the U S.

Even if things get really bad Jeff bezos gates Koch mercer soros epstien murdoch can just use cheaply sourced kazahk and Siberian aluminum and steal made in Russia with a few soft bribes to putins robot form to put you back down and into your place.

Bitching about Afghanistan and gas prices and obamacare and regereon on p99 forums.

Hi CIA, NSA, Carnivore. Gang stalkers. And non existent shell companies. The VA won't pay for an xray. They can microchip and poison u with seretogenic drugs tho. So you become another news at 11 casualty.

Stay safe kids. Stay healthy. Stay strong. Stay outa Walmart and the supermart as much as u can. Go down and pay the Amish for what is in season even if it costs more money. It costs less in sin, health, braincells and servitude to lucifer.

Would it follow, then, that Joe Manchin III is heckin' cute and valid? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It wouldn't be a cult of personality if conservatives like Jib could give credit to anyone but their glorious former president.

They both deserve blame for what is going to happen to the citizens of afghanistan. There are 18 year old afghan girls who have never known what it's like to live under the taliban, who are about to find out what sex slavery means. It only took a presence of about 2500 US troops to keep the country relatively stable, leaving was a mistake. It made our country less safe (terrorists can plan terrorisms easily now) and it certainly made afghanistan less safe. And it empowered countries like china who have no scruples and are willing to bro down with the taliban. There is absolutely no strategic justification for leaving, not to mention the manner in which we left, not to mention the 80 billion dollars of military equipment we LEFT BEHIND. Like whaaaaaaat the fuck??

All on Biden

Anyone who supports or voted for Biden deserves to be blamed as well

Need gear to interdict terrorist activity.

Like it or not, the Taliban are our security partners now like Saudi Arabia. Ick.

"Ick" is right. I trust them like I trust a scorpion.
