Asleep at the wheel... The War on Terror
has ended as it began on 9/11,
20 years ago - with bodies falling
from the sky, the Taliban cheering
in Kabul and mighty America
humbled. And for that, Joe Biden
should hang his head in shame

This is America’s darkest hour since September 11, 2001. Just weeks before the 20th anniversary of the devastating terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, the U.S. has been humiliated in the eyes of the world.For once, the fiercely partisan domestic media is united in condemnation of President Joe Biden’s surrender to the Taliban.Even Fox News and CNN, normally diametric political opposites, are singing from the same hymn sheet.Americans awoke yesterday to television pictures of desperate refugees falling to their deaths from departing U.S. transport aircraft. It was a chilling echo

Joe will put out the big Bush-style aircraft carrier MISSION ACCOMPLISHED sign on the White House lit up at night in rainbow colors along with a black lives matter flag, and an AL Qaeda flag.

Sadly, in Taiwan today premier Su Tseng-chang found it necessary to assure his people that even if the U.S. abandoned them, Taiwan would not collapse like Afghanistan. That is the first international reverberation expressing a loss of confidence in being a friend of the United States. It will not be the last.

The Daily Mail is a terrible British rag sheet about 20 steps below The National Inquirer for journalistic integrity. They absolutely hated President Trump and printed lie after lie about him as "information by anonymous sources". They loved biden when he was running against President Trump.
For them to attack not-my-president Lyin' Joe biden so viciously, you know how bad he has messed up.
Seriously, this makes Jimmy Carter look like a elder statesman, and Clinton's aspirin factory attack look like a major military strategy!!!

The Daily Mail does the jobs Americans won’t do.
The people falling off planes is the bookend to Dubya Bush’s war. Biden is a moron advised by White Rage Milley and Lloyd Amin so this disorganized retreat is all he could do.
There is a malaise spreading over our homeland.

Trump did a great job by pulling out of the Paris Climate Agreement establishing once again America’s sovereignty on the world stage. Now with sleepy Joe at the wheel, we’ve become the laughing stock of the world. My preference is that when we yell U S A, we leave other countries shaking in their boots.

Obama plays a big part in this. In 2014, Obama released five commanders from Gitmo in exchange for an American deserter. Obama assured the public that these animals would not go back into fighting. Well, Obama lied and all five did. This is the result of the five animals and the Obama/Biden ticket.

It is just the end of the beginning of the war on terror. Next comes even more terror and war.

Make NO mistake the war on "terror" lives on and may very well be focused on the target it was intended for from day 1. I'm well on my way to losing any reluctance to see this all as a manufactured political means to tear down American liberty ushering in the NWO communists. And we know the target all too well.

The real shame is the number of service men and women killed and maimed for nothing. We had no business being in Afghanistan. It was a business adventure for military companies. If we had nuked the whole country, it would have still looked the same as it does now, except there would be fewer terrorists.

Afghanistan fell because it's "freedom-loving" population did nothing to prevent the Taliban from asserting its "authority" as Americans ended their 20 year attempt to create a reformed Afghan society, including a dedicated Afghan security force that proved feckless in the face of the battle. The US failed to provide a George Washington to follow. The US failed to import courage and steadfastness with the trillions spent and blood spilled. The Afghans failed to rise to the best opportunity ever given them to rise above their squalid bronze age situation. No, the rug merchants and kebob shop shills did what they've always done. America owes our "ally" nothing.

Sometimes the only place we can find news about Biden's dealings is in a foreign paper.
