It is one of the ironies of history that the American intervention in Afghanistan after the 9/11 terrorist attacks was given the name Operation Enduring Freedom. So what should we call the shambolic American exit we are currently witnessing? Operation Evaporating Freedom? How about Operation Enduring Foul Up? There was certainly something enduring about the scenes in Kabul last week. Read Graham Greene's 1955 novel The Quiet American: 'We go and invade the country: the local tribes support us: we are victorious: but… [then] we made peace… and left our allies to be crucified and sawn in two.
Daily Fail is reporting that the UK may be ending flights out in just three days.

No Joe. This is not Saigon.
America supports their troops right now and weep for the sacrifices made by them. Sacrifices you are more than willing to throw away.
You are wrong, both morally and politically! WE SUPPORT OUR TROOPS!

My best friends brother was on the aircraft carrier Midway during the fall of Saigon. When we saw him after he got home he said what was most upsetting to him was having babies handed to him and others. He said he reached to help a mother and she said no...just save the baby. We were all pretty young then and so sure that something like that would never happen here.
I'm hoping that this tragedy shakes people out of their stupor long enough to realize that we are closer than ever, with this march to socialism, to our own enslavement. All of this nonsense has to stop and we must take back the freedom we have lost over the past year. Throw all the bums out. Biden (and his puppeteers) OWN every morsel of this debacle.

Are we allowed to criticize The Tapioca King on FB/Twits or is that a cancel violation?

Rousing Americans from their slumber?
What can we do about it?
Constitutionally and legally we are stuck with this mess.
We cant get rid of Biden either by impeachment or 25th. Amendment or even resignation without getting Harris.
We get Harris and where are we then?

Joe is not just going down in American history as the most inept president in history after 7 months, he's going down in flames. Think he had a bad day today ? Wait until Tuesday/ Mattressback ... You're up next.

Americans know what shoud be done, yet we are led by an alzheimers patient surrounded by deluded fools or worse. The Democrat Communist Party knew well before the election that Biden was senile. He could not fill a parking lot during the campaign with supporters in Pennsylvania. Trump drew 57 thousand. Biden and the Democrats cheated their way into high office and this Afghanistan disaster is the gut-wrenching result. The election was dishonesty on a national level seen usually in third world countries like Mexico and Belarus, or the latest Democrat Communist Party inspiration, Venezuela.

As far as I'm concerned most every man and woman, and their children, in Afghanistan could be killed by the taliban, I wouldn't much care. They chose to follow satan and he can have them...Even when seeing where islam/satan ultimately leads, they still embrace it and him.
islam is an enemy to the U.S., and the U.S. will in the end do the will of satan and invite them in in mass numbers.....islam is playing the long game. What's a few hundred thousand muslims dead in an islamic country if it will get even a much smaller number into a non-islamic country. Saw that many years ago, which is why I did not want us getting involved in this......Like the Patton character cried out in the movie Patton, "I read your book!"

The Daily Mail is as bad if not worse than the us media this from the article:
There, waiting in the wings, is the front-runner for the Republican nomination in 2024, the man whose Afghan exit strategy Joe Biden so foolishly embraced: Donald J. Trump.
WRONG!!!! He threw out Trump's exit strategy and also the threat to still use air power... The Daily Mail has been anti-Trump since day 1 and they continue to lie.

The chances for that baby are not that great here in America as long as the vegetable team is in charge. We are a few short events from falling our darn selves.
