Watch: Biden Throws Fuel On The Fire, Delivers Cynical Response To Botched Withdrawal
Biden blamed everyone but himself for his blunder in Afghanistan and even through Obama under the bus.
Biden made note that he opposed Obama’s troop surge in 2009. Biden then blamed President Trump for the debacle we’ve witness take place in Kabul.

Biden blamed the developments in the past week on the Afghan government and security forces.

The problem with Biden’s speech is that Americans are not upset about withdrawing from the country, they are upset at the way the Biden administration has done it.
You know it’s bad when the New York Times is furious…
Biden has painted this as a binary – stay or go – while only briefly addressing the fact that the images coming out of Kabul reflect people who weren’t evacuated months earlier.

Biden can claim what he wants the truth is he did nothing.
Officials say the military for weeks had been telling the White House that they were ready to do more, in terms of basing and flights from evacuating Afghans, but a decision didn’t come until it was too late.

Afghanistan was destined to fall however the Biden administration did nothing to get the refugees and United States personal out efficiently. The White House should have been vetting and evacuating refugees weeks ago, after all they were the ones that set the deadline.
Below are images and video showing the dire situation Biden caused.

At one point a massive group of people broke the permiter and tried to hop aboard a C-17. An Apache gunship used their rotor wash to clear the crowd. At least two people died when they fell off the landing gear.

The Taliban has taken over the civilian area of the airport however United States soldiers have formed a perimeter.
This only gets worse the longer it goes. Sooner or later some mid-level chucklehead Taliban commander will decide to make a name for himself by being the guy who attacked the infidels at the airport https://t.co/uApKIw05q1

Meanwhile the press was up to their old tricks calling the Taliban’s takeover “relatively peaceful.”
NBC News’ @aliarouzi on the Taliban taking over Afghanistan, renaming it “The Islamic Emirate”:
“It’s been a relatively peaceful, if you like, process. They haven’t had to fire a lot of shots … They’re not in any sort of clashes with U.S. personnel” pic.twitter.com/xgPYCjTfa4

CNN also thought it was a good idea to air Taliban propaganda…
Taliban allows CNN as this is immense propaganda value for them
– Shows them in victory
– Even Western women must wear hijab in Afghanistan now
This isn’t reporting, it’s doing the enemy’s bidding.
