I trust Generals McKenzie and Votel's opinions more than General Woke's.
The United States is not safer following the pullout of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, and President Donald Trump's and President Joe Biden's determination to withdraw all U.S. forces from there led to Kabul's fall, according to the last commanders to oversee a U.S. military presence in Afghanistan and the Middle East.

Retired General Frank McKenzie, the head of U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) from 2019-2022, and retired General Joseph Votel, the head of CENTCOM from 2016-2019, spoke exclusively to VOA on Monday about the U.S. and NATO's nearly 20-year war in Afghanistan.

"I do not believe we are safer as a result of our withdrawal from Afghanistan," McKenzie, who advised American presidents to keep a minimum of 2,500 U.S. troops in the country, told VOA.

"There's a lot that we don't know about the organizations, the terrorist organizations that are left on the ground," Votel added. "I don't think we're more stable or more safe. I think Afghanistan is more unstable, and as a result, that this region is more unstable."

As of 2015, CENTCOM forces were deployed primarily in Afghanistan under the auspices of Operation Freedom's Sentinel,

Would you rather DeSantis be the nominee?…and probable President based upon the odds every free-for-all election this century?

The downside of a two-party system is that the election choice is based upon the nominee from each party. Biden may not even live out this term much less a second one. Even the Democrats don’t want him to run. If it’s Biden and any Republican not Trump, who do you think would win?

I’d rather her over Meatball Ron. Biden is going to run, and likely win, but he is to old.

As opposed to Trump, yes… but GWB lied us into a war that killed over 4000 American hero’s.

And for that he should be shot. I bet GWB never travels overseas for fear of being arrested. ;)
Can't say Brandon fucked up that bad but his Afghanistan bug out was as bad as could be done in peace time.

I’ll bet cash, 12B bet or JPP donation that Biden won’t beat anyone but Trump…and I’ll also bet Trump won’t win the nomination.

Basically the Iraq war was a mistake but Saddam did try to kill GB senior when he was President and he violated the cease fire agreement. So GWB was within his legal rights to take Saddam out. Plus Saddam was afraid of Iran and wanted them to think he had WMD so he bluffed He didn't expect that the US would go in without the UN . He thought Russia and Germany would stop the US.

He did not drag his feet. He followed the advice of military leaders. I'm not the one whining about Biden.

Holy fuck, how times does it have be pointed out that the heavy lifting was done by the Afghans. In fact not Americans had died in combat for several years. AQ are already plotting the next atrocity even now, next time they will have cruise missiles.

I suspect Nimrata Haley remembers how much freak out Trumppers had about Barak Hussein, Obama’s name.

And remember how much shit they gave him because for a period of his life he changed it to Barry.

I don’t know. Nikki might be the best ticket the Republicans have to dig themselves out of the hole Trump dug for them. I’d vote for her over Ron or Biden. If it’s Ron, I’d vote Libertarian again.

Do you realize you are provoking bigotry in the name of politics just like the Republicans?
 
Was slavery systemic in America pre-Civil war?

Yes.

Was there slavery in all of America?
