No place but Afghanistan- 3 anniversary of death of 13 US servicemen.

Xiden has ordered all American flags destroyed at Embassy so it doesn’t look so bad on TV.

As if when thousands of innocents are dying how it looks on TV is important.

China and the Taliban Begin Their Romance
Beijing has its eyes set on using Afghanistan as a strategic corridor once U.S. troops are out of the way.

……

Meanwhile, the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, an economic and security grouping comprising China, India, Pakistan, Russia, and four Central Asian states, met last week with future Afghan stability at the top of their agenda.

Amid all of this regional angst, China is quietly attempting to secure its interests in post-U.S. Afghanistan. Beijing has reportedly been actively engaging with Kabul on construction of the Peshawar-Kabul motorway, which would connect Pakistan to Afghanistan and make Kabul a participant in China’s massive infrastructure and investment plan, the Belt and Road Initiative.

Bei Den Jo isn’t just selling us down the river, he’s selling everyone else down the river too. Hell, even Jimmy Carter was more rabidly anti communist and had a stiffer backbone.

And outing CIA agents in Doha while he’s at it.

I know some board members feel that politics has crept into the forum too much and I don't begrudge them those feelings. I wish we could depoliticize life. However, I feel the need to post this because it does need to be shared. The scale of this crisis is horrible. I just wish I could turn it around.

This is all on you Joe Biden! It needed to end but it didn't have to end like this!

This is what happens when the Democrats successfully cheat and put a demented old man in the Oval Office and those with the power to fix the mistake do NOTHING!

"Taliban starts collecting weapons from civilians, claims people can feel safe under its rule:"

On Monday, the Taliban started entering premises around the captured Afghan capital of Kabul and began seizing weapons. A representative of the militant group said that people no longer needed to keep weapons for safety, confirming that it had started collecting firearms.

I wonder if the taliban and the democrats consulted each other on plans.

His press conference when asked about Afghanistan.

That video pretty much sums up Uncle Joe's entire grasp on power. It is all a charade.

I guess you don’t need “F-15s and nuclear weapons” to take on the US government after all!

Another CNN "mostly peaceful" event.

75,000 committed warriors vs. 300,000 government funded stooges. Who wins? A lesson for the ages.

Biden has handled it badly, even worse than Obama and Trump. But remember, this disaster lies at the feet of George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and the neo-cons who started it.

[philip964]

In another way to look at it. A successful plan carried out perfectly.

Like the border crisis, it was a deliberate act according to a plan.

The plan must be to increase Dem voters in the US and to assist in the eventual takeover of Europe and America by minorities and to end Euro-American supremacy and Euro-American leadership in the world.

Millions of Middle East refugees will be created, for humanitarian reasons many of them will be brought to the US and many will travel to Europe increasing minority voter rolls.

Edit to add Tucker Carlson



How long before American troops will be withdrawn from South Korea to end America’s really longest war. We have had 70 years to train those soldiers. Time to test South Korea’s true resolve. After all Xiden has had only 6 months, he has 3 1/2 more years to go.

I would suspect Australia would be next.
