    Taliban freed ISIS and Al Qaeda fighters.

    The Taliban and ISIS are regional enemies who have ongoing internal conflict, so the reasons for the release are likely not to free them due to victory, but probably more due to judicial restructuring - the Taliban does not believe in western judicial law meaning they likely will either give all prisoners a new trial under Islamic law or simply release them w/o actual support due to intra-faith trust until they find them to have violated their own laws. It’s highly doubtful they’re simply freeing them with the intention of returning them given that many of these would have literally been their enemies themselves

    Optics look bad. Letting the taliban takeover gonna basically admit we wasted trillions + let americans die.

    Optics are terrible because we never should have been there in the first place for this long, and in reality it was going to look bad no matter what, because the entire operation was and always has been a failure built on lies and sunk cost. The alternative was essentially staying there forever, otherwise it was more a matter of which President was going to be the one to go through and look bad doing it, this was never going to be clean because the situation was and always been a disaster - our military and intelligence never actually planned for a pullout between basically 4 completely different administrations now. Biden should have handled it differently still, sure, but let’s not act like the primary blame here is not on our media and political classes for how they’ve distilled this dishonestly

    Can't find that quote on faz website or any other news outlet in Germany. Maybe behind a paywall. Idk.
    German government announced in their press meeting that they get ready to get out 10.000 afghans who helped the army or Ngo's asap. However guess it's already to late anyways. Sadly. Our Gov f***ed it up already last month, when they refused to ease up the visa procedure for those afghans.

    Also sad for the afghan refugees, because they will soon experience that the castle Europe, like the US, won't give a f*** about them.

    Saw some afghans holding on to the flying plane and falling to their death. Hard to watch.

    Prayers to the women and children even though prayers do nothing

    I saw one fall and then I wondered how many held on to that plane. I hope they landed safely.

    I'm not sure where you get this I'm on trumps cock nonsense unless you selectively ignore my posts or have some form of mental instability which forces you to make moronic statements about me. Why don't you read every one of my posts in this thread before you quote me again.
