The article does highlight some positives: Ward said those out on the street are "mainly" Taliban, and that there are notably "far fewer women" roaming about than normal. In fact, Ward said she herself was asked to step back. "They've just told me to stand to the side because I'm a woman." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,068 Posted August 16, 2021 Does anyone have troop numbers in Afghanistan over the years/administration? While Trump didn't pull US completely out he definitely oversaw a draw down. Our company maintained 3 sites in country for data collection for well over a decade. That came to an end in 2019/2020 as the military sites they were located on and supported packed up (and was not covid related) . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If it was just a matter of sending the word to pull out then Biden could have done it a month into his presidency. Joe's words were Obama picked him as VP because of his foreign policy and security record. Kamala stated she had a key role in pulling troops out of Afghanistan. So what you are implying is Joe wasnt trusted with foreign policy at a younger age as VP nor now when he is POTUS? Good to know. Instead he got fumbled up with what advisors told him and just rolled the dice now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MTSkiBum 1,595 Posted August 16, 2021 I really hated the war in Afghanistan, one of the stupidest moves by America in the last 50 years. Biden is getting killed in the media, i am glad he stood up and took one for the team. I wish Obama, Bush, or Trump would have had the balls to do it. I have been negative about the Afghan war going back 10+ years. This is no flip/flopping on my part. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
