re: What the reality of life in Afghanistan is today for an Afghan Christian

How many fricking times do you have to be told it's not that we left, but how we left?

All I’m seeing written here is that we should have not actually left. Some right wingers talk about how well things were going with a smaller deployment and others are talking about air support. Neither is “leaving.”

Some talk about “sudden,” but the objective truth is that Trump signed a deal to turn the country over to the Taliban in May. It’s August. Sounds like we held off a little longer.

And if you dispute what Trump actually did, if he wasn’t turning the country over to the Taliban, why the hell did he sign the deal DIRECTLY WITH THE TALIBAN! He didn’t sign the deal with the Afghan government or its security force leader. He signed the deal with the Taliban. Trump acknowledged the Taliban as the party otherwise in control of the country.
