That sounds terrible. Maybe next time a republican is elected president you can get him to take over that country and make the feeding of Afghan children your top priority. They are always so grateful for outside help.
Nah, a dem will eventually get elected and frick it all up again.
Besides, you lot like seeing babies get killed. No one here buys your disgust over this story.

Believe it or not but they’ve been meeting with foreign governments in an attempt to develop relations and to get the economic sanctions lifted. They’ve been cut off from their money courtesy of the West.
Maybe, they should sell some of the billion dollar weapons of war that Biden left them? That would feed a lot of people.

I guess we should send aid. How many Billions do you want to send? 20? 100?
Maybe Boebert can draw up the resolution...
We should send 20 Million progressives to help out.

I hate this but lets be totally honest here. If the USA had never went there and the last 20 years never happened. Hundreds of thousands maybe a million of these people don't die. Because they likely never would have been born to begin with. Because since we went there we have been feeding the majority of that population. We did nothing but delay what would have happened a long time ago.

Sorry guys, y’all have gone full insane now.
Meanwhile, America continues to engage in nation-building. A policy that was (and is) doomed to failure from the start. From the beginning, I was opposed to our involvement in Afghanistan. Because ultimately it is the poor, the elderly, and the children who suffer the most from the insanity of war. It's hard enough for those poor folks to scrape out a living during peaceful periods, much more difficult, even impossible, during a nasty war.
From the foundation of our country, our Founding Fathers opposed this policy. They warned of the dangers of "foreign entanglements". For decades, our foreign policy crafters (in both parties) have ignored that warning.
As it applies to Afghanistan you would think we learned our lesson from our defeat in Viet Nam. But we didn't. Because the proponents of the Military-Industrial Complex plunged us right back into another nasty protracted regional conflict in Afghanistan.
In hindsight, maybe we can both agree, America's involvement in Afghanistan was an unmitigated disaster. The question from me is this. How do we keep this country from plunging into another nasty regional conflict?
Besides quit using our sons as cannon fodder for the UN. Plus lining the pockets of rich politicians with a DOD Weapons Assembly Plant in their districts.
In conclusion. Maybe you find it easy to turn your face away from images of starving babies. I don't.
Elections have consequences.

The Afghans chose this. They can fix it or not.

Sounds like the Talibans problem.
They are in charge. Let them handle it.

I won’t lie. Those kids are the thing that follows me the most from my time in Afghanistan. You would look at them and see all the potential your own kids have and know that they were screwed. Kids suffering is the only way to guarantee tears from me.

They need those weapons to fight isis. Which has seriously ramped up their attacks. Afghanistan is in a no-win scenario right now. The people are going to suffer dramatically.

Maybe the Afghan people shouldn't have spent the last twenty years hiding and supporting terrorists while we were trying to clean up their country. This is like black people complaining about crime but when the cops come around, they didn't see nothing.

Mush brain will send billions to the Taliban government in "humanitarian aid."
I say let the damn Chicoms and Russians feed them.
