Yes it is. It should tell you who to listen to and who not to. The "foreign policy" establishment in this country was wrong about Iraq. They were wrong about Libya. They were wrong about Afghanistan. We shouldn't listen to a word they tell us.
The biggest “I told you so” on the face of the earth can’t even have a twitter account. While I think there’s some value in the “I told you so[s]” I don’t think it’s enough to make a real difference.

NEW: Biden admin has curtailed the number of flights to the US for Afghans who worked alongside the US as it prioritizes the evacuation of American personnel from the country, three sources familiar with the situation told CNN.
So you think they should not prioritize US citizens over Afghans?

Because the Afghans threw down their arms quicker than the French in WW2.

What’s about to happen to them is terrifying. I don’t have the correct answer since we should have withdrawn them weeks ago, but the betrayal to them is sickening.

this is a disgrace and how weve turned our backs on people who have been our allies for 20 years and have basically given them horrible death sentences and have sold their wives and daughters basically into slavery is awful
our arrogance caused a massive failure and people in the area are going to feel the brunt of it and i wouldnt be shocked to see another major terrorist attack on our country at some point in time in the next decade

I want you to comprehend this. A Guantanamo Bay inmate released by Obama now runs Afghanistan thanks to Joe Biden. How anyone, even the staunchest Democrat, can defend this today is incomprehensible

Tell that to the Afghans we just betrayed and abandoned. I am sure they will love your nuanced observations.

There ain’t no need for any “whatabouts”.
Complete abject failure on part of this administration is in plain sight for anyone in the world with open eyes to see.

Oh don't worry, China is seeing rather clearly right now.
