Depicting the desperation to evacuate as many people as possible from #Afghanistan, the US military aircraft C-17 RCH 871 takes off, evacuating about 800 people from #Kabul.

That may very well be the best and the worst flight those folks have ever been on.

Bingo.

Not only a shitty execution on withdrawal, but one of the most incredible displays of non-leadership at such a critical point presented by a US president ever.

You implied it would be Trump's fault that terrorists came across the border due to Biden letting anyone and everyone in
Saying Trump would some responsibility doesn't imply no one else does

You keep arguing this thing that I never argued against... Why?

I'm done going in circles with you though.
Probably for the best for you, you're doing w things right now: arguing with me about something I never said and saying I implied something not only that I didn't imply but have many posts in this thread saying the complete opposite. So yea, it's a good time for you to check out, I agree.

Far less than flying the stars and stripes. They probably don't even know what the pride flag looks like.


What exactly is the point of bringing the official flag of the US into a discussion about the pride flag? Are you now advocating for the US flag to not be displayed at the US embassy? Or by US soldiers?

Keep showing everyone how stupid you are. You’re doing a fantastic job.

Damn

I’d sit on a plane like that for a month straight if I knew it meant I wouldn’t have my head cut off after watching my wife and children raped

Whoever organized and piloted this all deserve to be called heroes. That’s amazing.

Considering we flew it from the front of our embassy in Kabul, while tweeting about it, I'm rather sure they do.

Biden gonna fuss at them for not wearing masks?

Where is Biden? He fricking sucks. This is a more embarrassing, and possibly a more tragic exit that Vietnam.

This happened because of Biden’s orders.

It wasn't a discussion about the pride flag, in particular. It was a discussion about what would upset the Taliban. Unfortunately the US flag (which they hate and burn at every chance) upsets them far more than the pride flag (which they have never even acknowledged and don't care about at all).

Keep showing that you know nothing about what is actually happening, or whatever.

Its utterly incomprehensible. If we had a free and fair press, he wouldn't survive this.

I was about to ask why so many looked hispanic or Asian. It’s hard to tell from the blurry pic.

This guy cant get on tv because he cant function. Imagine voting for a person to be potus that should have around the clock care in a nursing home.



Jones, I think you’re a little younger than me but I feel the exact same way. I absolutely can’t believe he’s just silent. Nothing. The silence is deafening.

Something is up and they’re going to have to address it.

I would think so after 20 years, first the Russians then the USA, they have been playing the long game for years and apparently it’s working out for them.
