What are you talking about? Trump didn't surrender.Tex117 said:LOL, well....did he agree to pull out US troops or not? (He did). Hence, why would they throw a shoe at him?AG 2000' said:LOL no he didn't. Go back to your home, SHareBlue troll.Tex117 said:Because he surrendered to them.Squadron7 said:thirdcoast said:

They are throwing babies at Biden.
They didn't throw anything at Trump.
Trump did have an agreement that was working - we were keeping the peace with 2500 troops over there. Like everything else Trump did, the Biden administration tore up that plan and told the Taliban we were pulling out unconditionally.
This failure lies squarely at the feet of the Biden-Obama-Jarrett-Rice crew.
Bush crushed the Taliban...they will throw shoes at him..
He agreed to a withdrawal provided they kept certain conditions, like not taking territory, etc.
The Taliban crossed that line back in April, and when Biden told them "I know Trump said we'd bomb your asses, but I'm in charge now and we're just going to leave", the Taliban knew they had the green light to run all the way to Kabul.
The only surrendering was by the human vegetable up at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. and his puppetmasters.
Fox is reporting Qatar is no longer allowing US flights with Afghans to land, just a day after Sec of Defense Austin met with his Qatari counterpart yesterday at the Pentagon.

I mean yeah I'd hold us hostage for more cash too in the present situation
NBC's @ckubeNBC: Two US officials say no flights have taken off out of Kabul Airport in at least 8 hours.

My first thought is the permission is being rescinded because we asked them to do so. Need a good excuse for when the mission fails.TxAgLaw03RW said:

The report said it's because they are having trouble processing the 6,000 or so who are already there.

Is that dementia riddled potato still the president?
What the hell stupid crap is he intending to address the nation with this time?
The latest White House talking point. Got blown up by Pompeo this morning. Try again.Tex117 said:Because he surrendered to them.Squadron7 said:thirdcoast said:

Last time I checked, we still had forces in Afghanistan. We still had control over Bagram and several key operating bases. We were still in a supporting role with the Afghan military who were fighting the Taliban.
Then came 20JAN21...
Someone stopped contractor support to the Afghan Air Force. It wasn't Trump.
Someone stopped CAS support to the Afghan National Army. It wasn't Trump.
Someone ceased logistical support to the Afghan military shortly before fighting season. That wasn't Trump either.
The guy who did that was the same guy who wanted to surrender to the Soviets during the 1980s and the same guy who wanted to save Osama's bacon while the AQ leader was in Abbottabad.
Biden didn't surrender to the Taliban.
He joined them.
And he's put his complete trust in them to get Americans safely evacuated out of the country.
Could be storms - they are flying with visuals.
Or hopefully we are reaching out to grab some Americans.

No I think we currently don't have a place to fly them to since we can't use Qatar anymore.
More excellent planning by the Biden administration. Glad they planned for every possibility.
The current weather in Kabul is 73F, clear with 1% chance of rain and winds up to 8 MPH.

Is Kuwait an option? I can't think of anywhere close if not. Germany and Italy would be next but that adds a lot of time that we don't have.

I was responding to the dumb effing post about who gets shoes thrown at them. (Which was stupid to begin with)
Lighten up.
Hey Sleepy Joe, you set it in motion for this guy to die.

Jesus, yall need to lighten up. This all started about who gets shoes thrown at them like it was some sort of barometer of which leader they preferred or respected.

Is it even possible to take a vacation from a vacation?

Interesting that United Airlines still technically uses Afghan airspace on its flights from San Francisco to Delhi. I guess no way to do it efficiently because they have to avoid Iranian airspace so routing around that would make for a longer flight. It appears they are trying to avoid Chinese airspace too so they have to cut through the narrow strip in East Afghanistan.

This is what happens when you only have career bureaucrats who have never had to do anything in their entire careers running the show and have spent the last 7 months working on CRT, trans-gender basket weaving and spouting off about White Rage. This entire government should be removed from power via the 25th amendment applying to the entirety of command structure.
Turkish C-130 has took off from Kabul. Private charter US airplane on the way from UAE.
As a dad, this photo cuts right through me. God bless this man.
Grandpa Applesauce Brains should be ashamed.
Anyone summarize Biden's remark? I wasnt able to watch?
No Americans are having a problem getting to the airport. No allies have questioned America and this whole CF. We will get anyone who wants to get out, out. We either got 169 or 300 Americans out yesterday. We will not commit to going past 31AUG. oh and this information is just to the best of his knowledge.

Everything is great. What isn't is Trump's fault. Beau was in Afghanistan once.
As best I can tell there are 3 US military planes on the way to Kabul now should land in next 2 hours. There is a British military plane behind them. It's like a convoy in the sky.
The Hungarian Air Force plane just took.

The standard is the Berlin air lift. I don't see is anywhere near that productivity.
