Republican Senators Eviscerate Biden's Decision to Withdraw Troops From Afghanistan
Joe Biden announced on Tuesday that his administration is planning to execute a full withdrawal of American troops in Afghanistan. The president plans on a September 11 withdrawal conclusion date, which would mark the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks that occurred in 2001.
Senate Republicans reacted to the unexpected news, overwhelmingly deeming the president’s decision shortsighted. Senate Armed Services Committee ranking member Jim Inhofe (R-OK) said that the move is “reckless and dangerous,†and that it uses an “arbitrary date†for withdrawal.

THIS is what the RINOs prevented Trump from doing, and they had no good reason then, either.
We have no business in Trashcanistan if our troops are not allowed to win battles and kill enemies. We should have devastated the place 20 years ago, told them "you don't want us to come back", and left them to their fate.
If there was another attack, we should have poisoned their crop lands, all three acres, with dioxin and Co-60 killed their camels and destroyed whatever was left of their infrastructure, with the promise that they would no longer be allowed to have nice things ever again.
Now Biden is taking orders from Iran, see what happens?
McConnell says:
“Precipitously withdrawing U.S. forces from Afghanistan is a grave mistake. It is a retreat in the face of an enemy that has not yet been vanquished and abdication of American leadership,†McConnell said on the Senate floor. "A reckless pullback like this would abandon our Afghan, regional, and NATO partners in a shared fight against terrorists that we have not yet won. It will also specifically abandon the women of Afghanistan, whose individual freedoms and human rights will be imperiled."
Why hasn't it be won, ()itch?
Only because our troops were not allowed to win, just like in Viet Nam. We should not be committing troops to battle to lose.
Period.
The ROE should always be simple: Go in, kick ass, win, let them bury their wounded and dead, not our problem. Then go home. The enemy gets to fix their damage without our help.
It's been time to quit Trashcanistan since before Bush Boy had his second term.

I agree with Biden on this

I agreed with Trump when he proposed drawdowns in all 3 of these theaters~Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria. The Pentagon is peeing on bidet's leg just like they peed on Trumps.

I agree with Biden on this
He ain't gonna do it.

He ain't gonna do it.
Sure he will.
Iran wants the US military away from their border.
Russia wants the US military to get farther away.
China doesn't want the US military in a region they have imperial ambitions towards.
The only party that won't get what they want from this is the Democrats, who want American military men killed.
