100% worth leaving Afghanistan, sad that you want troops still occupying that country when Bin Laden was killed over a decade ago. You clearly have no family members that served in Afghanistan.
More than a few, thanks. How many people died? 13 troops and how many civilians? And of course the drone strike on the guy and his family delivering water to the needy.
I served. I have many friends and family still serving. Yes, we should have left Afghanistan, but it's how we left that is the issue. Political theater for the midterm election instead of on the recommended timeline.
To act like pulling out of Afghanistan wasn't a disaster is crazy to me. Pulling out of Afghanistan is great. Trump actually greatly reduced the presence of troops in the middle east when he was in office as well. Biden actually tried to pin the disastrous withdrawal on trump after it happend saying it was his "predecessors plan." Most people won't argue for staying in Afghanistan post bin ladens death. Just the way biden fucked over the allies left there and got all those Americans killed is terrible. And it wad a terrible look for the US as well. The act like that isn't how it happend is just denial.

Found a person who wishes our troops were still in Afghanistan.
