'We Achieved Our Military Objectives': Evelyn Farkas On End Of Afghanistan War
Abandoning countless Americans was an “objective”?
Diplomacy ? Are you kidding!!!
@Make Racists Afraid Again yes it did..
Both the taliban and democrats are celebrating the end of the war and calling it a success. The rest of the world is mocking democrats and calling the withdrawal an absolute failure
@BlaQ Bay17 did the trump administration know how many Americans were there ?
@parker smith why isn’t the rest of the world sacrificing there young to fight for the Afgan people that don’t want to fight for themselves. Every country that was there with us pulled out before we did .
And what about all the military service dogs left behind…..what about them uncle Joey?
@FAFO now I know why tRUMP likes the uneducated,
@Wieslaw MaciagGod you have wounded me deeply……now I really need a good cry and then a lie down…..I guess your idea of a lady is Jill Biden who at 70 dresses like she’s headed to a retired street walkers convention,or maybe Kamala “knee pads” Harris…..anyway I’m bored now so I’ll leave you to your democrat altar of false promises and empty dreams.
@Judy Marlene you tell the truth girl!!! There’s nothing they hate worse than….Truth.
@Judy Marlene beauty is only skin deep, looking at your photograph you place great deal on vanity, you mentioned Jill Biden and Kamala Harris , its plain to me they do not suffer from such insecurities, both off them have reached apex of their own profesion.
@Dar you can try and insult me , but its going to be like “a water running of the ducks back, been there ,done it , and got the tshirt.
We transferred 10 trillion US tax dollars to American weapons manufacturers. Mission Accomplished.
American manufacturers? Most probably come from the same CCP factory as those useless paper thin masks.
The fossil fuel and pharmaceutical companies likewise made a ton of money in Afghanistan.
Both the taliban and democrats are celebrating the end of the war and calling it a success. The rest of the world is mocking democrats and calling the withdrawal an absolute failure
@parker smith What would you do instead?
The Taliban knows better than to let jihadi groups use Afghanistan as a summer camp after last time. They’ll crack down on them if only to deny the U.S. an excuse to reinvade.
They say that they were surprised by how fast. Generals and CIA are paid to not be surprised. It is always the fault of the General staff, high rank comes with high risk. At one time they would be required to fall on their sword.
We definitely need to step up our effort to help get people out.
Everyone involved should own their mistakes. That’s the sign of a true leader, not a coward trying to manipulate people
Democrats should go..
@Jeremy Saunders division should go.. that’s what’s being pushed. We need to become more wise and unite against the ones that misinform and purposefully try to turn us against each other

Just heard that dude that hates the organ it was born with Madcow, show got canceled.
We lost. that’s why we withdrew. grieving processes are different for all going through it.
Biden & Obama & Harris in a cage would help a lot of people through the grieving process
Don’t blame me, I didn’t vote for him
This was trump’s plan aswell.
@Jimmy Wang actually he didn’t follow trumps plan cuz trumps plan was going beautifully…not a single american killed in 18 months…went from 15000 troops to 2500…and had the taliban under control…and we pry would of been out safely by may 1…trump bombed Taliban after every move they made and Biden didn’t he let them do what they want and it got out of hand and before he knew it this disaster happened
@b s I’d read what you typed if you knew how to punctuate properly…
Spark plugs , them Brats raised up by them old school fire house wrecking crews. It’s just something some guys used to do for whatever public service reason.
Joe “Shelter In Place” Biden
This what the United Nations is for. They should be helping in get all legally approved people no matter what or who they are out of country.
Congratulations Joe! Please NO MORE US Bombing in the name of Peace..
If the objective was to supply the towlies with our military weapons and leave people who helped us to die, then yes you achieved your objective.
How would you feel if you are behind enemy lines and they Don’t worry, Joe Biden is on the case”.
That is when you know you are definitely screwed.
We achieved our military objectives in the first two weeks 20 years ago. Leaving behind Americans, $69B in military hardware and supplies, pulling our troops out and not giving our Allies any time to safely pull out their people, being castigated by UK Parliament, German leaders, and made a laughingstock for the world, has just made our initial achievement so much wasted time….all because of a corrupt old fool…Biden.
Objective: Bilking the taxpayers of money for military contractors.
We have a bioweapon on the loose, worse bioweapons to come, nukes, AI weapons, and antimatter. What did we achieve? Pretty much it’s time for Resurrection through time travel and seven eyes of God.
We’ll be hearing so much spin that we’ll faint from dizziness.
