Instead, he resorted to the same tired talking points and weird non sequiturs he\u2019s trotted out for two weeks to explain once again why he had no regrets about his \u201cwise decision.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo nation has ever done anything like it in all of history,\u201d Biden bragged, focusing on those who got out while throwing shade on those left behind. \u201cNinety percent of Americans in Afghanistan who wanted to leave were able to by the deadline. For those remaining Americans, there is no deadline.\u201d As long as the Taliban never find them, anyway. <\/p>\n<p>Biden cited Americans \u201cwho had decided earlier to stay\u201d but \u201cnow wanted to leave\u201d \u2014\u00a0not mentioning he\u2019d confidently told them there was no chance of a Taliban takeover, despite the intelligence he saw to the contrary. He complained of the Afghan government \u201chanding over the country to their enemy, the Taliban, and significantly increasing the risk to US personnel and our allies\u201d \u2014\u00a0not mentioning that US forces bolted Bagram in the dead of night. Way to build Afghan morale!<\/p>\n<p>In short, he implied that those left behind have only themselves to blame. Oh, and President Donald Trump, who tied Biden\u2019s hands, he claimed \u2014\u00a0though the current president then declared proudly, \u201cI made a decision to end this war,\u201d saying it fulfilled his campaign promise.<\/p>\n<p>Denial ran deep: \u201cCouldn\u2019t this have been done in a more orderly manner? I respectfully disagree,\u201d Biden said. \u201cThere still would have been a rush to the airport\u201d had the evacuation started in June or July.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>Perhaps. But that airport wouldn\u2019t have been surrounded by Taliban checkpoints in a Taliban-controlled city. The terrorists turned away some people with permission to go\u00a0\u2014\u00a0but passed through a man intent on mass murder.<\/p>\n<p>Now, for all the president\u2019s talk of \u201cover the horizon\u201d capability against ISIS and other terrorists, we\u2019ll have almost no intelligence from Afghanistan to direct such fire. Nor have any base at all in central Asia, a hotbed of terrorism and a stepping stone further East.<\/p>\n<p>Biden insisted the only choice, the \u201creal choice,\u201d was \u201cbetween leaving or escalating.\u201d Either America left in ignominy or we\u2019d have to \u201csend in thousands of more troops and escalate the war.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>After the fact, he simply can\u2019t imagine a withdrawal with honor that left no American behind. So he insists a mad disaster wrought by his own decisions is an \u201cextraordinary success.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>His next triumph, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>arently, will be bribing the Taliban to release its de facto hostages, the people Biden just last week said wouldn\u2019t be left behind. That\u2019s the real meaning of the \u201chumanitarian aid\u201d he says Secretary of State Antony Blinken will offer in his \u201cnew diplomatic mission.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Afghan evacuation is over but not the Afghan debacle.\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
