It's an appalling thing to do to our allies, just as turkey was. Biden has screwed up too, I'm not excusing him of any blame, but the withdrawal process was started by trump.

WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden is under mounting pressure as he weighs whether to fully withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan by May 1, a deadline negotiated by the Trump administration.

The May 1 timetable is part of an agreement the Trump administration forged with the Taliban in February 2020

oh yes it certainly was, but biden agreed with it and implemented it. He could have reversed it.

I think the situation is much more complicated than it appears. For example, 1 high ranking taliban member said women will be allowed freedoms, education etc, while another says nope. One gives a commitment to not breed terrorists another group encourages it The government is a false organisation and it has no legitimacy because thats just not the way afghanistan functions

I agree it should have been reversed, but I think it's a bit disingenuous to put all this on Biden the way you seemed to. I'm not sure that reversing a deal that trump made with a terrorist organisation is the best way to avoid future terrorist attacks in the US which would have also needed to be taken into consideration.

I actually think the Turkey thing was worse - we left our Kurdish allies completely exposed to ethnic cleansing, which they have been facing most of the last 50 years.

I just heard on LBC that local forces have been in talks with the Taliban for weeks which is why they have offered no resistance

Why would you send troops back in now it would be a full on confrontation
