I know that saying that I actually support something will be taken as political, while all the complaints are obviously not political. If I get banned, so be it. I am proud to be an American and support the Presidents decision to withdraw. I am confident he did was he and his advisors thought was best. I am sorry it didn't work out - that is war. It is messy, it is deadly and it is never the people that sent us there that serve and die.
I’m not at all trying to make this political but the plan to remove Americans and friends of America was totally botched. You may disagree with the term, “incompetence”, but I’m not sure how else to describe it. Read the article from the NY Times first published on August 21st and updated on the 25th. There were mistakes and miscalculations galore. Advisors can offer advice but the results are only as good as the decisions made. The whole situation was a monumental mistake that could have been avoided.
