Very sad.
You know nothing, Jon Snow.


You and I and everyone on this thread know nothing about the plans that were made in advance of the withdrawal. For all we know, this was the BEST possible thing that COULD have happened, and it went flawlessly, according to plan. The only thing we can know for absolute sure:

1. This war started when Bush was President.
2. It continued while Obama was President.
3. trump "negotiated" a deal to withdraw by May and released 5000 Talibans from prison, including the leader who has taken over Afghanistan.
4. Biden met with the various military organizations and departments of our country and came up with *a* plan to withdraw. No singular person made this decision, and there were leaders of these various departments and organizations who have been with these departments and organizations throughout the previous administration, and the current one.
