Speaking of the rapidly accelerating disaster in Afghanistan, the President Joe Biden It is the wrong person to do the right thing in the absolute worst way.
It is for this reason that the president created the ultimate scarecrow in his brief, no-question White House speech on Monday, to justify the withdrawal decision, not the withdrawal itself that he executed disastrously.
Waging a war in Afghanistan- Taliban It was a very reasonable decision to harbour the Al-Qaida jihadist group responsible for the September 11, 2001 attack.
We should attack Al Qaeda and its Taliban protectors with such shock and awe that they dare not want to contact the Americans again. This will send a message to Islamist supremacists all over the world that when threatened, our response will be rapid and serious. Then we should leave.
This requires understanding our enemies.
If we do, we will never try to turn a strongly tribal 7th-century relic invaded by Islamists—not Germany or Japan, regardless of its nature or the threat it poses—into Switzerland.
We could have fought without strict rules of engagement-as we did in Germany and Japan before.
We will formulate clear, specific and realistic goals, and we will also formulate a clear exit strategy.
We will exit before the weakest mission spread begins.
A broader movement to punish jihadists and those who refuse to surrender them will be governed by the same ideas. A plan to deter foreign jihadists and their harbours by using overwhelming force under certain circumstances, and by vigorously hunting down those already here and their assistants, abettors and promoters, and preventing others from passing over Our territory to defend the motherland from the Islamic supremacists is the border first-it should have ruled this day.
On the contrary, in Afghanistan and other fields, we are constrained in a ridiculous, rudderless, war quagmire-binding our hands, burning trillions of dollars and wasting countless lives on an effective racket. This war was a battle of zombies. Not only did it fail to serve the national interest, it actively undermined the national interest.
Our so-called representatives must conduct real post-mortem analysis. The record should document the root causes of Afghanistan’s failure: ignorance, arrogance, greed, and the invested participants must maintain the scam for as long as possible. Countless heads should roll. The lessons learned should promote the new policy innovation and the task reform of the old policy.
But of course, this is a pipe dream. At best, we will get toothless Kabuki hearings. Too many people in Washington are involved in the disaster in Afghanistan, so no one will be responsible for it. This is the same as many ruling class scandals that we have witnessed in recent years, from the origin of the coronavirus to spyware. Our institution will protect itself when it is under siege.
All these issues should be thoroughly investigated. But these are not today’s problems.

The problem today is that a leader, unlike his predecessor, apparently neither feared nor respected, and shamefully executed the exit awkwardly.
The problem today is the failure of Walker’s military and intelligence agencies under the President’s command.
The problem today is the propaganda coup that our opponents are enjoying, the strategic vacuum they will fill now, and when Emperor Biden is not wearing clothes, Emperor Xi is likely to take action in Taiwan and elsewhere.
The government is prepared to aggravate this disaster by superimposing it on another refugee-driven immigration crisis, which will only further prove that the crazy priorities of our current leaders will surely be caught by those who want us to hurt. It just further demonstrates that the elites have learned nothing—just from the politically correct naivety a generation ago to today’s cynical “fair” agenda.
What should they learn without paying any price for their stupidity?How to explain, although the Biden administration has not made it clear that it has no plans to do the minimum protection of Americans trapped in Afghanistan, it is deciding to accept as many as 30,000 Afghan refugees. American armies base? Although it is wrong to betray the Afghans who bravely fought with us, how can the government prove that it does not put the Americans first? Does anyone believe that the US government is capable of censoring these people? If not, then does caution require that if we are to engage in refugee resettlement business, we do so at a safe distance from the coast, where the cost is the lowest, and where they might assimilate?
Think about it: The core of the 9/11 terrorist attacks was the failure of immigration and related intelligence. Twenty years have passed, and we have invited tens of thousands of people from our first target country for these attacks. They are again controlled by the regime that sheltered the 9/11 attackers and immigrated here. What could go wrong?
In fact, 9/11 is the elephant in the room here. The biggest irony—aside from the immeasurable loss of blood and treasure—is that twenty years later, presumed efforts to avenge the dead have basically failed. The American elite even saved defeat from one of their only definite victories by transforming the disarmament of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya into Benghazi. Israel and several Sunni Arab countries were initially driven together in response to a former U.S. president. Barack Obama, Clearly authorized the world’s leading jihadist patron Iran-a protector of Al Qaeda.
Joe Biden is indeed the wrong person, and it is the right thing for him to withdraw troops from Afghanistan in the worst possible way. But he is also the perfect person to do this-as the former chairman and senior member of Washington, DC, he has a unique responsibility for foreign policy that undermines the strategic position of the United States. Senate Vice Chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, currently commander-in-chief.
His response to the criticism of the ruling class as the incarnation further made Biden the perfect candidate for the times. The ruling class that failed one by one failed to refrain from introspection. It does not hold itself accountable. It will not reform itself.
On the contrary, when faced with countless failures, it tries to be enemies of those who accuse it of failure. It portrays them as racists, bigots, and yes, terrorists.
Transition from the failed “Global War on Terrorism” to Erroneous civil war Therefore, it makes perfect sense to oppose those who dare to challenge the America Last project and its architects.
Former president Donald Trump The tens of millions of disliked like-minded Americans are the only thing that distinguishes the ruling class from complete, invulnerable power.
Americans can only hope that those who seek absolute control will show the same abilities here as they did abroad.
