Afghanistan: Hello?

That he will not send American sons and daughters to Afghanistan, or anywhere else, to die in what he believes is a futile endeavor that will not enhance core US security.

But send those same Americans a bill for 3.1 trillion in order to send the money to China because there is no way we have the capacity to supply green in the short time allowed without supplying lots of green to non Americans.

Not having the basic materials is undermining the core security of Americans.

China is sitting back laughing their ass off,they are the ones that are going to benefit from this.

The President really does not have much say in the private contracts aspects unless he defunds the DOD and CIA otherwise he would have been bringing up the sending of thousands of Americans to fight in SA which outside of the exact same rare earth materials is futial American endeavor.

Using that basis we have military in conflict in many countries,it is just not published daily,but they are doing the exact same thing,preventing thousands from getting slaughtered.

If he is going to use that argument,pull all military out of ongoing conflicts that does not directly effect the security of this country.

It shows this is 90% political and that is what cost lives.

We are the taxpayers that paid billions for that equipment,we should be able to reserve the right to repossess it or give us our money back.

The taliban must have some heavy dirt on some powerful people in this country,because they are letting every other military in the world escort people to the airport but the United States and Americans

They are Americans,it is Americans responsibility to get them out,why would we sacrifice 10,000 American lives in order to appease the Taliban?

The taliban can take some pride and credit in knowing they brought America to their knees and made them do their bidding,that is hero status in that click,when did we start being their bitch.

Senior British military officers expressed anger over the U.S. pullout, saying it exposes the hollowness of the trans-Atlantic "special relationship" — a phrase used since World War II to stress the bonds of history, friendship and shared diplomatic interests between London and Washington.
