The other part of the agreement was preventing a terrorist foothold. We will see.(08-27-2021, 10:54 AM)Cardfan1 Wrote:To repeat, peace is negotiated between enemies, not between allies. Chamberlain signed an agreement with Hitler and Hitler wasted no time breaking it. Chamberlain did the honorable thing for being so gullible and resigned as the British PM. The terms of peace treaties must be enforced. The Taliban broke the terms of the deal and then Biden's administration put them in charge of securing the airport perimeter and provided them with what will surely be a kill list.(08-27-2021, 10:24 AM)Hoot Gibson Wrote:Why would North Koreans be in South Korea? Another nonsensical fallacy presented by Dr. Hooter.(08-27-2021, 10:04 AM)Cardfan1 Wrote: Wait wait...Trump could sign an ill-advised peace deal with this group and the Biden administration can't trust them to help with the withdrawal. Dr. Hooter, you show us daily you have a doctorate in Hypocrisy.Thank you for providing the dumbass perspective, as expected. We signed a cease fire deal with the North Koreans but we have never placed them in charge of guarding American troops and civilians in South Korea. Cease fire agreements and peace deals are not negotiated and signed between allies.
Only an idiot would defend providing the Taliban a list of American names and the names of Afghans who have helped in the war against the Taliban. You are fully qualified to provide such a defense.
I didn't say it was a good plan, but there aren't any other options unless we surge some troops and that is a no for me. Anyway, these guys were trustworthy enough for your Tangerine Dream to sign on the dotted line last year, so why are you whining now?
The terrorist attack makes the Taliban look terrible and weak if they truly were working with the US. It's not logical to act as if they were guilty. Why would they send a suicide bomber in...they have thousands of troops: They could easily take the airport.
Will Biden do the honorable thing and resign? Of course not. Only honorable men act out of a sense of honor.
Why would Biden resign? Did Bush resign when we found out the WMDs was nothing but a lie? How about Reagan when we learned about his arms deals with Iran? Obama when ISIS filled the vacuum in Iraq? Trump when he abandoned the Kurds?
Your bar for how well this was going to go is a little high, Dr. Hooter. My thoughts and prayers are out there for all of our citizens and military personnel who struggling through this, but anyone thinking a withdrawal from wartorn Afghanistan was going to be easy is just obtuse.
