Joe is on a bombing raid
American B-52 bombers and Spectre gunships bristling with cannon have been sent into action against the Taliban in an attempt to stop the insurgents’ march on three key cities in Afghanistan.
The return of the massive B-52 “stratofortress”, after at least a year’s hiatus, is the clearest sign that the Pentagon is being forced to launch heavyweight daily assaults, not only to halt the Taliban but also to aid the US-trained Afghan air force as it struggles to cope with unprecedented demand for its services.

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
might have been different if the orange man was still in charge and in quote :
Had our 2020 Presidential Election not been rigged, and if I were now President, the world would find that our withdrawal from Afghanistan would be a conditions-based withdrawal. I personally had discussions with top Taliban leaders whereby they understood what they are doing now would not have been acceptable. It would have been a much different and much more successful withdrawal, and the Taliban understood that better than anyone. What is going on now is not acceptable. It should have been done much better
not telling you my source -lol

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
of course the orange man putting the boot in as expected today and in quotes :
It is time for Joe Biden to resign in disgrace for what he has allowed to happen to Afghanistan, along with the tremendous surge in COVID, the Border catastrophe, the destruction of energy independence, and our crippled economy. It shouldn’t be a big deal, because he wasn’t elected legitimately in the first place!
notice down to 47% in the polls today too will be interesting how this pans out by the end of this week

It's not actually a matter of copyright, TOBW. It just makes sense to define whether content, opinions and/or statements posted are one's own or that of another individual.

Which 'truth' are we on about now, Mozzer?
It looks to me as if the main stream media have spent a week laying into the Biden administration (and Biden himself) for a catalogue of failures and miscalculations about Afghanistan - and to a lesser extent into the UK government and NATO.
I have no problem with the decision to get western troops out - they should never have gone in 20 years ago. The justification for invading was false, and it was followed by mission creep and a quarter of a million avoidable deaths. Some people made money out of it too. I agree with almost all of the criticism about how the withdrawal was mismanaged (from Obama to Trump to Biden and their NATO allies where they had any influence) and a total failure of intelligence.
It may be different in the UK, but it looks as if the public response in the USA is broadly supportive of getting out, even if it is chaotic and leaves tens of thousands of Afghans to a grim fate. That was Trump's electoral calculation (when he arranged the secret talks with the Taliban that excluded the Afghan government and made massive concessions for no return) and it seems that Biden agrees (although Biden was always more sceptical about Afghanistan and Iraq than others in the Obama administration).
If there is anything more to say than the MSM has covered I'm sure you will let us know. Does Hunter Biden's laptop come into it? Or the ghost of Hugo Chavez? Or a Democrat plot to introduce sharia law into West Virginia?

There are many things to disagree with Tony Blair about , but in this case he is completely right. I think even Trump would have made a better job of this and that is saying something

Democrats have a big decision ahead Harris or an other , stick or twist ??

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
I agree that the manner of the USA withdrawal of their troops from Afghanistan was wrong, but aren't we ignoring the elephant in the room here? The Afghan army which was trained by the West at a cost of billions simply "melted away" when the chips were down. At the very least they could have delayed the progress of the Taliban rather than allow them to literally roll in unopposed, which would have given time for an orderly evacuation.

Or Joe could have left boots and logistics on the ground whilst an orderly evacuation took place running up to 31st August.

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
What a man-made hell hole. I felt sick to my stomach to hear about the Isis bombing near the Kabul airport. One minute there were women and children queuing desperately trying to get away and the next blown to pieces into a stinking "canal" (aka open sewer). I would imagine it is one of those scenarios where the living but maimed survivors would envy the dead. What a prospect for the future of Afghanistan - ISIS vs Taliban.

I have already commented on the billions of dollars seemingly wasted on training the Afghan army. Now see this....

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
What now Joe?? Word is the Supreme Court are likely to reinstate the Trump-era migration policies which old Joe halted .
He's already using the American First mantra.
Buggers up Afghanistan.
Is he going bomb folk next .
He certainly has blood on his hands with USA marines killed.

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
So much for the much vaunted "we will hunt you down" rhetoric following the ISIS suicide bombing. The drone succeeded in killing one ISIS terrorist. Surely better to have waited just the few remaining days before the final pull out of troops to do this. I fear this will prompt ISIS to go for a real scoop like bringing down a transport plane full of American troops as it leaves Kabul airport.

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
There are some really scary videos of press conferences with Joe Biden, scary in the sense that he is scarcely coherent and also that his is the final say on any military action. Reminiscent of Dr. Strangelove for those old enough to remember the film.
-
Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
Today's latest US drone attack on ISIS (the Afghan franchise) has so far scored 9 civilian deaths (6 of them children) and a cocktail of spin and misinformation about the 'intelligence' and the attack. The US seems to have invented exploding suicide vests. In fact it seems to have invented a fair bit of the story it is pushing about the attack. War On Terror playbook never put away. Also pissed off the Taliban by carrying out the attack without telling them, on Afghan soil, after they have been in a deadly war with ISIS for 6 years.

Re: Joe is on a bombing raid
Rocket attacks on Kabul airport but thankfully were intercepted apparently. Hoping and praying that my prediction of a direct attack on a U.S. military plane does not come about.

It did not happen, thankfully. The US have finally left Afghanistan, one day ahead of schedule. The BBC's Lyse Doucet is a brave lady - I assumed she would have left on the last US plane but she is still in Kabul. As a female journalist from the "West" she must be at risk surely.

Just for clarification , who did perform the attack that killed and maimed so many INNOCENTS at the airport before the drone attacks ??

ISIS. Or rather, it's Afghan affiliate (franchise holder) IS-K.
Why do you ask?
It doesn't change the spin, lies and civilian deaths from the US drone strike. Are you saying that ISIS murdering innocents in its suicide bomb attacks justifies the US murdering innocents in its drone strikes? I can't see any other reason for you to come in with 'just for clarification'?

No what I'm saying there all murdering bastards in their own ways , only difference they murder there own whatever ISIS variant you want to name they kidnap children ,stop woman's rights, restrict education , torture , rape , car bomb , cut heads off their own iin the name of Allah or some other nutty vision , you also have a number of non westernised countries like China ,Russia , Syria , North Korea ,Venezuela killing /imprisoning , torturing innocents ( as well you know ) yes drones are bad but USA is not killing its own FFS .
They are indefensible killers and evil .
