Biden has few, if any, defenders on the chaotic last days of the 20-year war in Afghanistan, but ultimately, a war-weary nation may well give him a pass for ending America's longest war, regardless of the short-term costs in blood and treasure.

In Washington, Recriminations Over Afghanistan Emerge Quickly
President Biden is finding few outspoken defenders amid the chaotic collapse of the Afghan government. But after 20 years, a war-weary America may still give the president a pass.

I actually agree with the title, if not the editorializing. We elected 3 consecutive presidents who promised to end that war. The execution is a fiasco, but that probably won't be politically relevant in 2024. I actually suspect that factored into the decision to pull out now. Doing it early on like this allows to the news cycle to move onto something else by election day.
Never forgive, never forget.
Woah hey now! Cool it with the anti-semitism there buddy!
How is Joe Biden jewish. We should still remember his fuckups.
