Genius move trying to deflect blame to the guy Biden is willing to pit the "free world" against the ICC for, after sending him weapons in bulk every other day.

Fr, I'm wondering if Blue Dog liberals will ever come to understand that treating the people they are trying to "win over" like imbeciles who don't have access to a 24/7 news stream through the tiny computer in their pocket isn't "the strategy".

    wtf? Ending the war in Afghanistan? They were fucking destroyed by the Taliban, that’s all there is to it

      I seem to recall Trump signing some kind of treaty promising all troops would be pulled out near the start of Biden's term, and then there was a big panic as everyone left in a rush because we didn't really plan it all that well. Weren't there a lot of videos of people running alongside airplanes that were taking off, and something about our old bases being found mostly intact?

        Not just intact, but full of gear too. That why the Taliban guys in the photo ops that came after were so decked out

        I can’t remember the treaty you mentioned, but I definitely remember the scandal surrounding Afghanistan in early-mid 2021
