Troops Sent to Help Evacuate US Embassy in Afghanistan; Joe Biden's Words Come Back to Haunt Him

[Phazer]

Joe Biden spoke to the G7 a sum total of 7 minutes. Pure propaganda, photo-op.

Joe Biden acted like his G7 meeting was a success, but in reality it left every other world leader feeling disappointed in America.

In reality, not only did the meeting last only a couple of short minutes, it reportedly left every other world leader feeling disappointed and exasperated.​

​

“In the end it took only seven minutes for Joe Biden to pour salt into the wounds of his fractured relationship with European leaders, telling them firmly on a video call that he would not extend the 31 August deadline for US troops to stay in Kabul, as he had been asked by the French, Italians and most of all the British,” according to The Guardian.​

When they left, they cut the power...”the Afghans can’t get it working”.

Sounds about right.

So we could take the time to cut the power, but not take the time to let the EOD guys go nuts blowing up any weapons or weapon systems we left behind. Makes sense

Dateline revisits 'Bagram's Creature Comforts', a documentary that SBS aired on 28/02/10. The 25,000 people at the military compound can shop, eat and be pampered and entertained in an improvised mall, just like at home. But while many troops appreciate the American oasis in the Afghan desert, the troops' new commander is reportedly unimpressed.

I'm sure it's much more impressive now that it's been left powerless, in disrepair, and has been looted by Taliban and local scavengers.

The Dismantling of British Base Camp Bastion in Afghanistan. For 8 years, it's been the powerhouse of UK and US Military operations. Now, Britain's biggest overseas base since WWII is closing down for good. The doc team was given exclusive access to the men and women whose job it was to pack up this giant jigsaw puzzle, ending one of the longest wars in British history.
The camp, bigger than many towns in Britain, with a massive infrastructure - airport, hospital, fast food restaurants - is being dismantled and sent back to the UK. Any leftovers will be handed over to the Afghans. But with defenses and manpower depleting daily, the future of Afghanistan could become even more precarious with nothing in between its people and the constant threat of the Taliban. And as we've heard from the US, they plan on pulling out everything and every one by September 11 of this year.

WTF? That's like setting an apartment building on fire, staying on-site while the blaze reaches the 5th floor, and then taking credit for your prompt emergency response efforts once you start spraying water.
