Now I am no fan of Biden, but you can't just blame all on him, because doing so (and good fun in its own right) simply lets everybody else off the hook.

Twenty years of so called "Nation Building" collapsed before we could even run for the exit!
The Afghan Army disappeared overnight so convincingly, its hard to believe much of it ever really existed in the first place.
The act of the Government collapsing into a heap, the moment that support and direction was removed, simply confirms that it conformed to the perfect definition to the word puppet.

The naked truth is that the Afghanistan project has been a fraud from beginning to end and there are far more fraudsters still at large other than doolally Uncle Joe.
(Expect to see a sudden surge of pandemic scale of dementia diagnosis throughout the leadership responsible for this debacle.)

Biden accelerated it so he could say we are out before the 20th anniversary of 9-11.
All on his watch. No blaming Trump, now.
12 troops coffins in the last planes and for what? So sad.

yep typical deflection onto trump. The "bad orange man " is long gone , biden could have stopped this if he wanted to. He has more than enough time to reverse any earlier decision made by trump or anyone else.

typical blame shifting from the ususal suspects.

Biden in the USA and johnson here really does highlight the remarkable depths to which the western worlds politics have sunk.

Afghanistan: Who originally supported Trump's deal with the Taliban?

UK Defence Secretary Ben Wallace now calls it a "rotten" deal but supported it at the time.

The problem with that headline is the article itself makes clear Wallace expressed pretty limited support for the hope it was a move in the right direction, and in several occasions stated things would have to be taken one step at a time.


You have to read pretty deeply to find the admission by the propaganda merchant penning this bullshit that while a me criticise Starmer for not saying anything at the time, the party was being (mis)led by Corbyn then


In another "headline" on the site, visible at the bottom of this page, we are told "last UK troops leave Kabul and the blame game erupts"


Particularly so in the case of the BBC News site, it seems
