Afghanistan one year later

 From the Patriot Post:


Afghanistan one year later: "Not one senior Biden Administration official nor military officer has resigned or been fired as a result of the withdrawal. That is a disgrace to our country," Army National Guard colonel and Representative Mike Waltz (R-FL) stated on Tuesday, the one-year anniversary of the day the last American troops left Afghanistan. Waltz added, "Because of their actions, or lack thereof, the fallout of this debacle has irreparably harmed both our national security and global image." Now a year after Joe Biden's disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal and surrender to the Taliban, the situation for Afghanis has gotten predictably bad under the rule of these jihadis. Women specifically have seen nearly all of the advances and freedoms they enjoyed for the last two decades of U.S. control effectively eliminated. Furthermore, Afghanistan has once again become a haven for al-Qaida and ISIS terrorists as they arm up with the billions of dollars of U.S. military equipment left behind. Then there were the American citizens and thousands of Afghan allies that Biden abandoned to the mercy of the Taliban. "A GOP majority must carry out public investigations in a manner that has broad jurisdictional oversight and subpoena power over the Department of State, Department of Defense, and Intelligence Community," Waltz asserted. "We owe it to the thirteen Gold Star families ... the veterans who served in Afghanistan, and to the thousands of allies we abandoned."
