    Slain Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Rylee McCollum’s sister Roice noted that Biden’s words did not comfort the family — especially her brother’s wife ,who was pregnant with his child.
    “My dad and I did not want to speak to him. You cannot kneel on our flag and pretend you care about our troops,” she said. “You can’t f— up as bad as he did and say you’re sorry. This did not need to happen, and every life is on his hands.”
    Roice said her sister-in-law was also frustrated by the president checking his watch and speaking about his own son. Schmitz also said he was agitated by the president checking his watch.
    Growth is found only in adversity.

    ALL LIVES MATTER!

    What exactly is this supposed to prove? That Biden has a stutter? Everyone already knows that.

    Maybe you can explain "covfefe" to us.
    I guess anything goes when regarding Trump but if making fun of biden it upsets your feelings.

    One woman screamed at Biden across the airport tarmac, “I hope you burn in hell! That was my brother,” according to Mark Schmitz, the father of 20-year-old Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz ,who was killed in the suicide bombing attacks outside the Kabul Airport, speaking to the Washington Post.
    This was probably when he was checking his watch like he had somewhere better to be at.

    Taliban - Wikipedia

    Do the Taliban choke their citizens to death, on the street, in front of children?

    It's glaringly obvious that a vast majority of Afghani people prefer the Taliban to the American invaders.

    My cousin was killed in Vietnam, after Nixon had the war extended for his own political gain, and it wasn't the Viet Kong who killed him. No more dead American kids for war profiteering.

    Funny how Vietnam is now an ally, once we quit assassinating their leaders.

    All that matters is that the war is over! All of the rest is just sand in the winds of Afghanistan, the graveyard of Empires.

    The USA now has the opportunity to better redeploy a tremendous amount of economic and military resources elsewhere in the world.

    Afghanistan and the Taliban needs the USA's economic assistance to reduce a soon to be humanitarian crisis.

    One day Afghanistan could become an economic parter to the USA just like Vietnam is today.

    No, they slit their throats or hang them or line them up against a wall and shot them, just to mention a few of the ways they kill those who oppose them. And they so it in public making everyone including children watch.

    Wrong again. The majority of Afghani people people are afraid to oppose the Taliban. If they do the Taliban will not only kill them but also every member of the family so that your blood line ends permanently.

    You have a rather tainted view of Vietnam. If it wasn't a giant ape that killed your cousin who was it. That's right, Kong was a giant ape. The Communist forces in South Vietnam were the Vietcong.
