    The Buck Stops Here


    President Joe Biden admitted on Monday that the collapse of the Afghan government and the Taliban retaking control happened more quickly than the US government had anticipated, insisted that ending America's 20-year war was the correct decision.

    But the President refused to back away from his decision to end the American military's combat mission in the nation, where the US had fought the nation's longest war, asserting that the US mission was "never supposed to be nation building" and blaming the Afghan government for the fall.

    "I stand squarely behind my decision. After 20 years, I've learned the hard way that there was never a good time to withdraw US forces," Biden said during a speech from the East Room of the White House Monday afternoon. "That's why we're still there. We were clear-eyed about the risks. We planned for every contingency. But I always promised the American people I would be straight with you. The truth is, this did unfold more quickly than we had anticipated."

    I watched the Biden press conference. He basically surrendered to the Taliban.

    Ex-Obama adviser calls on Biden to ‘shake up’ national security team after ‘disaster’ in Afghanistan

    An Obama administration adviser called on President Joe Biden to "shake up his national security team" after the Taliban quickly seized control of Afghanistan as the U.S. withdrew its troops.


    Brett Bruen, who was director of global engagement in the Obama White House, penned a scathing opinion piece in USA Today headlined, "Ex-Obama adviser: Why Biden must fire his national security adviser for Afghanistan failure."


    "President Joe Biden needs to shake up his national security team," Bruen wrote. "The disaster that unfolded in Afghanistan is illustrative of other major issues at the White House. The people, plans and processes the president has put in place to keep America safe are not working."

    What would you have done differently?

    Before you answer remember President Biden's plan has resulted in no US troops fatalities, no US troop casualties, no more US pumping a billion $ a month into a deeply corrupt Afghan economy.
