In New Zealand, we have recognized the Taliban as the Legitimate government, and have given them a few million in aid. The young Taliban leader seemed well educated and polite in thanking New Zealand for their help in this time of need. I kid you not. He did actually seem like a nice enough bloke. This was well-orchestrated a long time back. So it does look like peace has broken out. It's a strange world.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told members of Congress on a conference call Friday that Americans attempting to evacuate Afghanistan have been beaten by the Taliban, directly contradicting President Biden’s assertion that U.S. citizens were not being blocked from the airport, two lawmakers told The Post.

I'd like to tell Mr. Austin what he can do. I'll even try to keep it civil.
Mr. Austin, you're the Secretary of friggin' Defense. If Americans are being attacked while trying to flee Afghanistan, DO SOMETHING TO DEFEND THEM. Use your authority for something other than forcing people to take drugs. Instead of blaming a senile old man, show a little initiative and lead. Bring to bear whatever force is needed to protect these people until the last American is evacuated.
What's the worst that can happen? You get fired for protecting American lives? And that's assuming Biden will remember anything you did.

I don't think that Beijing Joe is lying, and I don't think that it's the dementia (though either or both could be true).
I don't think he has a clue as to what's really happening. I believe that he is being essentially held hostage by his handlers. He's given snippets of information (statements) to regurgitate before the public, then whisked away back to his hide-out where he's kept in the dark.
I seriously believe that this is what is happening.

Some General needs to grow some cojones and start up a strike plan with other military leaders' support. President be damned.

I find 'Awaken with JP''s newest video about 'Joe Biden's Achievements' (it's kind of sarcastic) excellent and informative, it very well shows exactly what Joe Biden has done, and it's actually terrifying information - just delivered in a humorous way.
You can easily find it in youtube, I won't bother linking it. It has to do with this situation, Joe Biden and everything, and as it is very informative, I recommend seeking it out, and I hope this kind of thing is all right to do in this thread.
