Afghanistan came apart four years ago. After years of wanting to leave and preparing to leave, the Biden administration decided it was time to leave before 9-11 so they could have some good media coverage for the anniversary of the attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. What followed would be a comedy of errors if it hadn’t killed thousands of people and more.

First the Biden administration ordered the military to abandon one of the world’s largest military air bases in the dead of night without even telling the local soldiers they were leaving. And they left all of their big weapons and equipment behind. That allowed all of the terrorist prisoners to be released to rejoin their terrorist friends and go back to killing people. And then the entire administration went on vacations and waited for the good news coverage to come in.

Once they realized that they were getting a public relations disaster instead, the Biden administration came back from vacation to send the Marines back in to secure the civilian airport in the middle of the capital city of Afghanistan. An airport that was not designed to be secured. In the middle of a city. With many, many, thousands of Afghan civilians that wanted to escape before the terrorists walked in and started killing them. So desperate to escape that they were crawling onto landing gear and trying to hang on as the planes lifted off. And they didn’t take time to check out the people they packed onto the plains, and it was later determined that at least some of the people they brought all the way back to the United States were in fact known terrorists.

And because the Biden administration did not want the public relations disaster of shooting terrorists as they were leaving, they did not authorize the Marines to actually shoot terrorists while they were trying to keep the airport secure. Even when the Marines pointed out actual known terrorists they fully believed were about to attack them, and asked for approval to shoot the terrorists before they attacked, the Marines were not given approval to shoot. Which resulted in a known terrorist walking up to a group of Marines and killing them with a bomb vest. That killed thirteen Americans, wounded dozens more, and killed some hundreds of Afghan civilians who were trying to get to safety inside the airport.

The Biden administration needed to act strong after that, so they dropped a missile on an Afghan family, including children, called them terrorists, and said they got payback for our dead Americans. And when asked about the chaos of the evacuation, they said that everything was orderly and going according to plan. And then they called an end to the evacuation, pulled the last planes out, and said everything was successful. But they left behind dozens or hundreds of Americans, thousands of Afghan allies, and millions of women and girls that really didn’t want to be ruled by the terrorists who were going to subjugate them again. They also gave the terrorists of list of all of their Afghan allies, complete with biometric data, to make certain the terrorists could identify them all.

To no surprise of anybody, that sent the Americans and Afghan allies left in country running for their lives and calling for help. Numerous private concerns sent in aircraft to pick up the people and take them to other countries where they could be safe. The Biden administration, not wanting to be shone in a bad light leaving people behind, declared that they had left nobody behind, that everybody still in country chose to be there, and then called the neighboring countries and demanded that they not accept private aircraft flying Afghan civilians out of Afghanistan into their airspace.

And finally, when the dead American Marines and medic came back to America in their flag-draped coffins to be returned to their families, President Biden was there to check his watch after each one was unloaded. He was probably wondering when he was going to get his next ice cream cone.

And if you think any of this unbelievable, everything I just mentioned was attested to by people who were on site and experienced it when it happened. Every single one of these instances must be investigated, and if found to be true, the people who did them must be punished. These actions resulted in the deaths of thousands of individuals, American and Afghan. And they made America such a laughing stock in the world that the Russians figured they could get away with a full-scale invasion of Ukraine that has killed another million estimated people.

The Biden administration’s actions killed our own citizens and our allies four years ago, and then they held no one responsible for it. We must find out who did what and hold them responsible for what they did. Our own dead of four years ago demand it.
