WaPo Says U.S. Given Chance to Secure Kabul But Biden Wouldn’t Allow It
According to a report in the Washington Post, top Taliban officials met with senior U.S. military commanders including the theater’s top general and offered the option of securing the city themselves as the Afghan government fell apart and fled while the country’s military disintegrated ahead of the Taliban fighters’ advances.But rather than take the option, U.S. military commanders opted out and allowed the Taliban to take up security overwatch in the city because President Joe Biden refused to boost troop strength to carry out such a mission.
Read about it... and with this decision, the capital city then fell to the same force American and NATO troops had been fighting for 20 years.
