Never in history has withdrawal been handled so badly": Trump

The Biden government is facing severe criticism in USA over the withdrawal of American forces from Afghanistan. Former president Donald Trump has said that never in history has a withdrawal from war been handled so badly or incompetently as by Americans from Afghanistan as the United States flew its last military flight out of Kabul bringing back all of its armed forces from the country. "In addition to the obvious, ALL EQUIPMENT should be demanded to be immediately returned to the United States, and that includes every penny of the USD 85 billion dollars in cost," Trump said.

Trump said as the longest American war came to an end, with the Taliban regaining power in the country which they had lost after the American invasion weeks after the September 9/11 attacks. "If it is not handed back, we should either go in with unequivocal military force and get it, or at least bomb the hell out of it. Nobody ever thought such stupidity, as this feeble-brained withdrawal, was possible!" he said. 

"The Biden administration was more focused on hitting an arbitrary targeted date rather than hitting the conditions that will permit the execution of the mission that delivers on behalf of America," alleged former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. "No, there was no obligation for the departure date. The obligation was to the American people and to secure America," he said.  Republican Congressman Lee Zeldin, member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee and United States Army veteran, said the US completed its withdrawal from Afghanistan with many Americans still stuck behind enemy lines desperate to get out, and USD 85 billion in US weapons and equipment was now in Taliban hands.Comments"This is a historic disgrace of epic proportions ordered by President Biden," he said.
