British Afghanistan veteran and politician on the current disaster

I don’t agree with everything this man says, but he gives a moving speech.

I am not against pulling U.S troops from Afghanistan. It has been 20 years and it is time to bring our troops home. I am against the mismanagement and incompetence with which the Biden Administration did it.

Even the nitwit British liberals at the BBC, maybe dumber than their American counterparts, recognize the magnitude of Biden Administration incompetence.

Three ways this Afghanistan crisis really hurts Biden

“…The shambolic unravelling of America’s withdrawal from Afghanistan comes from a yet to be written textbook of ‘how to lose at everything’. Warnings hadn’t been heeded, intelligence was clearly totally inadequate, planning was lamentable, execution woeful. . . . The withdrawal came during the ‘fighting season’ — a phrase I have to say I have always found rather odd. But in Afghanistan there is a fighting season which starts in spring — and then in winter, when the country freezes over, there is a time when the Taliban go home to their tribal homelands. Did no-one think that it might have been better to have ordered the withdrawal for the dead of winter when Taliban forces weren’t there, poised to fill the vacuum?…”

Accountability, where is it?

This is What a Whole of Government Epistemic Failure Looks Like

“…Accountability.

Even the most die hard Biden partisan should be demanding the resignation of the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Defense, and the National Security Advisor. In another age, they would have all resigned already – but we don’t live in that age.

All the Joint Chiefs of Staff need to resign as one. Either they own their collective failure because they offered this plan as a good one, or they don’t have the confidence of the President and their recommendations not to do this were ignored. Either are sufficient for resignation as honor demands.

They are imminently replaceable. We are bloated and thick with excessively credentialed General and Flag Officers who can take their place.

We can do nothing about the past, it is done.

The present is already written.

What we can do is set the condition for the future. We can try to contain the compounding damage to our national credibility.

A first step is to tell our remaining friends that the United States knows failure and rot when it sees it, and is confident enough to excise it and move forward.

We need accountability. The honorable thing to do is to resign. If not, the proper thing is for the President to fire those who advised him so horribly. If not the President, then Congress should have hearings with a pair of pliers in one hand and a blow torch in another and humiliate people in to resigning.

If neither happens, then bad on the American people for allowing a political system to function in such a way that people such as these are the ones who rise to the top of both parties…”
