You mean, like the USG should save our friends in Afghanistan? That would imply that we care. We have been paying off the Taliban for years. We essentially created the Taliban, remember? theguardian.com/world/2009/n…

Marianne, I have a lot of respect for you. However, your sudden desire for continued occupation of Afghanistan ignores 500 years of history. Furthermore it was US intelligence services that "radicalized" the country in the first place, remember? theatlantic.com/photo/2013/0…

Someone certainly needs to do something ... This was foreseen by many and could have been easily averted ... Although ... I doubt the International Community will dare to do anything that Biden isn't on board with ...

How could it have been foreseen if everyone is lying and corrupt?

What we’re seeing now is more bullshit narrative from MSM who represents the MIC and their shareholders.

May people remember these days in the future. May it give them pause next time they feel inclined to argue for military intervention.

Marianne Williamson sounds like another neoliberal CIA mouthpiece

This was all foreseen, they just didn't care. Psychopaths run our country and foreign policy. 30,000 U.S. soldiers commuted suicide after serving in the Iraq and Afghan occupations. No one cares.
