It seems this Afghanistan debacle has brought some of that unity Biden was talking about. It looks like the death of 13 marines and at least 100 stranded Americans may have forced the Left to admit Biden is not as competent they have been claiming he is. CNN, the fake news network, actually asked a real question. They wanted to know how Biden intended to strike back at ISIS-k when we don’t have any presence in the country. They asked an Intelligence Official about it and he concurred that it was a dumb move to completely abandon the country if we intend to take on ISIS-k there.
“But with the US-backed Afghan government in exile and the Taliban now effectively in charge of the entire country, retaining visibility into terrorist groups like ISIS-K will be more difficult, current and former officials say.
Even though the US can continue to fly surveillance drones over Afghanistan, because they will be launched from Gulf countries, the drones will spend as much as 60 percent of their fly time just getting to and from Afghanistan, limiting the amount of coverage that they can provide inside the country.
That creates blind spots, multiple current and former officials said. And without a network of human sources that the United States built up over 20 years, intelligence and military officials might not know where to “task” the drones to look.
You can have the most sophisticated air, but if you don’t have the information it doesn’t matter,” said one former intelligence official. “You have to know there’s a threat, then you have to know who is involved and identify them and say, ‘where are they going to be and when?'”
As a result, the Biden administration is grappling with whether some form of “loosely defined” diplomatic and counterterrorism relationship with the Taliban might be necessary.”
So in other words this was a huge mistake, and now we are stuck with weak intel on ISIS-k after they killed 13 of our marines, who were there just to secure the exit from the country. The Taliban just proved how trustworthy they are as they are holding six planes loaded with Americans hostage… The only thing we should be sharing with them is a drone strike. Biden invited this hostile treatment when he showed so much weakness.
