Analysis: Even President Biden's allies question the execution of the US military withdrawal from Afghanistan.
about the end of the U.S. war in Afghanistan: He's much more concerned about the blood and treasure of his own country.
But the question for many elected officials, policy experts and political strategists is whether the operation could have been executed more deftly.A swift Taliban takeover of Afghanistan — faster, Biden said, than he had expected — forced the country's president, Ashraf Ghani, to flee Kabul. Thousands of U.S. troops are now headed back to Afghanistan to provide security for U.S. citizens and allies who are desperate to get out.
"The choice I had to make as your president was either to follow through on that agreement or be prepared to go back and fight the Taliban," Biden said."I will not pass this responsibility on to a fifth president." Biden may be right that history will judge his overall decision as prudent. But even some of his fellow Democrats have been highly critical of the operation. Some Democrats see a tragic failure to plan for the aftermath.
"President Biden's team failed him across the board," Kofinis said."Not only should his national security adviser and his secretary of state be fired immediately, but anyone who let this national disgrace happen should be fired. ... Biden either makes immediate changes or he may not have much of a presidency left after this."
