[QUOTE="Reiser99, post: 1053688, member: 72977"] While I personally don't agree with the decision to just abandon Afghanistan, I wonder if actually it is a bit politically savvy from Biden. General consensus is that he is unlikely to run again in 2024 with Kamal Harris one likely candidate to succeed him. By doing this now and taking the heat, it avoids future democratic candidates being tarred by this brush. Maybe it's just the coverage over here, but it does seem like Harris is being kept away from this and Biden is trying to make it clear that it is his responsibility. Yes it's gone worse than expected, but it was a bit like pulling a plaster off, just had to get it down and out the way. [/QUOTE]
