I reckon we've got ourselves a real problem. During those 20 years how many Taliban sleepers and sympathisers have we taken in?
Of course it'll fit, you just need a bigger hammer.
A lot have been hiding out there for years.
All this because 'Dubya' Bush wanted to show the world how big his manhood is.
And because Biden has no gonads. Once again, we are likely to be picking up the tab because of our 'special' relationship.

All looks just a bit too staged. It's surely obvious the West had no real purpose for being there - or trying to stay there. Another egregious example of waste and the pushing of agendas.
Special relationship or special needs relationship? Definitely the latter as far as Westminster is concerned.

At least the UK's not as much of a whipping boy for the Americans as when Tony Blah was 'runnng' the country.
It looks as though the special needs relationship might be over and out!

I was listening to the radio before I got up this morning. One of the guests was saying that it shows how much the UK depends on the USA because we can't keep Kabul's airport open without them. So much for being Boris' stand-alone global player.
We aren't a global power, people really need to realise this; our politicians most of all. Various governments have hacked back at our military, we'd be lucky to handle one small insurgency without help these days. And we certainly couldn't handle anything like the Falklands conflict again.

We can always beat them with Bo-Jo's new cyber warfare skills and sci-fi style beam weapons!
He could always bore them to death, Lex. LOL

I don't get that far; nowadays, I just have to see a picture of him to plunge into a pit of despair.
