The entire senior military leadership in Biden’s administration needs to resign, America has gone from first to laughed at because of these woke losers.

“Taliban appoints fmr. Guantanamo prisoner as defense minister, report says”

With that background he might find himself in a confirmation fight when it goes before the Loya Jurga.

...isn’t that the way it’s supposed to work, Mr. Bush?

Shows ya can’t keep a good man down. Or a lousy cowardly low IQ foul smelling torturer like this guy, either. Can he get a weekly show on MSNBC now? Hopefully not bumping Al Sharpton out of his time slot, though.

“a review board determined deemed him to be “no longer a threat.””

If I were to write that “Every person on that Review Board needs to hang”, would I be wrong?

Afghanistan’s going to look like the West Bank after Israel pulled out and Hamas took over....only much much worse.

No one in this administration is going to resign. They would have to be physically forced out, and no one on the right has the spine for that.

Wonder how the Taliban are going to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of 9/11?

Black Ops needed to quietly take all their appointed leaders out one by one.

This started under Bush, the "compassionate" conservative.

After wringing as much info out of them as we could, all the Guantanamo prisoners should have been brought before a drumhead courts martial, found guilty of terrorism and being an unlawful combatant, and shot.

Why don't we win? We because our elites don't believe in our values enough to enforce them. There's no reason why the protection of the laws of war should have been afforded to any combatant we have faced since 1945. Our elites prefer to demonstrate their false magnanimity with our lives, our safety, and our livelihoods.

Every one of the prisoners in Gitmo should have been shot years ago.

Its a very nasty thing to say this man while at Guantanamo gave very specific information that led to lethal attacks on the Taliban and especially his rivals. Extremely nasty to let it be known that since he was released, he has been a paid agent and continues to supply useful information. Sure the clear thinking, insightful Taliban would dismiss such allegations as infidel subterfuge and lies. Also doubt the Biden cabal would ever say such things.

“I want to go back home and join my family and work in my land and help my family.”

Sounds like the same excuse our criminals in Congress use.

Biden needs to replace the Chief Joints and his idiot Def Sec with Taliban.

Of course, all we have to do is discreetly put out that while at Gitmo, he was “turned” by the CIA, and they’ll likely cut off his head.
