Former CIA Director and Secretary of State Leon Panetta, who served under President Barack Obama, gave an ominous warning about the situation in Afghanistan during a televised interview to be aired Sunday.
“The Taliban taking over Afghanistan is pretty much the same Taliban that controlled Afghanistan on 9/11,” Panetta said during the taping of “Full Court Press with Greta Van Susteren.” “It's clear to me that they're going to continue to support Al-Qaeda, and I think they will plan additional attacks on our country, as well as elsewhere.”
The Taliban controlled Afghanistan when Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda launched the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks on the United States in New York City and Washington, D.C., when 20 radical Islamic terrorists hijacked and crashed passenger planes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center as well as crashing a passenger plane into the Pentagon.
A fourth plane crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after passengers fought the hijackers off as they headed for another target, killing all on board.
Both towers in New York collapsed, killing more than 2,700 people including more than 300 police, firefighters and other first responders.
U.S. forces went into Afghanistan to find and kill Bin Laden, fighting the Taliban back and taking over the country.
Bin Laden was eventually found and killed by U.S. Navy Seals in Pakistan in 2011, and a U.S. backed government was set up in Afghanistan.
President Donald Trump initially negotiated a withdrawal from the country after 20 years based on the situation on the ground, but President Joe Biden extended the May deadline to Aug. 31, rapidly pulling the 2,500 troops in the country out.

I’ll say this for Panetta. He was the one who made the call to take Bin Laden when Obama was unwilling to.

maybe easy call - what employee doesn’t know what his boss is likely to do in a situation? Duplicitous is as does. Playing a double game, ol’ Lie On was.
The fact is that Bush and Cheney did a bad job responding to 9/11. Remember even John McCain criticized the light response when we entered Afghanistan?
Water wet, news at 11
If that's so, it's the same dangerous game the Saudis played/are playing
right? hell my bookie coulda told me that, and given me the odds for it too...
Pssst. It was the Sauds. But you already know that.
Captain Obvious strikes again!
The Sauds were the smaller part of it. I hope you know that too.
Every FReeper should listen to the entire GWB speech as Shanksville and the even more appalling one from Heels Up Harris which was disgusting in its entirety.
“they look different than us”... really? You mean like the Caucasus islamics who do NOT, but recite the Koran as trained in Arabic? Hmmmm karamela, what do your hindu indian kin think about that kind of crap spewing from you. One stupid stone head evil person.
Yes— “Glassghanistan” a new area incapable of anything.
My cat’s been saying the same.
Nostradamus had nothing on this guy.
These aren’t predictions, they are certainties.
The Dems know it, the real terrorists know it, Biden knows it. They attack every day and now on our dime.
Did they really take him? The timelines of the recent Leon Panetta saying “we need to go back into Afghanistan” and that he expects a US attack from al-Qaeda (two days ago. and Lindsay Graham before that 5 days ago) becomes pertinent.
A whistleblower, Alan Parrot’s recorded/transcripted conference call with former PA Congr. Curt Weldon (R-PA), Parrot, and Brian Ettinger, Joe Biden staff assistant/fixer and former Chairman US DOJ Organized Crime Task Force Advisory Committee: The discussion was how to get bin Laden to the US (from Iran)and statement from Ettinger that Leon Panetta and Hillary Clinton would have huge pushback on this. That bin Laden was under US paid protection (not to attack the US) in Iran- an inherited situation/agreement begun with GW Bush, and carried on by Panetta/hillary. This is hair raising stuff— since the major payoff of the “Iran nuclear deal” was in cash by obama (cover story being a payback of funds paid to the US in arms deal with the Shah- and a Hague Court decision? BS). And Kerry is in on this too, the moron.
Here is the transcript of the call:

Trump re-tweeted the twitter from retired USMC Sgt. John Teigen with transcript, and shortly thereafter— was removed from twitter October 2020. Journalist Anna Khait presented this at #AMPFest. American PriorityFest.

One of the joebama team interface with Pakistan.
Panetta is the “out of office” link to all the people who are running the disaster withdrawal from Afghanistan: Susan Rice, Jake Sullivan, Psaki, other State goobs. The same ones involved in Benghazi gun running and Amb Stevens death and the deaths our heroes who protected him suffered at the hands of the “moderate al-qaeda” bozo mccain talked about. How daft.
See Treehouse 9-11-2021 post on 9 year anniversary of Benghazi. And look a the photo of all the bad actors lined up at the Memorial. Billy Boy,hitlery, obamuzzie,Big Mike, Xiden and “dr”Jill the over 70’s cheerleader who wants to go full Australia on us on covid. Fascists/opportunists all.
