Some people suggest that the military should not have fully withdrawn until Americans and their allies were evacuated. But, in broad strokes, that appears to be happening? Thousands of troops remain in Afghanistan, securing the airport and trying to help people leave safely. — PolitiTweet.org

Almost all of the criticism of Biden’s withdrawal has focused on the “execution” of the withdrawal And I understand because the situation was chaotic. But, beyond staying indefinitely, I’ve not heard a real explanation of HOW the execution was mishandled. Open to learning. — PolitiTweet.org

The other common suggestion is the “wait until winter” because it’s harder for the Taliban to fight in winter. But, by all accounts, the Taliban didn’t need to fight. The Afghan security forces simply evaporated. I don’t really understand how weather would change that. — PolitiTweet.org
