@JuddLegum In terms of the Taliban taking over: absolutely. In terms of failing to heed warnings that really ramped up over the past few months regarding evacuations, no. Or how do you see the connection with the latter? — PolitiTweet.org

@JuddLegum To some degree, but also these visas could’ve been granted over the months since the withdrawal was announced. And covering it, I think, isn’t either/or. The idea that those who care about Afghans left behind are bloodthirsty journalists who “love war” is just nuts to me. — PolitiTweet.org
