Darmik 08/15/21 6:11:24 PM #7:	I don't think the 'right thing to do' really has an answer here. It's going to cost the lives of good people who tried to make things better. But the alternative wasn't really working either. I guess leaving Afghanistan and doing a better job of protecting the allies that helped by granting more people refugee status is maybe the closest thing possible to 'the right thing' --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:957116116] in Was Leavin...

Nemu 08/15/21 7:12:28 PM #27:	Yes, though sounds like we could have left a lot more cleanly.

The US will be taking in a few thousand people who have worked with our forces over the years. But it doesn't look like Europe is going to be taking many if any in. A lot of them have agreed to stall deportations to Afghanistan, seems doubtful theyll agree to much more than that. --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle <cite>Solid Snake07 posted [p:957117867] in Was Leavin...

RamboCell29 08/15/21 7:19:54 PM #31:	Yes but obviously the exit plan was bad. This will go down in history as much, much worse than Vietnam. 20 years there and overrun in a matter of days. Especially after Biden's press conferences just weeks before, and as he left for vacation days before Afghanistan fell. That said this is not solely Biden's fault. This started because of Bush/Cheney, continued under Obama, and a crap exit plan was in place by Trump. Biden should have trashed that plan but now he gets the blame if god forbid a taliban-sponsored terrorist attack happens stateside or elsewhere. --- Don't support the destruction of gaming.
