With the focus of global media, the situation in Afghanistan has changed suddenly. The chaos of the “U.S. failure”, “Kabul fall” and the US withdrawal from Afghanistan have frequently become hot topics in international public opinion.
The White House, which originally wanted to turn the withdrawal into a political achievement project, couldn’t help it. From US President Biden to Secretary of State Blinken and Defense Department officials, they have come forward to shout and “public relations” one after another. In and out of the conversation, the same topic: We are right, and we are not defeated.
But no matter how you conceal or defend, the fact of “slap in the face” is there. Please see the report sent back by Xinhua News Agency reporters from Washington –
Biden: The past week proved that we were right
Slap in the face: What about the past 20 years?
On August 16, local time, Biden rushed back to the White House from Camp David to speak on the situation in Afghanistan. He still stressed that the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan was the right decision, but he had to admit that the situation in Afghanistan deteriorated faster than the US expected.

However, the most surprising thing is that Biden directly threw the blame for the situation in Afghanistan back to Afghanistan. The following sentences are probably the real focus of his speech: “What the hell is going on? The Afghan leader gave up and fled the country; the Afghan government army was defeated, and sometimes even failed without a fight. The changes in the situation in Afghanistan over the past week have just proved that it is right for us to decide to withdraw troops from Afghanistan. The US military cannot and should not, and stay in a war that the Afghan army does not want to fight, and will die in vain.”
I don’t know if Biden still remembers it, he said that the US side judges that the Taliban is “very unlikely” to regain power. What’s the result? For the United States, which has a strong intelligence system and has been in Afghanistan for 20 years, can “misjudgment” be used as an excuse?
I don’t know if Biden still remembers it, but he himself said that the US side would withdraw its troops “responsibly and cautiously”. What’s the result? US troops withdraw from Afghanistan Bagram airWhen the military base was ef=”https://comicmov.com/”>Komiks, he not only evacuated at night, but he did not even notify Afang in advance. Some media analyzed that the rapid withdrawal of the US military shocked the Afghan army and became the last blow to destroy their fighting will.
Biden said this time that even if the withdrawal operation is “hard and chaotic”, he would rather face all the accusations than leave the burden to the next US president. What a “responsible” president! BabaylanCinemaThe United States can withdraw it, but he said, who will pay for the pain left to the Afghan people? Over the past 20 years, more than 30,000 civilians in Afghanistan have been killed, bombed, or died in chaos due to war caused by the US military.
What the facts once again prove is not “the United States is invincible”, but a label that the United States cannot hide or pull off – “the world’s largest exporter of turmoil.”
Pentagon: The US military fired a shot back
Slap in the face: Who dominated Afghanistan for 20 years?
Since the hasty evacuation of the US military, the security situation and various chaos in Afghanistan, especially the fate of ordinary people being held back, have always been heartbreaking. Among them, some Afghans have worked for the United States and are worried about the political situation being retaliated after changes. In recent days, many people have flocked to Kabul Airport. Some people rushed onto the runway and chased the plane, and some people tried to squeeze onto the gangway. Several witnesses said that the US military has fired guns many times to shock the crowd. Related news and videos spread rapidly in international media and social media.

The Pentagon responded very quickly to media reports that the US military shot and killed two people at Kabul Airport.KomiksSpokesman Kirby took the initiative to “public relations” at the press conference that day, saying that the person who was killed by the US military was armed, and the other party fired the first shot.
Kirby also said that the US side provided funds to the Afghan army. href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Cinema equipment, training, suggestions and other support, but cannot buy Afghanistan’s own “leadership”.
Haha! Didn’t the United States “dominate” Afghanistan for 20 years?
Blinken: Kabul is different from Saigon
Slap in the face: even worse…
Including the American media, many media compared the “fall of Kabul” of the United States in the Vietnam War.

However, when asked by multiple media outletsCinema, US Secretary of State Blinken argued that the U.S. evacuation from Afghanistan, href=”https://comicmov.com/”>Komiks is “completely different” from the chaos when he evacuated from Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City).
As a result, the senior American journalist who participated in reporting the evacuation of the US military from Saigon that year, immediately “replaced the knife”: Yes, the love in Afghanistan is nowCinema.com/”>KomiksThe situation is obviously even worse!Cinema
Whether “the fall of KabuBabaylan‘s fall” or “Sakong moment”, the “America’s defeat” is his own fault. What’s more, they hurriedly retreated and left others in the quagmire of war.
Ultimately, solving problems with power and military means will only make more and more problems. Babaylan deserves serious reflection!
