Absence des administrations et Fama au centre du pays : Le cercle de Bankass dans la précarité

For american-fighting men and women, it will be a stain on this administration, forever. >> i dont disagree with that. >> i know that theres some political pushback. and theres some people on the trumpy fringe trying to make it, like, look at the people he wants to bring here. these are men and women. talk to our veterans. listen to our veterans, about what they did for this country and for our fighting men and women. and now, theyre going to be left there and they are going to be hunted down li...

>> first, i didnt describe we were doing a quote what went wrong review. i said well do a hot wash. well look at everything that happened in this entire operation from start to finish in the areas of improvement where we can do better, where we can find holes or weaknesses and plug them as we go forward and of course, we intend after weve had the opportunity to run that analysis to share that with people. yes. >> thank you, sir. youve noted that you have encouraged americans on the ground there ...

Men they lead about the state of afghanistan. do you think thats true? >> largely yes. i think the key point is the media is understandably obsessed with what is going on today, the catastrophe that has unfolded, but i think that focus distracts attention from the previous 20 years and so the story of how we got here which i think is the story that demands attention yes the biden administration certainly has failed in mismanaging this final withdrawal but by god, there is plenty of blame to go a...

The foreign relations committee. senator, thank you so much for your time. obviously a fast moving situation. i know that you have called what is unfolding in afghanistan a humanitarian crisis. mitch mcconnell as just saw there called the a colossal mistake. he is right here? is this one of the biden administrations first major mistakes? >> good to be with you. the major mistake was made in 2002 when president bush had an opportunity after we defeated the taliban to install a stable government i...

Dont judge this exit in a vacuum. that would be a mistake. its not as simple as biden botching the exit or trump pandering to you the public by foolishly making a deal with the taliban to exit. americas 20-year war, if you want to call it that, has stretched through four administrations. now, you want to deal with the instant situation, fine. we are here right now because biden carried forward with the trump deal made with the taliban to exit and didnt do it well. mike pompeo cut a deal with the...

Were seeing and what were hearing from our folks there happening on the ground but i think lets see its going to take time to figure out if it was a right move at the right time but no one can deny this has been through four administrations and, you know, he said he didnt want a fifth administration to inherit this. so before this happened, about 70% of americans and even folks who were enlisted, wanted us to get out of afghanistan. i think most people think it was the right move, the execution ...

Pandering to you the public by foolishly making a deal with the taliban to exit. americas 20-year war, if you want to call it that, has stretched through four administrations. now, you want to deal with the instant situation, fine. we are here right now because biden carried forward with the trump deal made with the taliban to exit and didnt do it well. mike pompeo cut a deal with the taliban to leave. no talk to him about biden cozying up with the bad guys. how you do it was always going to mat...

Coordinating with the taliban elements on the ground to ensure safe passage. we will continue to work that issue day by day until weve completed our mission. what was your first question? >> your reaction to the special inspector general report on afghan reconstruction that essentially said that the administrations were not prepared to come with concrete plans for the reconstruction? >> one of the findings of that report was that 20 years, hundreds of billions of dollars spent, huge number of fo...

And their family members who served two years on the ground as battlefield interpreters for our soldiers alongside our men and women in uniform. we have to get them out of there as well. it is something that we failed to do really over the course of three administrations now. we see what we can do when we get serious about it. you can put 600 people in a c-17 and fly them out if you have to. they can take two m1 tanks on a c-17. it could lift it. it is not the safest way and they didnt have rest...
