Joe Biden Speaks On Deadly Afghan Attack

[Gunny]

OAN Newsroom
UPDATED 4:33PM PT – Thursday, August 26, 2021Joe Biden ordered strikes on ISIS after 13 U.S. service members were killed following an explosion in Kabul. Speaking from the White House on Thursday, Biden said the fallen soldiers were heroes and the “backbone of America.”
Biden said to those who carried out the attacks or wished America harm, the U.S. would not forgive nor forget. He went on to say, “we will hunt you down and make you pay” as he asserted these terrorists would not win.
“We will not let them stop our mission we will continue the evacuation. I’ve also ordered my commander to develop operational plans to strike ISIS-K assets, leadership and facilities,” he stated. “We will respond with force and precision at our time, at the place we choose and at the moment of our choosing.”


General Kenneth McKenzie also announced 14 more U.S. service members were injured as well as a number of Afghan civilians. The commander confirmed there were two suicide bombers: one at Abbey Gate and the second one in the vicinity of the Barron Hotel.
General McKenzie revealed there continues to be extremely active threats against the airport. He also said there are no plans to send more American troops to Kabul amid the attack, stating “we have the forces we need to protect ourselves there.”
Meanwhile, the CIA is conducting covert operations outside of the Kabul airport to extract U.S. citizens from Afghanistan. General McKenzie reported the U.S. has been working with the Taliban to secure the area and expand the security perimeter.
“We’ve identified some roads that we would like for them to close. They’ve identified that they will be willing to close those roads because we assessed the threat of a suicide-born vehicle threat is high right now,” he explained. “We want to reduce the possibility of one of those vehicles getting close so we’re actually moving very aggressively to do that.”
The extractions come as Joe Biden’s August 31 deadline to be out of the country approaches. The Taliban has threatened a response if provoked by a missed deadline.


A recent report from the White house gave an update on the number of evacuees rescued from Afghanistan in the last 24-hours. As of Thursday morning, an official confirmed approximately 14,000 people were cleared out of the region in that time frame. Seventeen U.S. military flights carried roughly 5,000 evacuees out of Kabul while 74 coalition flights carried around 8,300 people.
The U.S. now says nearly 96,000 people have been evacuated since August 14, bringing the total to over 101,000 people since the end of July. Meanwhile, a group of House members have called on Biden to extend the timeline of U.S. troops stationed in Afghanistan.
In the meantime, Americans are being asked to be aware of their surroundings at all times. Several nations are echoing warnings regarding the security situation around the airport. Both Australia and the U.K. have urged people in the area to move away from the airport due to terror threats.
Intelligence reports have suggested and imminent threat from Islamic State militants. NATO has strongly urged this threat to be taken seriously. This comes as thousands of Afghan nationals have continued to rush the area in hopes of getting out.
The Taliban has condemned the bombings, allegedly carried out by ISIS-K, and blamed the U.S. military for not securing an area they are responsible for. Meanwhile, the White House said Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been briefed on the situation. The blasts come as foreign officials warned an “imminent lethal threat” of a suicide attack on the airport was present.

Any sort of speech he can give is nothing when compared to the imagery of what's happening on the ground in Afg. A person can be good but an utter failure when it comes to the job that they have.

A remarkable commendation for Sleepy -- leader of one of the main US Crime Families and an almost certain Chicom . There is no way Obummer would have ever

accepted a non Chicom as his number two ---- and like all good Communists they all love the crinkle of bank notes .

Even in dotage he has almost certainly managed to cut a deal to save his life --- played the imbecile as a short term puppet for his masters .

Jimmy Carter imo fit that description. Biden does not, which has become crystal clear even to honest Democrats. 'That was 4 or 5 days ago...' 'You'll be my first call...'

Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results...NOW THAT'S INSANE.

[MtnBiker]

So, after Joe with personal intensity, goodness and effectiveness spoke about the Afghanistan attack, who exactly gave him a list and instructed him to take the first question from Kelly O'Donnell? Because obviously an effective president is instructed on how to preform. Nato allies and foreign adversaries are certainly impressed with such effectiveness. The personal intensity touch with bowing his head in confusion, err I mean a moment of prayer was especially an effective display.

Because thousands died under trump's watch? Because I must have missed those news stories. I think the real problem for your thinking is all of the things that they said were going to happen under trump are actually happening under biden. Food for thought there bud.

[JakeStarkey]

No one said "thousands died under trump's watch", bud, so stop the straw man.

They would have been dead if it was Trump's people doing the evac under Trump's supervision and authority.

Biden, under incredibly difficult conditions that would have crumpled Trump immediately, is doing a magnificent job.

Trump's supporters are simply no better than is he. Their comments are not for serious consideration.

Educate yourself.

Biden tossed away Trump's plan, like everything else Trump did, and the bumbling senile fool now owns this 100%.

Giving away Bagram that was a monumental bit of sheer stupidity, going against every military and intel advisor's assessments. Two functional runways that was easily defended in favor of giving it to the terrorists & then trying to evacuate everyone from the Kabul airport that's surrounded by buildings loaded with civilians and the ever-present terrorists hiding amongst them.

I won't be surprised to see small arms fire taking shots at C-17s and other transports, God forbid that they start lobbing mortars at those giant aluminum gas cans with 400+ souls on board.

Pulling the military BEFORE everyone had been pulled was stunning in it's stupidity. Again, going against his military advisors - such as they are, being more concerned with being woke than actually winning wars anymore - and actually began begging the terrorists to allow safe passage. It's mind blowing.

Then the bumbling ship of fools actally sent complete lists - dubbed "Kill Lists" by any thinking observer - to the Taliban, of Americans, Allies and Afghans who have been helping the USA in our endeavors there. They sent them the list and said to please allow them to travel to the airport for evacuation. Brilliant.

Biometric data of our Afghani helpers were captured, along with their fingerprints and iris scanners to easily identify and kill them.

Billions of State-of-the-Art military hardware. The Taliban actually have more Blackhawks under their control than any of our allies. Upgraded Armored Humvees. Drones. Attack Jets. Recon Jets.


That's just Afghanistan. I've got a laundry list of outright catastrophic failures from this particular bunch of ass clowns populating this Administration. It only took him what, 8 months to ruin this country and destabilize the world? And he's not done.

Obama once famously quipped : "Don't underestimate Joe's ability to fuck things up." That's the only thing I'm aware of that he was honest about, but he was right on the mark with that one.

No, Jake, even CNN is attacking this imbecile. And you own this, just as much as the senile buffoon does because you voted for him.

Trump's failings are being corrected one by one, and the more difficult the corrections the deeper Trump's errors were made.

They are of course sworn enemies . Notably, Islamic State affiliates ISIS-K are reportedly the sworn enemy of the Taliban — a fact which makes McMaster's assertion all the more stupid.

McMaster is correct, you are not. I do think too many GOP now will resist Trump, either voting for third party or D or not voting at all.

The Trump supporters, the sane ones (like some of you here), see it all slipping away and are yelling and screaming. The insane ones (like some of you here) cannot see the forest for the trees, and are lost in the woods.

Support of Biden policies is not good... it is flailing and failing to use your own words.

I'd rather have Trumpism any day than be all up in Biden's butt Starkey. I suppose you endorse and support our energy dependence on foreign oil, our open borders (where terrorists and cartel are surging), our failing economy, our "woke" military, our loss of our constitutional rights among other horrific moves Biden has made? If so, you're more of an idiot than you've already proven.

As a former military wife I do understand there's a right way and a wrong way to withdraw from a war. Biden's stupidity is getting our military killed because it is, in fact, an evacuation as opposed to an orderly wittdrawal.
