Commentary: New Details Emerge of Afghanistan Chaos

New testimony from those who witnessed firsthand the confusion and chaos of the Afghanistan withdrawal further contradicts President Biden’s assertion that the hurried and violent end to the longest war in American history was an “extraordinary success.”

In a transcribed interview before the House Foreign Affairs Committee, former Foreign Service officer Samuel Aronson said the very opposite in living, harrowing color. “Let me be clear,” he told lawmakers behind closed doors, “I cannot call this evacuation a success.”

    Remember, democrats have different objectives than HUMANS.

  7. If you define chaos as success, then they were correct about the outcome. Remember Bill's statement when accused of perjury: It depends on what the meaning of "is" is.
