President Joe Biden has decided to withdraw U.S. troops from Afghanistan by Sept. 11, 2021, 20 years to the day after al Qaeda's attacks triggered America's longest war, but several months after a May 1 deadline negotiated by the Trump administration.
The decision on a deadline to remove the final 2,500 U.S. forces would finally put an end to the war – amid questions about how much stability and security the U.S. would leave behind amid a fragile government that the military has helped prop up in Kabul.
However, the withdrawal would be based on certain security and human rights guarantees, the sources told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity ahead of the formalization of the decision. The sources did not provide further details.

WNU Editor: The Taliban are not going to accept this. They will see this as a delaying tactic.

This withdrawal will cut the income of many over there. I hope the press keeps abreast of things over there after we leave. I'll enjoy the tales of woe from those whose checks were corruptly earned.
For Trumpies, Biden damned if he withdraws and damned if he does not
So Orangeman bad for wanting leave in May, but leaving 4 months later is good.
We have compelling national interests to bein Afghanistan. There are strategic pluses and minuses to being Afghanistan. Precious metals is not one of them. We dump precious metals onto the tailing piles all the time. One such pile was in the news with liberals giving birth to full sized Holsteins. Don't ask. IMO the minuses outweigh the pluses and especially so, since we do not enunciate the pluses or have a road map to get there.
Besides Sec Def Waterboy has more pressing concerns such as getting rid of all white people, I mean all extremists from the military.
Trump authorized National Guard to be in Washington DC to protect everyone. Nancy Pelosi, idiot China money McConnell, and Mayor Bow-wow declined to use them.
Mayor Bowser only wanted the National Guard to direct Traffic. Trump trying to be bi=partisan let the devious, conniving Bowser have her way.
Four people died that day. Two died of heart attack/stroke. One died of an overdose. The last person, who was unarmed and had skittles in her pocket, was shot in the neck by a federal cop.
Sicknick died that night after leaving work. He talk to his brother after leaving work. No one has been charged, arraigned or convicted of his death. It has been a quarter of a year and the mystery of Sicknick's death ranks yup there with UFO's and the Bermuda Triangle and that is the way the Deep State likes it.
You 5:!8 are a troll, foreign or domestic it matters not.
PS the Cops brought guns and used guns. Not one protester at the capital brought a gun much less used one.
Loyalty oaths, you love them don't you Lapides.
