Former Afghan President Mohammad Ashraf Ghani on Wednesday justified his departure from Kabul on August 15 when Taliban forces encircled the capital. Calling the decision to flee the country as the toughest of his life, Ghani said that he left the capital city on the advice of the presidential palace security. The former president, however, did not utter a word on the Taliban's new government.

"I left at the urging of the palace security who advised me that to remain risked setting off the same horrific street-to-street fighting the city had suffered during the Civil War of the 1990s. It was the only way to keep the guns silent and save Kabul and its six million citizens."

What is a "blantant like" ?

Sets the record straight? Everything the Biden White House says has to be checked, double checked and triple checked. President Dementia cannot tell the truth about what a tornado is call much less anything else.

Funny, but the news article does not mention Biden, but you are defending him. Maybe you just have a thing for old men, who can't remember what was done to them? I suggest you create a Tinder profile.
