If a army of 75.000 religious nut cases decided to attack we in England they would not get as far as the first motor way service station , so how as that rag tag illiterate mob managed to take over 40 million people without a fight . The whole story stinks of pre planning by the departing occupiers .

Biden does seem to have a soft-spot for terrorists... what with his IRA sympathies.

This seems a bit over-elaborate as a theory. Having once been in a Little Chef, the tendency to avoid further 'exposure' seems entirely rational.

According to the three latest polls - RealClear Politics.

 

Job Approval - Joe Biden

 

NPR/PBS/Marist

Approve 43  Disapprove 51

 

Emerson

Approve 46  Disapprove 47

 

Rasmussen

Approve 42  Disapprove 56

 

Joe's average approval rating is now below that of OrangeManBad, at the same point of his first term.

 

What happened?

 

They have no excuses.

 

With the Democrats in Charge of both House of Congress, and the White House, we should be seeing the beautiful future they promised, starting to unfold in front of our very eyes!

 

Lol

The invasion of this country by religious nutcases started decades ago but it's being done by stealth. We have over 3 million Muslims in this country imposing their culture  instead of integrating and assimilating, and our capital city has a Muslim mayor. We used to fight off foreign invaders but now we give them a free taxi service into Kent and put them up in four star hotels.

Some may or may not be nut cases, but i doubt that the bulk of them are. They do seem to be fairly religeous though it's hard to know for certain, and i imagine the bulk aren't illiterate either.  They seem to be fairly well organised and have some sort of coherent organisational structure so rag tag and mob don't seem to be appropriate descriptions for them either. 

 

There are various groups opposing the Taliban and their control over the country is my no means complete.  Most of these opposing groups aren't a great deal better than  the Taliban and many are significantly worse. 

 

The Afghan army may not have put up much of a fight but that may not be as surprising as it seems based on the report linked to below. 

 

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/aug/15/a-tale-of-two-armies-why-afghan-forces-proved-no-match-for-the-taliban

 

To go back to Biden, then he inherited a deal which his predecessor made. He was faced with the choice of breaking America's word, I doubt many in Afghanisatan would appreciate the distinction between his and Trump's word. In addition, and doing so would almost certainly have resulted in an increase in attacks against all the people in Afghanistan I believe withdrawl was one of his campaign promises. 

 

One of the things, we need to know in order to judge the witthdrawl but I doubt we will ever find out is just how much the western governments knew about the shakiness of the the state and the reality on the ground.

Well if a gang of blokes rode into our Town rocket launchers strapped across their  chests  and on the back of a builders truck I would defiantly say , "who are this band of nut cases ".

Nope:

Bidens average approval rating is over 8 points higher than Trump at the same point of his first term.

According to Nate Silver and his magic al gore-rythms.

 

The guy who applies his own arbitrary and subjective  "analysis" of the major polls out there.

 

He just adds another personal level of bias, to the already biased polls.

 

He's right, until he is wrong.

"Final Election Update: There’s A Wide Range Of Outcomes, And Most Of Them Come Up Clinton

Throughout the election, our forecast models have consistently come to two conclusions. First, that Hillary Clinton was more likely than not to become the next president. And second, that the range of possible Electoral College outcomes — including the chance of a Donald Trump victory, but also a Clinton landslide that could see her winning states such as Arizona — was comparatively wide......

 

.....That remains our outlook today in our final forecast of the year. Clinton is a 71 percent favorite to win the election according to our polls-only model and a 72 percent favorite according to our polls-plus model. (The models are essentially the same at this point, so they show about the same forecast.) This reflects a meaningful improvement for Clinton in the past 48 hours as the news cycle has taken a final half-twist in her favor. Her chances have increased from about 65 percent.

 

Nonetheless, Clinton is probably going to win, and she could win by a big margin".

 

Sure, Nate, sure!

Did you proofread your own post?

 

London having a Muslim mayor is a perfect example of Muslims integrating into society.
