“Joe Biden: UK and allies had choice to remain in Afghanistan.
US president hits back at criticism as parents pass their children to soldiers at Kabul airport amid worsening chaos.
Joe Biden has hit back at the UK and Nato allies, claiming they “had a choice” to stay in Afghanistan and could have done so despite the United States pulling out of the country.
The US president has faced a torrent of criticism from ministers and MPs over the botched withdrawal, which has left US and British officials scrambling to get their citizens out of the country after the Taliban seized power.
His suggestion appeared to contradict the British position that it could not carry on the mission without America. Boris Johnson told Parliament on Wednesday that the West could not continue in Afghanistan without US support and air power. CNA
The US withdrawal from Afghanistan was done without consultation with its allies and the latter were left in a lurch. When the US invaded Afghanistan, presumably it must have invited the European allies to go along, a coalition of the willing. The European allies were eager beaver, given a chance to beat up Muslim tribesmen in the mountains of Afghanistan with very little chances of being hit back. And with the colossal military might of the American Empire, they were there for a party, a sort of hunting mission to practice and hone their skills in killing tribesmen.
It must come as a rude surprise that the Americans unilaterally decided to runaway without consulting them and have a coordinated plan to retreat from Afghanistan. And with the big gangsters out of the way, the little monkeys would become easy targets for the Taliban. They would not stand a chance without the big military umbrella of the Americans.
Now they started to panic. And it is no consolation for Biden to say the allied troops have a choice to stay on. What a thoughtless and disgusting reply by Biden. These little white monkeys would be eaten up by the Taliban for breakfast if left on their own. They were there hanging on the coat tails of the Americans and to say they could stay on, it is their choice, is very rude and harsh.
Biden forgot that the little monkeys were persuaded to go along in this killing mission, under the coercion of the Americans, you are with us or against us. Now the Americans are saying, you die your business, we are getting out and you do what you want, to stay or to live.
What a great friend the Americans are. Luckily no silly Asean country is caught in this stupid mess and could not get out in time, and in harm's way. Without the American military might, the rest of the allies are just little monkeys joining the fray, having a little fun. Left on their own, they will surely die...in the hands of the Taliban and tribesmen.

No ASEAN countries involved in the US Afghanistan fiasco?
Singapore had sent a team to get itself dirty with the US coagulated crooks of the willing, participating as a part of the ISAF.
Just two days ago, Singapore PM even offered to sent a big military plane to help in the chaotic last minute frantic evacuation of the Afghan traitors out of Kabul Airport.
Singapore has been actively involved!
The expected pull out was already known months ago, in May 2021, and Joe Biden does have a point to say that since the Brits and other allies knew of the withdrawal, they were at liberty to extricate their own people, which they did not. This is probably a sticking point for argument, but the blame is now solely on Biden and the USA alone. Would Bojo and others have to share the blame? Of course they do!
To save their own skin, these little monkeys are ganging up now on Joe.
Hey Joe, how does it feel to have all the monkeys ganging up against you, just like Trump and you getting the monkeys to go after China, with the accusation that Wuhan was the source of the COVID19? Karma works like a charm!
Alamak, netizens not happy with Seah Kian Peng's facebook comment of Kamala.
"US has no permanent friend or enemies, just interest" Henry Kissinger. Unfortinnately, none of these coalition of the willing heeded his advice.
The latest to join the US bandwagon, peanut Lithuania against China over Taiwan. When China retaliated with diplomatic measures and trade, Blinken could only offer a word of support.
Understand Vietnam also is distancing themselves from taking USA's side in countering China. Logically, how could a country so devastated by the USA be asked to join them in confronting someone else, unlike the Japs.
Sure, the USA has no permanent friends or enemies. They use one side against the other for their selfish gains, both in war and in peace. Do not be mistaken that they care about countries around the South China Sea quarrelling with China over territorial claims and they are fighting for justice. Far from it.
Two of the most cruel and brutal countries, Japan conducted a sneak attack at Pearl Harbour, killing thousands of Americans. USA replied with 2 atom bombs killing a tens of thousands of Japanese civilians, women and children.
Today they are sleeping together in the same bed. But deep inside, both are guarding against each other and trying to figure out what evil plans the other is brooding.
The USA trying very hard to push the Japanese to start a war with China. The Japanese trying hard to snook the Americans to start a war with China.
Both hoping that the other will self destruct with China in a war.
The Asean leaders have wisen up, woke up, and would not want to be pawns of big powers, to be used by big powers to get into a fight and die for the big powers.
Let the big powers fight among themselves. Why should Asean want to be involved and become minced meat?
Was The Use Of Nuclear Bombs In A Sneaky Surprise Attack by the US On Japan Justified?
In 1945, the US prepared for an invasion of Japan. It was preceded by a substantially long period of continuous conventional and fire-bombing campaign that destroyed, devastated or obliterated at least 67 Japanese cities.
The war in Europe concluded when Germany surrendered on 8 May 1945, and the full attention of the US and its Axis of Evils was focused onto the Pacific War.
By July 1945, the US' Manhattan Project had produced two types of atomic bombs:
1 Fat Man - a plutonium implosion-type nuclear weapon.
2. Little Boy - an enriched uranium gun-type fission weapon.
The 509th Composite Group of the US Air Force was trained and equipped with the specialized Silverplate version of the Boeing B-29 Super-fortress, and deployed to Tinian in the Mariana Islands.
The US gave Japan an ultimatum. It demanded for the unconditional surrender of the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces on 26 Jul 1945. The alternative being "prompt and utter destruction".
Japan ignored the ultimatum.
The consent of the United Kingdom was obtained for the bombing, as was required by the Quebec Agreement, and orders were issued on 25 July for atomic bombs to be used against Hiroshima, Kokura, Niigata, and Nagasaki. These targets were chosen because they were large urban areas that also held militarily significant facilities.
On 6 August, the 'Little Boy' was dropped on Hiroshima. The Japanese Prime Minister Suzuki reiterated the Japanese government's commitment to ignore the US' demands and to fight on.
Three days later, the 'Fat Man' was dropped on Nagasaki.
Over the next two to four months, the effects of the two atomic bombings killed about 146,000 people in Hiroshima and about 80,000 people in Nagasaki. At least half of those numbers were killed immediately on Day One.
For many months afterward, large numbers of people continued to die from the effects of burns, injuries and radiation sickness, compounded by illness and malnutrition. Although Hiroshima had a big military garrison, most of the dead were civilians. In total, about 2 million people had perished.
Even until today, 76 years later, the residual effects of the two bombs continue in future generations of the Japanese people.
Japan surrendered to the US on 15 August, six days after the Soviet Union's declaration of war on Japan, and after the bombing of Nagasaki.
The Japanese government surrendered unconditionally to the US on 2 September 1945, ending World war 2 .
Scholars have extensively studied the effects of the bombings and until today there is still much debate concerning the ethical and legal justifications for the bombings.
Supporters believe that the atomic bombings were necessary to bring a swift end to the war with minimal casualties, while critics argue that the Japanese government could have been brought to surrender through other means, while highlighting the moral and ethical implications of nuclear weapons and the deaths caused to civilians, especially innocent children and old folks.
Was the US justified to employ Nuclear Weapons in a surprise attack on Japan, or any country for that matter? What do you think?
LIPS At Your Service.
The USA was trying to beat the Soviet Union in the nuclear race and Japan was the unlucky testing ground. The right time, the right occasion and the right place for the USA to show they are ahead of the Soviet Union in the nuclear bomb race. It was also a pay back for the sneak attack on Pearl Harbour.
Many believe it was the Soviet Union's entry into the war against Japan that caused the Japs to surrender as they know the inevitable and not the bombing. However, the credit written in history must go to the USA. Right?
Well, they said as they said and we have to take what they said. If Pluto was a planet, then not a planet, then becomes a dwarf planet, who can argue with that?

I think this is a question that has been flogged to donkey death over the past decades.
