It has been over a month since the United States left Afghanistan and left it in a mess.
We left Afghanistan on August 31, 2021.
The departure of the United States - endorsed by President Joe Biden - has many long due adverse ramifications - which his advisors - failed to impress on President Joe Biden and his minions. Mostly simple - ignorant folks.
One of them is Vice-President Kamala Harris, who has no clue - about International Politics and less about cultural competency.
No nation - worth the salt - invades a country - stays there for 20 plus years - and leaves it without a sound exit plan.
Leaving behind American citizens, our NATO allies, Afghan essential workers - translators, trained advisors, and others - without a vetted blueprint and an exit plan - that works - paying no attention to long-term - adverse impacts.
The United States from day one did not have a viable and sustainable policy to better the Afghan people - we invaded Afghanistan - hoping to wipe out the Taliban and Al-Queda.
After 20 years, the paradox is that the Taliban forced a Superpower out without firing a shot - on their terms - and an agreement signed by Donald Trump and endorsed by President Joe Biden.
Here is the agreement - the dumbest agreement - anyone would sign - that was initiated by an egoistical maniac Donald Trump:

Innocent children in Afghanistan are suffering - we must help them on a war-footing - they did nothing wrong - the United States created a mess - and must be responsible for crimes against humanity.
The United States has this habit - invade a country and leave it in a mess - Iraq is in a mess - rampant chaos - and did we find any weapons of mass destruction?
Remember, Iraq is where the Babylonian Civilization began - the Father of all Nation - was born in the area we now call Iraq.
In the war against Iran - before we invaded Iraq - we helped Iraq fight the Iranians. Millions of Iranians died - and Iraq, with our help - had responsibility for this mess.
Today Iraq has no running water, no electricity that can be relied upon, sewer drains that carry feces and cause all sorts of ailments and chronic diseases.
Roads full of potholes - and an ever failing infrastructure - with serious problems when it comes to food security.
We deprive human beings of quality of life issues - has our United States Main Media - done a needs assessment - to educate the American people - that war brings no gain but endless problems?
Or do we listen to the Main Media and swallow the bitter pill of ignorance - and complain about our inherent - foolishness?
It is the same with Libya - we went into Libya and messed it up.
This horse grazes, and goats, cows, and more - the countryside has a surge of Covid-19 pandemic, food insecurity, hostile Taliban who treat the simple, decent, hardworking people with disdain -, and there is more - does the United States - have a conscience to address these sordid issues - left overlooked over - who will come to the rescue of those innocent - who once lived happily - had sufficient - even though they were poor.
Secretary of State Department - has failed to address the backlog - linked to Afghan visas - and if we did not have a plan - we must now visit it - and have a sound blueprint that works.
More by allowing the Afghans who have skills and are educated - - contribute to Society - with possibilities that come with a Green Card.
Provide the Afghans - sound Health benefits, Education, decent housing, childcare - more catering to the Afghans women and children.
The United States must do that on a War Footing - and stop pussyfooting around.
