Democrats condemn deadly Kabul blasts as Republicans push Biden to retake Bagram Air Base

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Members of Congress swiftly reacted to the explosions near the Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul on Thursday, which killed at least 12 US service members and 60 Afghan civilians.

Top Democrats denounced the deadly blasts and said efforts to evacuate Americans and Afghans who assisted the US in the 20-year War in Afghanistan will continue.

"I strongly condemn this act of terrorism and it must be clear to the world that the terrorists who perpetrated this will be sought and brought to justice," Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said in a statement. US officials believe the attacks were carried out by ISIS-K, the Islamic State's affiliate in Afghanistan and sworn enemy of the Taliban.

"I will continue to monitor the situation in Kabul and our evacuation efforts," Schumer added.

1. Make it an all out war again, restart this over?

This is all disaster politics, if we try to rewind what that Pig Trump has wrought the GOP is just going to play it for it is worth..

They don't give half a dead rat about Afghans or even our military. They are expendable if they can make political bank at home.

6. Republicans know that more dead Americans in Afghanistan will work to their political advantage.

And they are selfish enough to support that.

7. IMHO... Bagram should have been the last American possession to be evacuated.

It was secure. Kabul is not.

Run a transport corridor from Kabul to Bagram, protected by air power...
