It’s been three years since the U.S. pulled out of Afghanistan. Has anyone in the current administration taken responsibility for the disaster that followed?
From The Federalist. [This week] is the third anniversary of the deadly American withdrawal from Afghanistan, when a suicide bombing at Hamid Karzai International Airport killed 13 service members in the most humiliating foreign policy failure of the Biden administration. Not one senior official resigned or was fired.
Connect with others in your state in prayer.
The same major members of the foreign policy team in the White House today, including the secretary of defense, the secretary of state, and the national security adviser, remain in their roles despite the debacle in Afghanistan — a debacle from which the president’s approval rating never recovered.
Former President Donald Trump commemorated the event with a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery, where he was joined by family members of some of the soldiers killed at the Abbey Gate attack in Kabul. …

President Trump honors the 13 heroes killed in the Harris-Biden botched Afghanistan withdrawal three years ago today 🇺🇸
— Donald J. Trump Posts From His Truth Social (@TrumpDailyPosts) August 26, 2024
The Taliban marked the anniversary this month with a military parade featuring millions (and perhaps billions) of dollars in U.S. gear, complete with helicopters and armored vehicles to display the triumph over what is supposed to be the world’s most powerful nation.
Trump highlighted the parade at a campaign rally as an illustration of Vice President Kamala Harris’ ineptitude in dealing with foreign affairs. Harris bragged on CNN three years ago about being the last person in the room to advise the commander-in-chief on the botched withdrawal. …
🚨Kamala Harris was behind the botched Afghanistan withdrawal that resulted in 13 dead American service members:
CNN: “Joe Biden just made a really big decision—Afghanistan—were you the last person in the room?”
Kamala: “Yes.”
CNN: “And you feel comfortable?”

“Two days ago,” Trump said in Pennsylvania earlier this month, “I watched a parade of the Taliban in Afghanistan. … They were showing all of our equipment they took from America. … [Kamala Harris] bragged about being the last person in the room that night, the night that they decided” to withdraw. …
According to a report in February, however, President Biden doesn’t think anyone in his administration did anything wrong.
“No one offered to resign,” Politico reporter Alexander Ward wrote in a book, “in large part because the president didn’t believe anyone had made a mistake.”
In fact, a report from the Biden administration last year blamed Trump for the botched withdrawal. …
A powerful story of rescue after the withdrawal is told in IFA’s Inspired Stories. Check it out HERE!

Sadly, too many Americans are low-information ‘voters’. Although I pray that President Trump wins the coming Presidential Election, there appears to be a large percentage of Americans who are mindless ‘DemocRats’ who acquiesce to their Marxist agenda.
Father, I pray that Your Holy Wisdom and the Fear Of The LORD come upon America and every ‘citizen’ that is drawing breath. The ‘Inflection Point’ that we are in is more critical than most realize. Help us study the theological premises that are before us, and acknowledge that we have capitulated to those who have our harm in their sights. Although we have the 1st Amendment, we MUST realize that when our nation was birthed- the ‘freedom of religion’ was for all aspects of the Christian Faith. Bring Your Great Awakening to our nation, that we may serve you in Spirit and in Truth… In Jesus’ Name, AMEN!

Not one man will ever be the answer for America. America as a whole has thrown out God, and because of that, she has become the Divided States of America. Our Churches, Pastors, and Christians have stood by and watched and refused to get involved or vote, forsaking their authoritative role given to us in Genesis 1:28 and Churches teaching people not to get involved with secular government when that is precisely what we, as Ecclesia, are to do: take dominion by taking back what was entrusted to us. Now, here we are.
Lord, forgive us, your people, for neglecting your command in Genesis and, in doing so, allowing our adversary to take what was never his to begin with. Lord, we as a nation have innocent blood on our hands of millions of unborn children sacrificed to the god of convenience (Baal). 2 Chronicles 7:14 states it is our responsibility to repent and turn from our laziness and disobedience, being more afraid of people than of You, Lord. We repent of our sins and confess them to You. We seek Your face, purpose, and will, and turn from relying on Our own understanding (Proverbs 3:5-6) to Your way because Your way is as high as heaven is from the earth over our ways. We are your hands and feet and Your mouth to this generation for such a time as this. Holy Spirit, shake our lives, clean our hands, “create in us your people a clean heart, and renew a steadfast spirit within us (Psalm 51:10) and give us the boldness to stand for You, Yeshua, and not be ashamed of You. Have Mercy on America; send warring angels to protect your chosen Donald Trump, JD Vance, and RFK Jr and their families, as well as all politicians that serve You from threats from the left. We declare and decree, “America Shall Be Saved” In the name of our King, Yeshua. (Jesus)
In the 1970s, the church was given a solemn warning about the consequences of not repenting (2 Chronicles 7:14). Regrettably, those who issued the warning were met with derision and scorn; I know because I was one of those who Warned and shared what Holy Spirit showed us. Now, we find ourselves in the very situation they foresaw. Please don’t repeat the past. We are His hands and feet. Put on the armor of God and stand for His righteousness; be the soldier you were created to be. Stop pointing to all the sin in America and start changing it God’s way! God holds His people, who are called by His name, responsible, and we are accountable to repent, seeking His face, and going forward on our knees in the name of Yeshua, our King, and He will heal our land!
That is a promise from GOD….
AMEN
Yes, Norleigh!
This is a clear sign of treason. From day 1. Treason, Cowardice, corruption degenerate perversion of Joe Bidens personal penchant for child rape. A pedophile. Necrophile. Beatialophile, jut 3 of the 10 perversions the DemocRAT PARTY WANTS TO NORMALZE.
DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.
The withdrawal brought shame and reproach on our nation, and yet those guilty do not even blush. I cried through the whole reading of this article, and remembered how I felt then, and still feel now. Our military personnel and citizens were not valued and honored, nor were the previous sacrifices in that conflict. I’m thankful that Donald Trump brought honor to those fallen soldiers in the commemoration. I pray that it brought comfort to their loved ones.
“Righteousness exalts a nation (or makes a nation great), but sin is a reproach to any people.” Prov. 14:34
“They should be ashamed of their detestable deeds, but they are not ashamed at all, they don’t know how to blush. So when others fall, they too will fall; when I punish them, they will stumble.” Jer. 8:12
I trust Your righteous judgements, Lord, and Your perfect timing.
Mary Beth, reading your comment reminded me of David’s prayer against his enemies. He concluded his prayer with “Cover their faces with shame so that they will seek Your name Yahweh….May they know that You alone —whose name is Yahweh —are the Most High over all the earth.” https://biblehub.com/hcsb/psalms/83.htm
To your words and his, Amen! May the Lord, the God of Israel, bless us according to His Word!
Father God, I pray the TRUTH of all that the Biden/Harris administration and military leaders did in Afghanistan will be heard and received by the citizens of these US. I pray that your JUSTICE will be released to all responsible parties. Father, I pray that your grace and mercy would be upon the families who suffered so great a loss in the USA and in the nation of Afghanistan. I pray that as only YOU can, you will somehow make a way for good to come forth from this horrific event and You will be glorified in Jesus’ name.
“I pray that as only YOU can…” Amen Patricia!
We all know that the WAY that Biden withdrew was horrible. He did not withdraw all of the materials and people first. Consequently, he left to the Afgans all of the U.S. technology that was left behind. How could he be so stupid? It is because he was and is fighting against the Lord. Sometimes, the Lord removes wisdom from wrongdoers.
We have sinned against you as a nation, Father, in this withdrawal. We did not properly honor our soldiers and we did not confess our wrongs and assess our weaknesses. Stir our leadership towards You that they may confess their sins and be unblinded from the haze that sin so easily beset us with. Clarify our sight and our heart, Abba. Oh for grace, may be trust You more and love You ever the more. May we repent of our sins so we have great capacity to love You. Help us to see the great chasm without You to be drawn ever the more closer to Your heart. We need You, we want more of You.
