Biden Is A F***ing Disgrace, And Must Resign | Ep. 1328

Policy Criticism

In this episode, Ben Shapiro delivers a scathing critique of President Joe Biden's decision to withdraw from Afghanistan, labeling it as a catastrophic failure. He argues that Biden's approach was fundamentally flawed, leading to predictable chaos and disaster. Shapiro contends that Biden's justification for the withdrawal lacks evidence and that the president's decision-making is both incompetent and dishonorable 1.

This president is a joke. This policy was a joke.

--- Ben Shapiro

He further criticizes the administration's failure to secure key strategic locations, such as Bagram Air Base, which he believes exacerbated the crisis 2 3.

   

Consequences

Shapiro highlights the dire consequences of the withdrawal, including the tragic loss of American and Afghan lives. He describes the situation as one of the worst days in modern American foreign policy, with the Taliban gaining control and ISIS exploiting the chaos 4. The bravery of American service members is contrasted with the administration's perceived incompetence, as Shapiro calls the policy immoral and disastrous 5.

The bravery of the American service members who have put themselves in harm's way under these restrictions is awe-inspiring.

--- Ben Shapiro

He criticizes Biden's excuses and the lack of a strong response to the attacks, arguing that the president's actions have left many vulnerable 6.

   

Allies' Role

The role of allies and the U.S.'s reliance on the Taliban for security are scrutinized by Shapiro. He condemns the decision to provide the Taliban with a list of American citizens and Afghan allies, viewing it as a betrayal and a grave security risk 7. Shapiro argues that this action has endangered countless lives and reflects a broader failure in U.S. foreign policy.

We gave them a list, not just of Americans, but of Afghan allies and green card holders who we are about to abandon in Afghanistan.

--- Ben Shapiro

He also highlights the vast amount of military equipment left behind, which now bolsters the Taliban's capabilities, further complicating the geopolitical landscape 8.
