U.S. officials announced that the infamous terrorist network known as al-Qaeda could re-form within the next couple of years in Afghanistan, following the pullout of U.S. troops.
Some al-Qaeda members have already been seen entering Afghanistan; Osama bin Laden’s former security chief Amin al Haq was captured on video entering Afghanistan in August.
This news sent critics of Biden’s chaotic withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan into a frenzy, only providing further evidence that his pullout strategy was poorly executed and yielded poor results.
After all, our whole reason for starting the 20-year war there was the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and our goal was to eradicate the terrorist group responsibly…
And now the Biden Administration’s timely end to the war will bring about a resurgence of al-Qaeda and the uncertain future of potential terrorist attacks.
Rep. Michael Waltz (R-Fla.) has declared that Biden’s decisions are only putting us on “The path for another 9/11.”
“We are on the road to future attacks, I think you’re going to see that in the next year with al-Qaida 3.0 partnered with Haqqani [Network] and the Taliban.”
The Taliban had control of Afghanistan when Osama Bin Laden and al-Qaeda launched the 9/11 attacks, crashing planes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
And now, after 20 years of war, fighting against the Taliban, and establishing some security in Afghanistan, it’s all been completely demolished in one fell swoop after the Taliban launched a counter-strike following the US withdrawal.
Several officials are concerned that the takeover of the Taliban means that Afghanistan will once again become a “safe haven” for terrorist groups, and could eventually lead to another 9/11 style attack on the US.
Former CIA Director and Secretary of State Leon Panetta also spoke about the disastrous path America has put itself on. Panetta gave us a warning, calling attention to the way history seems to be repeating itself.
“The Taliban taking over Afghanistan is pretty much the same Taliban that controlled Afghanistan on 9/11. It’s clear to me that they’re going to continue to support al-Qaeda, and I think they will plan additional attacks on our country, as well as elsewhere.”
The future is uncertain, but one thing is for sure, and it’s that the path America is set on now is likely going to result in future wars and terrorist attacks.
In the end, the 20-year war resulted in few measurable accomplishments, prolonging the inevitable and bringing us right back to where we started.
To make matters worse, our military is more focused on Critical Race Theory, and “diversifying” troops than they are investing in training and equipment to actually pose a threat against any potential enemies.
It’s only a matter of time before a great and powerful nation crumbles by the hands of our long-time rivals…
