Biden’s Chaotic Withdrawal from Afghanistan Is Complete

David Rohde: Military officers and diplomants in Afghanistan are disgusted by how our withdrawal has been handled, and are so desperate to help US allies that they're turning to journalists to vent, hoping that public pressure can achieve results where the US government has failed.

For months, refugee organizations and military officials had urged the Administration to begin evacuating Afghans who had backed the U.S. effort. The White House demurred, worried that such a move would signal a lack of faith in the Afghan government. As a result, the operation, crammed into the span of a few weeks, was unnecessarily rushed and poorly planned. An estimated two hundred thousand Afghans who were unable to get out now face retaliation from the Taliban. To many critics inside and outside of government, the conflict appears to be ending as it began—with individual acts of courage carried out amid a chaotic, politically driven U.S. government response. “We’re heroic as individuals,” a former national-security official said. “We don’t get heroic as a nation.”
