john avalon with a reality check. there have been folks on the left and right who wanted to see america leave afghanistan after 20 years. they asked, what s the worst that could happen? we now know the answer. of the taliban back in control of the country with its medieval morality. and the worst yet to come. women and girls denied basic human rights. horrific memories of soccer field executions, attempt to flee the country before it s too late. all just days before the 20th anniversary of 9/11. trips to bagram air base to support the afghan army, at least until the taliban complied with the terms of the peace deal could have avoided this at least for a time. now, that is president joe biden s road not traveled. he inherited america s longest war, but the implosion occurred on his watch. but don t even begin to believe the republican effort to whitewash history and score partisan points over the fall of afghanistan. you know, like the rnc s attempt
