Longterm policy which is heAvy on our heArts todAy. But wAs curious As i sometimes get to do where you were At so thAnk you for your thoughts <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> good to see you. Good to see you my friend. AppreciAte it. This is <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/the-beAt'>The BeAtA> with Ari melber. We continue our coverAge on whAt is undeniAbly A historic <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> sAd dAy. Here is how the president just put it. My fellow AmericAns, the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/wAr-in-AfghAnistAn'>WAr In AfghAnistAnA> is now over. Im the fourth president who hAs fAced the issue of whether <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> when to end this wAr. I believe this is the right decision. A wise decision. And the best decision for AmericA. ThAt is how president biden mArked <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/the-end'>The EndA>, todAy, to AmericAs longest wAr. WhAt begAn At <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/operAtion-enduring-freedom'>OperAtion Enduring FreedomA> 20 yeArs Ago could be viewed <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> meAsured in so mAny different wAys. From the mAny lives lost, on both sides of A wArs ArbitrAry lines between the united stAtes <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/old-AfghAnistAn'>Old AfghAnistAnA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the new AfghAnistAn. You could Also meAsure it by the tremendous finAnciAl cost, indeed we hAve A speciAl look At thAt issue lAter on in tonights speciAl coverAge. Or you could meAsure it by how it is ending. These iconic photogrAphs, becAuse we hAve the imAges of whAt it wAs, of whAt it is, of how hAd ends. On the the left. Youre looking At whAt is ActuAlly the very lAst AmericAn soldier to leAve AfghAnistAn As pArt of this 20yeAr wAr. And on the right youre looking At the lAst u. S. MilitAry AircrAft depArting in thAt solitAry fAshion from kAbuls Airport. ThAt wAs tAken just yesterdAy. The end, As we were just discussing with our colleAgue nicolle, wAs not eAsy nor smooth. MAny experts <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> critics wArned thAt would be the likely scenArio the wAy it is going lAst week. TodAy the president outlined how to extrAct the remAining 1 or 200 individuAls from the united stAtes who Are still in AfghAnistAn. And for those remAining AmericAns, there is no deAdline. We remAin committed to get them out if they wAnt to come out. The tAlibAn hAs mAde public commitments, broAdcAst on television, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> rAdio Across AfghAnistAn on <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/sAfe-pAssAge'>SAfe PAssAgeA> for Anyone wAnting to leAve including those who worked Alongside AmericAns. We dont tAke them by their word Alone. But by their Actions. And we hAve leverAge to mAke sure those commitments Are met. New reports Also detAiling the kind of secret deAls it tAkes to get out. They bAsicAlly hAd An AArrAngement to get them out <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the tAlibAn helping. It is the kind of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/necessity-pAct'>Necessity PActA> thAt you need in these situAtions <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> AmericAn foes, our AmericAn foes, the tAlibAn helped tAke people to the Airport in intervAls <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> securing the roAds leAding up to the gAtes. Im referring to whAt the tAlibAn did to help the u. S. There. A grim reminder of whAt necessity cAn indeed require in the field while <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/todAy-president'>TodAy PresidentA> biden Also turned his focus in his speech on ending A wAr with one enemy, to Another locAl enemy. To isisk, we Are not done with you yet. To those who wish AmericA hArm, to those who engAge in terrorism AgAinst us or our Allies, know this. The united stAtes will never rest. We will not forgive, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> we will not forget. Well hunt you down to <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/the-end'>The EndA>s of the eArth <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> we will you will pAy the ultimAte price. Think About whAt were heAring in thAt speech there. This is not reAlly A criticism, but it is An observAtion <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> i wAnt to be sort of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/strAight-up'>StrAight UpA> with you As we live through these times together. If this were A film, perhAps deAling with the Adventures of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/militAry-power'>MilitAry PowerA> thAt is sometimes over used or overextended, it would seem heAvy h<A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA>ed to show thAt superpower mAking these hAwkish threAts AgAinst yet Another enemy on the one dAy devoted to drAwl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> ending A wAr. This is not A fimm <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> not A drill <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> we All know whAt we just lived there. It is <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/reAl-life'>ReAl LifeA> with reAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/foreign-policy'>Foreign PolicyA> trAdeoffs <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> with pressure on the the united stAtes to underst<A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA>Ably Act <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> retAliAte for thAt sAvAge AttAck on u. S. Troops who, As mAny hAve mentioned <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> ill mention AgAin, u. S. Troops who were in the middle of An exit. Not At thAt moment trying to extend or AttAck. But trying to leAve <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> Also trying to sAve some other peoples lives As they finAlly left lAst week. It is A grim reminder of the perils in this region or reAlly Any region where longterm occupAtion becomes A <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/core-feAture'>Core FeAtureA> of u. S. Foreign policy. Joining me now is former united <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/stAtes-senAtor'>StAtes SenAtorA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> A member of the foreign relAtions committee, bArbArA boxer. We should know <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> get into this As fAr bAck As 2011 she wrote A piece <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> AdvocAted within her work for A withdrAwAl from AfghAnistAn At thAt time. ThAt is of course A decAde Ago. Were Also joined by A former senior <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/clinton-AdministrAtion'>Clinton AdministrAtionA> officiAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the host of deep stAte rAdio, dAvid rothkopf. I wAnt to turn to the senAtor. In the position you took which the president AlreAdy Alluded to todAy in terms of the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/time-line'>Time LineA>, but dAvid, ill stArt with you on the biggest possible picture, the point i rAise in the introduction, AgAin, not so much A criticism As A sAd observAtion thAt we were hit on the the wAy out As A country <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the president is sAying hell hit bAck but with less of A <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/foot-print'>Foot PrintA>. And the nAture of whAt it is to get out of this entAnglement todAy. I think the president s speech wAs extremely well thought out <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> well bAlAnced. He Addressed why he exited. How he exited. WhAt we would be doing going forwArd. How we would mAintAin our commitment to our Allies, how we would mAintAin our commitment to our citizens where he wAnted our <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/foreign-policy'>Foreign PolicyA> to go. As to the point thAt you mentioned, he hAs to wAlk A fine line. It could be mistAken on the pArt of our enemies thAt by leAving AfghAnistAn we Are turning our bAck on terror, we Are not going to tAke these threAts As seriously. But i think whAt the president is sAying is dont mAke thAt mistAke, he demonstrAted thAt by the wAy with strikes AgAinst the terrorists Almost immediAtely, but there Are <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/something-else'>Something ElseA> thAt is i think A little more resonAnt in All of this. Since the AfghAn review in 2009, when he wAs <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/vice-president'>Vice PresidentA> , <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/joe-biden'>Joe BidenA> hAs been Arguing thAt our mission there should be A counterterrorism mission. And in this speech he wAs very cleAr thAt he wAnted to pursue terrorism As he hAs All long, with focused ApproAch, using over the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/horizon-technology'>Horizon TechnologyA> where we cAn, using our intelligence cApAbilities, not losing our focus thAt we did for 20 yeArs in AfghAnistAn. YeAh, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> AgAin the time weighs heAvily over All of this. As for whAt the president sAid <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> i think it is fAir, you get the long Arc of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/joe-biden'>Joe BidenA>s cAreer, he mAy hAve been closely AssociAted with some of the eArlier <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/foreign-policy'>Foreign PolicyA> estAblish. Which hAs been criticized for some of this. And yet here he is As the president to end it. You mentioned the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/time-line'>Time LineA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> thAt is where we were going with <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/senAtor-boxer'>SenAtor BoxerA>, i wAnt to plAy the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/president-todAy'>President TodAyA> tAlking About once <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bin-lAden'>Bin LAdenA> wAs eliminAted <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> it wAs time then to begin chAnging course. TAke A look. Your AttAck by <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/osAmA-bin-lAden'>OsAmA Bin LAdenA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/Al-qAedA'>Al QAedAA> on september 11th, 2001, we delivered justice to <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bin-lAden'>Bin LAdenA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> mAy 2nd, 2011. We succeeded over A decAde Ago. Then we stAyed for Another decAde. It wAs time to end this wAr. A decAde Ago, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> senAtor, we checked As we often do Around here, whAt you wrote then <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/mAy-2011'>MAy 2011A> wAs thAt <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bin-lAden'>Bin LAdenA> wAs deAd <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the president should promise withdrAwAl of our <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/combAt-forces'>CombAt ForcesA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> you cAlled for the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/end-dAy'>End DAyA> for the u. S. Deployment Around then. I bring thAt up not to just sAy you were right on A trAgic dAy, Although i do think whether people were right About big topics does speAk to whether the Audience should continue listening to them. But thAt is the smAller point. The lArger point is you were right About something fundAmentAl thAt the president Agrees with you todAy <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> why it does tAke Another decAde so this type of thing doesnt hAppen AgAin. It wAs mission creep. I voted to go After <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bin-lAden'>Bin LAdenA>. And if i hAd to do it AgAin, i would do it AgAin. I did not vote to stAy in AfghAnistAn 20 yeArs. Now, my feelings About the tAlibAn were rAw, i wAs furious At them, i wAs glAd they left <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> i prAy god they hAve chAnged, becAuse i visited with so mAny women <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> i know whAt life wAs like. But the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/bottom-line'>Bottom LineA> is you cAnnot hAve this mission creep. I just wAnt to sAy one more point. I got no politics, why . Believe me, in those yeArs women didnt run for office. I rAn becAuse of the vietnAm wAr. BecAuse i sAw thAt we were in the middle of A civil wAr. Here you hAve the tAlibAn, theyre of AfghAnistAn <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> then you hAve the vietcong <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> they were of vietnAm. And it wAs A trAgedy. And every life lost, you know, just weighs on your heArt. And this president is showing in my opinion such greAt strength. He is not sAying whAt A lot of people wAnt to heAr, including people from my own pArty. He is owning up, hes tAking complete responsibility for this <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> i think were on the the right trAck. LAst point, we dont know whAt issing to hAppen going forwArd. But we hAve A presence in the region. And the president hAs bAsicAlly sAid todAy, we Aint going Anywhere. Were over the horizon with drones <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/everything-else'>Everything ElseA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> intel, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> if there is going to be more terrorism, youll heAr from us, we will hunt you down <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> we will never let you rest until we hAve justice. So he is strong. He just doesnt think we cAn nAtion build <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> Agree with him 100 . YeAh <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> reAlly interesting getting your perspective on thAt. I think we hAve some newspApers Around the country. We showed the photos to mArk <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/the-end'>The EndA> of this. But i think from tAlking to my control room, do we hAve the newspApers . YeAh, this is where you see in ArizonA, bAsicAlly on the the right side, but not the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/leAd-story'>LeAd StoryA> there. Well continue on. FloridA times, you could see thAt the debAte over <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/covid-cure'>Covid CureA> is tAking the dAy. Over in louisville, no mention of AfghAnistAn on the front pAge At All. And i go bAck to you, senAtor, becAuse youve wAlked this line, between people living their lives, people worried About covid, the economy, their jobs, A lot of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/reAl-life'>ReAl LifeA>. Weve tAlked About the sAcrifice of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/veterAns-fAmily'>VeterAns FAmilyA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the rest. We thought it wAs notAble, whAt do you think As someone who hAs been A policymAker thAt in A sense thAt the country is supportive of A withdrAwAl <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> pAst this in A weird wAy, they Are not disrespecting whAt is put in but everyone is moving forwArd. Your thoughts. I think it is reAlly interesting becAuse we hAve A president who is just A little younger thAn i Am who is reAlly speAking About the future. We hAve got to put this behind us. This nAtion building. Now were good going to help the people All over the world About our exAmple <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> through diplomAcy <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> when necessAry. Well Act militArily, but thAt doesnt meAn getting bogged down for 20 yeArs in A wAr. And i think AmericA hAs been there for A while. It wAs hArd for me to sAy get out of AfghAnistAn in 2011 becAuse my wonderful <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/hero-bArAck-obAmA'>Hero BArAck ObAmAA> wAs president. I didnt Agree with the surge then. This president finAlly hAs the courAge. Believe me, it doesnt seem like it is courAgeous, but it is courAgeous becAuse wAr is hell. And until the lAst person is out, it is hell. YeAh, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> you remind everyone there AgAin, certAin things thAt mAy seem to be the consensus now <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> you were bAttling up AgAinst other leAders in the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/democrAt-pArty'>DemocrAt PArtyA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> this wAs drAgging <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> drAgging.

We cAnt Afford this infrAstructure, we cAnt Afford this. Stop it. We hAve the money. We Are the richest country on eArth. And thAt is whAt we hAve the money without even properly tAxing the rich.

So we hAve in this country lAws requiring compulsory schooling <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> vAccinAtion. Those override A pArents right to mAke to require them to be vAccinAted <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> As the judge noted on fridAy in certAin circumstAnces, like perhAps A public <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/heAlth-crisis'>HeAlth CrisisA> of the kind we Are fAcing, those pArentAl rights mAy Also be overridden by the plAn for public heAlth or the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/mAsk-mAn'>MAsk MAnA> dAtes in these cAses. Not to be too simplistic, but when in doubt, clArify. Schools Also hAve the Ability to mAke sure everyone is fully clothed. And if their At swim prActice, it might be slightly different but if A pArent sAid well i wAnt my kid to be in the swimsuit All dAy becAuse they grew up on the the beAch <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> thAt is our personAl style <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> vAlues, like, your free to do thAt out of school. But the school is still going to hAve some uniform codes <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> right now im not mAking light of this, there is A lot of doctors <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/cdc-guidAnce'>Cdc GuidAnceA> thAt sAid pArticulArly if hArd hit AreAs following covid sAfety rules is more importAnt thAn being fully clothed. Well, surely the governor knows thAt. Lots of schools hAve <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/dress-code'>Dress CodeA>s. I went to school in floridA, i hAd A <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/dress-code'>Dress CodeA> <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> it wAs pretty drAconiAn despite whAt my pArents or i wAnted. The governor knows this. He knows thAt these rights Are not Absolute. So to sAy thAt hes bAnning <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/mAsk-mAn'>MAsk MAnA>dAtes for the purpose of preserving pArentAl Authority to mAke decisions for their children, everyone knows, certAinly his lAwyers know thAt is perhAps A bit broAd. PArentAl rights dont go so fAr As to require schools to mAke AllowAnces for things thAt they think Are due <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> necessAry for the educAtionAl mission including dem<A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA>s for public heAlth. So whAt we see here now <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the governors open defiAnce of the <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/court-order'>Court OrderA> from fridAy, i think were geAring up with more legAl fights. Will surely be A motion to hold the governor <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> the secretAry of educAtion for Contempt Of Court <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> AppeAls going forwArd. YeAh, <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> i will put up on the screen reAlly quick before we go, did you mention whAt the people wAnt. ThAt is Also relevAnt to this. LegAlly of course the rules wont be up for populAr vote. But for All of the tAlk About floridA fAiling under desAntis, this is where floridiAns Are. It is not even close. 60 to 36 in fAvor of mAsks. PArticulArly As it surged. So AgAin no shAde to everyone living in floridA but some shAde for floridAs governor. Our floridiAn lAwyer melissA murrAy, thAnk you As AlwAys. ThAnk you hAving me. We turn to the devAstAting AverAge of hurricAne idA. Rescuers Are trying to reAch survivors. There is A problem of people str<A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA>ed by flooding. You could see there. Over A million homes <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> businesses Are going forwArd without power right now. ThAt includes soenlly the entire city of <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/new-orleAns'>New OrleAnsA>. Allison bArber is live there. Tell us the situAtion.

You Almost forget thAt you Are in <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/new-orleAns'>New OrleAnsA>. BecAuse it is just pitch blAck.

One of the things thAt weve heArd from A lot of the people is it is difficult to find out where to find <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/help-<A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA>-wAter'>Help And WAterA> becAuse their phones Arent working. This is A city thAt is for All intents <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> purposes completely dArk right now. And the governor hAs sAid thAt it could tAke weeks for the hArdest hit AreAs to see power. The <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/energy-compAny'>Energy CompAnyA> here entergy, sAid if could tAke three dAys to dAmAge when exActly people could see their lights come bAck on. But A little bit of mAybe positive news, if in A seA of not greAt news is thAt they think they mAy hAve A couple of options to get some lights bAck on in <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/new-orleAns'>New OrleAnsA> in the next 48 hours or so. Theyre considering two options right now. One is using bAsicAlly the Power Lines in the AreA thAt Arent severely dAmAged in <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/new-orleAns'>New OrleAnsA> to sort of creAte their own grid within <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/new-orleAns'>New OrleAnsA>. Or connecting them to the mAin <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/power-grid'>Power GridA> like throughout the entire country <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/And-'>AndA> thAt is A wAy to potentiAlly get some lights bAck on here. But there is such A big <A href='https://vimArsAnA.com/news/ripple-effect'>Ripple EffectA> by not hAving power thAt thAt wouldnt fix the problem entirely, Any little bit would help At this point becAuse people Are reAlly just bArely getting by.
