    Taliban Trump youre really out here creating fantasies

    You shouldn't fantasise then.

    It's best you insert yourself into the world of facts, rather than the sprinkling of Trump enchanted pixie dust giving you a blind love infatuated mancrush and revealing just how dopey gullible you are.

    In February 2020, the United States
    and the Taliban reached a deal, known as the Doha Agreement, under which the United
    States agreed to withdraw all U.S. forces from Afghanistan by May 2021. In return, the
    Taliban agreed to participate in a peace process and refrain from attacking U.S. troops
    and threatening Afghanistan’s major cities—but only as long as the United States
    remained committed to withdraw by the agreement’s deadline. As part of the deal,
    President Trump also pressured the Afghan government to release 5,000 Taliban
    fighters from prison, including senior war commanders, without securing the release of
    the only American hostage known to be held by the Taliban.
    Over his last 11 months in office, President Trump ordered a series of drawdowns of
    U.S. troops. By June 2020, President Trump reduced U.S. troops in Afghanistan to
    8,600. In September 2020, he directed a further draw down to 4,500. A month later,
    President Trump tweeted, to the surprise of military advisors, that the remaining U.S.
    troops in Afghanistan should be “home by Christmas!” On September 28, 2021,
    Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Milley testified that, on November 11, he had
    received an unclassified signed order directing the U.S. military to withdraw all forces
    from Afghanistan no later than January 15, 2021. One week later, that order was
    rescinded and replaced with one to draw down to 2,500 troops by the same date.
    During the transition from the Trump Administration to the Biden Administration, the
    outgoing Administration provided no plans for how to conduct the final withdrawal or to
    evacuate Americans and Afghan allies. Indeed, there were no such plans in place
    when President Biden came into office, even with the agreed upon full withdrawal just
    over three months away.

    As a result, when President Biden took office on January 20, 2021, the Taliban were in
    the strongest military position that they had been in since 2001, controlling or contesting
    nearly half of the country. At the same time, the United States had only 2,500 troops on
    the ground—the lowest number of troops in Afghanistan since 2001—and President
    Biden was facing President Trump’s near-term deadline to withdraw all U.S. forces from
    Afghanistan by May 2021, or the Taliban would resume its attacks on U.S. and allied
    troops. Secretary of Defense Austin testified on September 28, 2021, “the intelligence
    was clear that if we did not leave in accordance with that agreement, the Taliban would
    recommence attacks on our forces.”
    This experience underscores the critical importance of detailed and effective transition
    coordination, especially when it comes to complex military operations for which
    decisions and execution pass from one administration to the next, and consequential
    deals struck late in the outgoing administration whose implementation will fall largely to
    the incoming administration.

    After the signing of the US–Taliban deal on February 29, 2020, insurgent attacks against Afghan security forces surged. The Taliban resumed offensive operations against the Afghan army and police on March 3, 2020, conducting attacks in Kunduz and Helmand provinces.[48] On March 4, the US conducted airstrikes on Taliban fighters in Afghanistan's southern Helmand province.[49]

    However, in the aftermath of the agreement, the US stopped supporting the Afghan military in its offensive operations, forcing it to take mostly defensive positions around the country. According to the agreement, US military aircraft could not attack Taliban groups waiting more than 500 meters away, giving the Taliban an edge in targeting Afghan military units. The agreement also exacerbated the decline in morale of the Afghan army and police, making them more open to accepting bargains with the Taliban. Due to a lack of information and secret annexes in the agreement, that had not been shared even with the then Afghan government, the Taliban were able to spread propaganda and disinformation about the agreement, including convincing local police and military units that the US had handed over territories to the Taliban and that they should abandon their positions.[50]

    In the 45 days after the agreement (between March 1 and April 15, 2020), the Taliban conducted more than 4,500 attacks in Afghanistan, an increase of more than 70% compared to the same period in the previous year.[51] More than 900 Afghan security forces were killed in the period, up from about 520 in the same period a year earlier. Meanwhile, because of a significant reduction in the number of offensives and airstrikes by Afghan and US forces against the Taliban, Taliban casualties dropped to 610 in the period down from about 1,660 in the same period a year earlier. The Pentagon spokesman, Jonathan Hoffman, said that although the Taliban stopped conducting attacks against the US-led coalition forces in Afghanistan, the violence was still "unacceptably high" and "not conducive to a diplomatic solution." He added: "We have continued to do defensive attacks to help defend our partners in the area and we will continue to do that."[51]

    On June 22, 2020, Afghanistan reported its "bloodiest week in 19 years", during which 291 members of the ANSF were killed and 550 others wounded in 422 attacks carried out by the Taliban. At least 42 civilians, including women and children, were also killed and 105 others wounded by the Taliban across 18 provinces.[52] During the week, the Taliban kidnapped 60 civilians in the central province of Daykundi



    Just how you and the other Trumptards would react if Biden did this traiterous act against his own Department of Defence and American interests?
    It's obvious you will give some absurd stupid response because that's what Trump enchanted pixie dust, blind love infatuated mancrushed dopey Trumptards instinctively do.
