Lindsey Graham: The Intel Failure in Afghanistan ‘Is Joe Biden Himself’

‘He chose the most dangerous and dishonorable option available’

EXCERPT:

GRAHAM: “We need to open up Bagram air base to have another way to get out. And we need to cancel the August 31 deadline because we can’t get our people out. The bottom line, this is an ill-conceived, disjointed, half-ass effort to get American citizens and those who fought for us out of Afghanistan. And the intel failure in this whole debacle is Joe Biden himself. It’s not the quality of the intelligence, it’s the quality of the man receiving the intel. He was wrong about Iraq. He was wrong about killing bin Laden. He’s been wrong about everything. He got up in front of the world and said Al Qaeda is out of Afghanistan. Good God, is the man brain-dead? He also said the Taliban are wading people through the checkpoints. Does he not have a television? This is just so disturbing. And he says our allies agree with what he’s doing. Well, all of that is dead wrong. And I’m worried about an ISIS attack at the airport that could kill thousands of people, including Americans who are sitting ducks. If we don’t change his plan quickly, we’ll get a lot of people killed by ISIS, not the Taliban.”
