America's Longest War Ends?

President Biden plans to have the last of the US troops leave by September, 11th, 2021. Think this is a good idea? I am torn, I am more than ready for this occupation to end, but I don't want the Taliban to take back control of the nation. Probably moot, likely the Taliban already controls most of the country.

It’s not our country. Not our decision who rules it. We never should have been at war with the Taliban. They offered up bin Laden after 9/11 if we would only provide evidence. Guess we didn’t have any...

May 1 was the deadline from Trump. We will see whether or not the new deadline is honored by the H-B administration. Symbolism, why pick 9/11 for any other reason.
In the meantime how many Soldiers will be maimed or die in the ensuing 5 months and for what?

President Biden might just be kicking the can down the road. There has to be corporations and individuals who have become quite rich after the twenty year occupation. I can't imagine they want that money to stop flowing in to Kabul.
And even the Afghans realize their country will lose a lot of money if the Americans withdraw.

Statement on Afghanistan withdrawal from President Barrack Obama:

President Biden has made the right decision in completing the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Afghanistan. Today, we should pause to pay tribute to the extraordinary sacrifices of the Americans who have served in our longest war, as well as their families. We also honor the allies who served alongside us, and the Afghan people who have suffered so much in pursuit of a better future for their country. It has been a long and arduous struggle in Afghanistan, rooted in our response to the deadliest terrorist attack on the U.S. homeland in our history. American troops, diplomats, and development workers can take pride in their efforts to deliver justice for 9/11, destroy al Qaeda's safe-haven, train Afghan Security Forces, and support the people of Afghanistan.

Since we began to draw down U.S. forces in 2011, the United States made clear to the Afghan government that we would be gradually transitioning responsibility for security while creating time and space for efforts to improve governance and pursue diplomacy. Nearly a decade later, it is time to turn the page to the next chapter of our relationship with Afghanistan. There will be very difficult challenges and further hardship ahead in Afghanistan, and the U.S. must remain engaged diplomatically and through our development efforts to support the Afghan people, particularly those who have taken extraordinary risks on behalf of human rights. But after nearly two decades of putting our troops in harm’s way, it is time to recognize that we have accomplished all that we can militarily, and that it’s time to bring our remaining troops home. I support President Biden’s bold leadership in building our nation at home and restoring our standing around the world.

NATO appears to be onboard with the decision, they weren't when President Trump talked about it.
