Trump Honored the Death of 13 American Military Personnel Killed by Suicide Bomber At Kabul Airport as Afghans Were Being Evacuatedahe tr

 

Biden’s abrupt withdrawal generated scenes worse than the evacuation from Saigon
The Paris Peace Accords would quickly lead to military aid especially in the air shortly being gone
Ford failed to get Congress to fund any more dollars and the lasting peace revealed as a face saving charade
The NVA forces were soon streaming to Saigon almost as if on a military parade
Vietnamese soldiers and citizens who had worked for the U.S. were in a conga line of panic heading up to the roof of the U.S. Embassy
Knowing they would face retribution if they could not flee
The last two American casualties two Marines died in a rocket attack on Tan Son Nhut Air Base 3 miles from Saigon on the day before Saigon fell
But the Marines guarding the Embassy and civilians fleeing safely were able to bid farewell
But most of the choppers landing on U.S. carriers offshore
Were pushed into the sea to make room for more
Fast forward to Biden’s tail between the legs pullout from Afghanistan
Thousands of Afghans boarding cargo planes in panic to escape the Taliban
Running after the planes as they took off in a futile attempt to the planes cling
Knowing if successful a soon death from falling off the attempt would bring
But unlike evacuation from Saigon, a suicide bomber detonated his suicide vest
And 13 military personnel trying to protect the evacuation were sent to their eternal rest
Their deaths were tragic but the scenes of Biden when the flag draped caskets arrived at Andrews Air Force Base
Were those that Americans especially military personnel will never erase
Biden kept looking at his watch as if he did not want or could be bothered to be standing there
The blood on his hands could not be seen as he was oblivious to the facts that American deterrence of foes like Russia, Iran, Hamas and China he had impaired
Trump honored the military personnel killed and wounded by the blast
With a proclamation and announcement of intent to rename the DOD of one of “war” signifying the end of policy of America last
