Our political pundits are focusing on Biden's disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan as a political blunder by the president and our military leaders, but what if the root cause for Biden's withdrawal is much more ominous and sinister than mere stupidity? The following questions demand an answer.
Why would our military commanders willingly give up
Bagram, a strategic airport built by the Russians, and why would they willingly
leave $85 billion in military hardware behind?
Why would they leave thousands of Americans stranded behind
enemy lines while providing the Taliban a "kill list" of those
Americans left behind? Unlike previous withdrawals, where it is
customary upon withdrawal to first evacuate our citizens, and then destroy the
equipment and blow up the bases, we did the opposite. We did
not evacuate our citizens. We did not destroy the
equipment. And we did not blow up the bases.
We have learned that the Biden administration cut off all
communication with the anti-Taliban resistance group, the National
Front. Although Ali Nazar, head of foreign relations for the group,
has said he
"tried to reach out," there has been no response from the Biden
administration. Glenn Beck recently reported that
his mission to rescue Afghan Christians has been blocked by our State
Department and the White House, and he fears that they may be burned alive or
crucified by the Taliban.
Are we to believe that our military leadership, led by
four-star generals, is so naïve and incompetent? Highly unlikely!
A more likely scenario is that Afghanistan was
surrendered at the urging of the Red Chinese, who saw an opportunity to
blackmail old Joe for the many kickbacks he and his son, Hunter, had been
taking throughout his years in Washington, D.C. It is no secret that
the Red Chinese have had their eye on Afghanistan's mineral
deposits. Just two weeks before the American surrender, a Chinese
delegation met in Kabul with the Taliban. Although the mainstream
media have protected and covered for Joe Biden, reports of information
contained on Hunter Biden's laptop and emails exchanged between his partner,
Tony Bobulinski, and Hunter, are damning proof of illicit wheeling and dealing
by the Bidens to provide access to the White House while Joe was vice
president.
In a May 2017 email
exchange between Hunter Biden and his former business partner, Tony
Bobulinski, the two discussed how to cut Joe Biden in on a multi-million-dollar
deal with a Communist Party billionaire. In the email, Joe Biden was
referred to as "The Big Guy." That email exchange was one
of thousands of messages found on Hunter Biden's laptop that he left behind in
a repair shop in Wilmington, Delaware in April of 2019. The repair
shop–owner turned over the laptop to the FBI, but in a telling sign of the
FBI's lack of fidelity to our country, it failed to investigate what was
clearly a sign of selling access.
As far back as 2013, Hunter Biden's equity firm scored
a $1.5-billion
deal with the Bank of China only days after his father paid an
official visit to the country. The deal was made at a time when the
Red Chinese declared their sovereignty over the South China Sea. Our
allies in the region were rightfully upset and voiced their disapproval; thus,
it was in that context that Vice President Joe Biden was sent to China to
confront the Chinese about their controversial move. He flew to China
on Air Force Two along with his son, Hunter, and his
granddaughter. However, Joe Biden failed to challenge the
Chinese. Instead, he went soft, and, not surprisingly, his son
returned to the United States with a $1.5-billion deal.
Surrendering to a terrorist organization, leaving
Americans behind enemy lines, providing the terrorists with $85 billion in
military aid which they will in return use against us, and blocking the
evacuation of Americans are indicative of an administration acting as a proxy
for those who seek our demise. Already, there has been a transfer of
our left-behind arms to Iran and Pakistan, while secretary of state Antony
Blinken has announced our intention to recognize the Taliban as a legitimate
government should they renounce terror. Blinken should not need to
be reminded that the Taliban is a terror organization, and to drive
that point home, they wasted no time in releasing the ISIS and al-Qaeda
terrorists held as prisoners while we were there.
Investigative journalist Lara Logan recently stated that
instead of holding the terrorists accountable, we are deferring to them on the
20th anniversary of 9/11, the deadliest terrorist attack upon our
country. Negotiating with a terrorist organization is forbidden
under U.S. law, but with a corrupt DOJ and a spineless Congress, it appears
there is no one we can rely upon but ourselves to conduct a proper
investigation into the treasonous acts committed by Joe Biden and his band of
cohorts.
Is China, by way of a domestic proxy, now dictating
American foreign policy? If so, where do we go from here?
