#WR; Is Kabul another Saigon? @WSJ wrote that "Biden Says Kabul Is No Saigon" And despite the President's arguments, the editorial affirms that "If there is a Saigon-like tragedy, Mr. Biden can’t wash his hands of responsibility." Recent events suggest Kabul is similar to Saigon.
The Wall Street Journal wrote "Is there a comparison between the U.S. withdrawal in Kabul and the flight from Saigon in 1975? “None whatsoever. Zero,” Mr. Biden said. “What you had is you had entire brigades breaking through the gates of our Embassy. Six if I’m not mistaken. The Taliban is not the South, the North Vietnamese army. They’re not—they’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstance where you’re going to see people being lifted off the roof of a embassy” in Afghanistan."
Personally, I think that it is possible President Biden is wrong. We have to hope that no.
