@johnny_eth False. The Taliban offered to send Bin Laden to another country for trial instead of America. He probably would have been sent to one of those countries celebrating 9/11 in the streets.

Short answer: Neither Trump or Biden bothered to make an actual exit strategy. Both wanted the glory of ending the war, but neither wanted to put in the work to do so successfully.

It wasn't just about killing the leader. It was about making sure Afghanistan wasn't used as a base for terrorists to launch attacks against the West. We failed this objective with Biden's unconditional surrender to the Taliban. In addition, without partners on the ground, America now have limited ability to collect intelligence or launch attacks against both AL Qaeda and ISIS-K.

@unclepaulhahrrgis8730 Unlike Bush or Obama, Trump and Biden couldn't care less about the Afghans. The Afghans knew this and that is why they gave up so quickly.

@hendriktonisson2915 Because Trump is known for being a methodical intellectual and a forward thinker? Trump didn't have a plan. His only advantage over Biden is that he probably would have listened to his generals when it came to the details of the exit.
