Brits hold Biden in contempt over Afghan fiasco

 Bryan Preston:

Joe Biden’s disastrous handling of Afghanistan and his remarks on the debacle continue to reverberate around the world. The British Daily Telegraph reports that America’s closest ally is roundly condemning Biden and questioning its relationship with the United States.

The Daily Telegraph reports that “Joe Biden’s handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal was condemned as ‘catastrophic’ and ‘shameful’ as Parliament delivered an unprecedented rebuke to a US president.”

The Telegraph reports that condemnation for Biden came from across the political spectrum in Britain, Tory and Labour alike, and included Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Johnson himself, a staunch ally of the United States regardless of the president or party to which he belongs, also came under fierce criticism. He could only argue that Biden’s decisions had forced his hand.

...

Biden has lost the support of much of Congress and now the number one ally of the US.  Biden did not even coordinate with allies in constructing his debacle.  Nothing like this has happened in my lifetime.  The Brits are not wrong.  I find his actions contemptible too.
