In an assessment of how President Biden followed Trump´s foreign policy, Rosser pointed out that GOPers falsely claimed that Afghanistan disaster will be Biden´s fault, not his predecessor.

Yes, as an American who supported the original invasion in Afghanistan 20 years ago to overthrow the Taliban and halt support for Al-Qaeda, it also frustrates me that we did not get out of there once the goal was achieved, Rosser claimed in a published analysis on website: nakedcapitalism.

But it remains unclear why we stayed then, especially considering that the George W. Bush administration went on invading Iraq.

The last thing I checked is that (Donald) Rumsfeld was the one who played a key role in deciding that the United States stay in Afghanistan.
