GOP Senator Lindsey Graham is now predicting that the US will be forced to return to Afghanistan to deal with the terrorist threats will which will inevitably spawn after President Biden’s disastrous withdrawal.

As The Hill reports:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (S.C.), a leading Republican voice on foreign policy matters, predicted during an interview with the BBC on Monday that the United States “will be going back into Afghanistan” to quell what he predicts will be a growing terrorist threat.

Graham is skeptical of President Biden’s pledge that the threat posed by the Islamic State affiliate based in Afghanistan and other militant groups can be kept in check with an “over the horizon” approach that relies heavily on drone air strikes.

“We will be going back into Afghanistan,” Graham predicted. “We’ll have to because the threat will be so large.”

He warned that Afghanistan will become “a cauldron for radical Islamic behavior,” despite assurances from Taliban leaders that they will not allow the country to become a safe haven for groups such as al Qaeda and ISIS like it was before the 9/11 attacks, which prompted the U.S. to invade 20 years ago.

Is Graham right, or has President Biden’s pullout from Afghanistan been mostly a success? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

      1. like him or not, he got it right this time, however, what he’s not taking into consideration is China, who is buddying up with the Taliban, our Government may decide not to go back there whether needed or not in fear of stepping on China’s toes.

    1. Yah, and we voted Biden in and Trump out but, unfortunately, even if Lindsey goes the they way his enemies desire the Socialist-leaning Left will still complain and spin the scenario that it’s all Trump’s fault. Regardless of whatever happens they Left will still rant on and on that i remains all the Trump supporting Republican’s fault. Yes, even it we sacrifice Graham on the altar of a Liberal Dem tax-and-spend agenda and we further sell-out of our allies and fiends left behind on the platform of ISIS dictated Sharia Law. Let’s face facts it’s a type of tyrannical Law and promogulated with chants of death to all infidels who stand in the way of obstructing any form of a radicalized Islamic religious status for the Middle East and elsewhere. These are not live and let live Islamists but fanatics just as we have seen with the executions now going on. They are not the true angels of Allah but the fallen offspring of Lilith the demonic and evil one.

    2. Not only Graham , all politicians are the same. They are all opportunists. No one has the good of the country in their bloods.
      Graham has spoken against Trump a dozen times and some times though reluctantly has supported him when ever he saw trump’s side heavier.

  1. I predict that they will be here in full force someday. So the commiecrats want to disarm us to make their job easier

  2. And I’ll bet a pack of Twinkies that–although Numb Nuts and his fellow liberals will object strenuously to the redeployment of our troops to Afghanistan–our ‘majority’ in Congress and the White House will be forced to capitulate to these evil Republicans, and authorize this deployment. They’ll also vote to fund those troops on a continuing basis. OMG!! Those EVIL Republicans!!!!!!

    1. P.S., Unfortunately, the likelihood that those camel jockeys will resent our intruding upon their real estate will pique their ‘terrorist’ attitudes, and result in another 9/11-ish attack. Therefore, the PATRIOT Act will need to be yet again renewed by said majority. Of course, they’ll apologize for this renewal….

  3. Bidens an a……hole. we’ll have no choice but to go back. We still have troops in Korea. Why not keep some in Afghanistan. It’s called a deterrent, not a war.

  4. Islamic terrorism is the enemy of America and the civilized world. The governments of Afghanistan and Iran are controlled by Islamic terrorists.

    Senator Lindsay Graham is right. It is just a matter of time before America is forced to defend itself against the Islamic terrorist threats. We will likely be back in Afghanistan, which now has a well supplied military of American equipment and armaments.

    This would have been avoided if Biden were not elected by shallow and shortsighted American voters and democrat media.

    A sad situation, but America will overcome.

  5. Though it’s highly possible that the USA will have to re-enter Afghanistan militarily it is my opinion the War or ‘rumors of War’ [aka cyber-warfare] will occur first with Red China.

  6. Regrettably, due to the erroneous policies of the Biden Administration, we most likely WILL be drawn back into a confrontation in Afghanistan. The many different terrorist organizations are all gathering there already to plan their next crimes against the U.S. & other freedom loving countries.

  7. Any 2nd Lt graduating from West Point could have written a better withdrawal plan. I am confident that this plan was written by a recent IVY leaguer who never wore a uniform. The chairman of the joint chiefs should resign because he always new this plan would leave Americans, and allies who wanted to leave trapped behind enemy lines. He gave the Taliban hostages. If he didn’t know he should be returned to the academy for refresher training as a midshipman.

    1. Right, Yet I doubt that ANY military mind was involved. Maybe Secretary Austin consulted a ouija board…Or AOC, the Bolshevik with scarlet lips. Or Nasty Pelovsky, the Wicked Witch of the West.

  8. An interesting facet of this discussion would be the omission of China as our next target of aggression. Our government leaders, as well as our military version, know all too well that America cannot engage in hostilities with nations that fight back, with aircraft and other state-of-the-art weaponry that will decimate our forces. This is not to mention their Nuclear option. These camel hole conflicts we’re embroiling our forces in will pale considerably to a shooting war against such armies. It is unfortunate that our military forces are now involved with social engineering, while the hardware we purchase for premium prices is either too complex and high maintenance for combat purposes, or we simply are ill equipped with a numerically sufficient arsenal of these assets to think about deploying them into harm’s way. Oh, Numb Nuts might rattle a sword or two to demonstrate his warrior prowess, but he’ll come up short when such bluster results in actual enemy aggression.

  9. Well, of course we are going to be involved in another never ending, no-win conflict in Afghanistan. If not the Taliban, then with any number of other Islamic groups, all devoted to converting, enslaving, or destroying us infidels as demanded in their unholy Quran. The next conflict will be much bigger and bloodier since they were just given a massive U.S. arms “welfare package”. The only way to win against suicidal radical maniacs is to send them to Hell and since they hide behind their women’s dresses and children, a LOT of innocent lives, on a scale not seen since the fire bombing raids and nuclear bombings of World War 2, will have to be lost to defeat them. It’s going to be nothing short of an “it’s us or them” no compromise war.

    1. “…all devoted to converting, enslaving, or destroying us infidels as demanded in their unholy Quran.” Try reading the Talmud.

  10. Considering that Biden’s past indicates that almost everything he has either done or supported during his entire political career was either wrong or contrary to popular demand, how could we possibly believe anything he predicts. The title”president “ doesn’t make him any smarter. Time to rid America of this unfortunate experience as soon as possible and get a president who can lead America in the right direction with strength. The world is laughing at us so hard that it cannot find the words to express its frustration with present day America. Biden certainly is not the one to even find his way across the street.

  11. LISTEN UP…LINDSAY GRAHAM is ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. The TERRORIST Problem is SO BAD that OTHER COUNTRIES will NEED to JOIN FORCES with the U.S. to Combat TERRORISM. From SamuraiQueen. 😄😄😄

  12. Graham voted for all of Biden’s picks for radical left-wing judges. If we go back it should be a NO PRISONERS taken approach.
