Reporters perplexed by Biden's comments on Afghan withdrawal: 'The reality and the rhetoric are miles apart’

Reporters perplexed by Biden's comments on Afghan withdrawal: 'The reality and the rhetoric are miles apart’

Fox News
Friday, August 20, 2021 10:03 PM GMT

Reporters appeared flabbergasted by the comments President Biden made about the ongoing rescue efforts to get American citizens and Afghan allies out of Afghanistan.

"I'm having a hard time digesting what we heard because I couldn't fact-check it fast enough in real-time because there were so many misrepresentations of what is happening on the ground," Fox News' Jennifer Griffin reacted. "To hear the president talk about still having an ‘over the horizon capability' to see what is happening with the remnants of Al Qaeda, ISIS K… and even the Taliban, that would require partners on the ground and what we've seen on in recent days is that those partners on the ground have been abandoned, they're in hiding, they're fearing for their lives, they fled the country. We don't have partners, we don't have eyes and ears." "The whole reason the U.S. military cannot leave the airport to rescue any Americans who are out in Kabul when British and French special forces can do so is that they don't have any partners left. They don't have partners there who can help them safely navigate. So I don't see how you can say that with a straight face that they're going to be ‘over the horizon capabilities' to see the terror threat in Afghanistan when this is all said and done."
