Joe Biden has broken another promise: to bring swift justice to those who attacked and killed American servicemembers in Afghanistan.
The administration was quick to point to two drone strikes as “righteous” following the attack. However, one strike killed 7 innocent children, and the other killed a terrorist facilitator who was “not directly involved” in the attack.

Fox News reports on the Biden Administration's past comments touting the tragic drone strike:

"Now we know that it was, in fact, a colossal intelligence failure. At least ten Afghanistan civilians, including seven children, were killed—but not a single ISIS-K terrorist." pic.twitter.com/oOdjG2QtKj
Meanwhile, Biden’s own defense officials concede that jihadist terrorists are “significantly embolden[ed],” Al Qaeda is reconstituting, there are thousands of hardened ISIS-K fighters on the ground newly released from prison during the withdrawal, and combating terrorism in Afghanistan is harder than ever.
Where is the retaliation against those terrorists directly involved? Why was the Biden administration so quick to brag about these attacks before they knew the facts? Is this a sign of more failures to come now that Biden has handed Afghanistan to terrorists?
Because of Joe Biden, U.S. servicemembers were put in harm’s way, 13 brave men and women were killed, and the terrorists that attacked us are stronger than ever. And he has done nothing to respond.
