Excerpt from the second link:

==============

During the 2011 Arab Spring uprisings, then-Vice President Biden opposed U.S. military intervention in Libya, despite dictator Moammar Gadhafi’s threats of mass slaughter. He also did not want President Barack Obama to side with protesters against Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak, whom Biden considered a valuable U.S. ally. These past Biden positions still reverberate among Arab American and Muslim American activists now watching Gaza.

When he withdrew U.S. troops from Afghanistan in 2021, Biden knew he’d crush the educational dreams of Afghan women. He nonetheless dismissed the idea that America owed them anything.

==============




Biden did not only "crush the educational dreams of Afghan women."  He allowed both women and girls to be turned into slaves under the Taliban.  And, yes, we did owe the women and girls of Afghanistan further protection--after protecting them for 20 years, giving them a glimpse of what basic freedom can be like.


Biden sickens me.  I may not vote for him.
