Joe Biden has once again pathetically bowed to the Taliban, who have said there will now be no extension to the August 31st deadline for all US and Western troops to evacuate Afghanistan or face “consequences”.

Biden’s decision comes after Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid said Tuesday morning that the terrorists will accept “no extensions” to the August 31 deadline.

Reportedly the Taliban met with CIA Director William Burns on Monday who negotiated in person with Taliban leader and co-founder Abdul Ghani Baradar.

They do not appear to have reached any agreement Breitbart reported.

Mujahid said he was “not aware” the CIA met with the Taliban, “but he did not deny that such a meeting took place,” according to the Associated Press. The CIA would neither confirm nor deny the negotiation.

With tens of thousands of US and other Western citizens still stranded in the country along with tens of thousands more Afghans in imminent danger for their collaboration with the 20-year-long US led occupation of the country it is likely that thousands will now be left behind to their fate.
