Don't forgive IS, kill one by one: Biden warns

(PTI) Washington, Dt

"We will not forget the terrorists and we will not forgive them," said US President Joe Biden, who killed 12 American soldiers and 17 other civilians in two suicide bombings outside Kabul airport in Afghanistan. We will find and kill each attacker one by one. He must be punished for this attack.

US President Joe Biden further said that there was no evidence of collusion between the Taliban and Islamic State in the attack on Kabul airport. We will continue to rescue American citizens from Afghanistan. We will also expel our Afghan allies and our mission will continue. Biden observed a moment of silence and bowed his head in emotional tribute to the soldiers killed in the Kabul attack.

He ordered the American flag to be flown at half-mast across the country. With tears in his eyes, Biden said IS-K, or IS-Khorasan, was behind the attack near a hotel outside Kabul airport. Biden ordered his commanders to strike the IS-Khorasan terrorists, their locations and seize their assets. "We will respond to these IS terrorists at the place of our choice, in time," he added. Don't let them win. He also ordered the evacuation of American citizens and thousands of Afghans at Kabul airport to continue until August 31.

The United States and the Taliban have set a deadline of August 31 for the withdrawal of US-led NATO forces from war-torn Afghanistan. We will complete this mission within the stipulated time limit. We will not be afraid of terrorist attacks. Even after withdrawing our troops, we will find a way to repatriate Americans who want to leave Afghanistan.

He also warned the Taliban in Afghanistan that it was in their best interest to leave the country. He has no faith in the Taliban, but the Taliban have an interest in Afghanistan. They will find a way to keep the airport free even after the withdrawal of American forces.

Meanwhile, President Biden is being fished in the US for the attack, despite warnings of a possible terrorist attack near Kabul airport. US Senator Josh Howley has blamed President Biden for the deaths of US troops in a terrorist attack in Kabul. Republican leader Alice Stefanik also tweeted blaming Biden.
