Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a comparatively short time, but the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience and maturity.

Sen. Lindsey Graham put the Biden administration’s review of the botched Afghanistan withdrawal on full blast Sunday, accusing officials of a “political whitewash” by repeatedly blaming former President Donald Trump and downplaying the risk of terrorism in the report.
“When the Biden administration tells you there are no terrorists in Afghanistan, they are lying,” Graham told “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream.
“The [Biden administration’s] report says that our mission had been accomplished and that’s why Biden got out of Afghanistan. He’s claiming that we eradicated all terrorist threats in Afghanistan; that’s why he withdrew to end the longest war.”

“General [Anthony] Carrelli said last week… that the rise of ISIS-K and Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan is so severe we could be attacked in America in the next six months without warning,” he said earlier in the segment.

Graham warned of a “lethal cocktail” forming in the region, combined with the dangers of open-border policies domestically that could lead to another 9/11 unless leaders reverse course.
“My view of what happened in Afghanistan with Biden is he paved the way for another 9/11,” he stressed.
Graham’s comments come after the 12-page report’s release on Thursday, which garnered attention for repeatedly lambasting former President Donald Trump for allegedly constraining the conditions of the evacuation process, during which a suicide bombing claimed the lives of 13 U.S. service members at the Hamid Karzai International Airport.
“President Biden’s choices for how to execute a withdrawal from Afghanistan were severely constrained by conditions created by his predecessor,” the report claimed.
The document particularly shifted blame to Trump for providing no plans on how to conduct a withdrawal from the region despite plans to complete the withdrawal shortly after Biden took office in January 2021.

The withdrawal, executed in August 2021, took heat from critics as several U.S. citizens and Afghan allies were left behind in the wake of the Taliban’s return to power for the first time since U.S. troops overthrew the radical Islamist regime nearly 20 years prior.
White House national security spokesman John Kirby alleged on the day of the report’s release that the Trump administration’s “lack of planning” “significantly limited options” available for Biden to take during the withdrawal under his tenure.
Critics like Graham dragged the Biden administration for shifting the blame on the botched withdrawal after the report went public, including Texas Rep. Michael McCaul, R., who slammed Kirby’s language as “disgraceful and insulting.”
Reps. Ronny Jackson, R-Texas, and Mark Green, R-Tenn., as well as Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont. also criticized the document’s claims.
