Daily Mail: EXCLUSIVE: Retired three-star general says America's return to Afghanistan is 'inevitable' as terrorist groups flourish under Taliban rule - as he slams Biden's 'immature, unsophisticated' plan that turned the US into a 'laughing stock' 

* A retired three-star US general has warned of America's 'inevitable' return to Afghanistan now that Taliban forces have taken control of the country 

* The former military leader, who previously briefed multiple presidents, spoke anonymously to DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview 

* The general says terrorist organizations will only flourish under Taliban rule now that US and NATO have no on-the-ground bases in the region 

* 'The next time we go there, if we need to go there, the 82nd Airborne will probably be the guys that need to take it by force,' he said 

* The withdrawal of troops means the US no longer has 'eyes and ears' in the area - which is bordered by Iran, Pakistan, and China and Russia 

* The senior military leader also slammed Biden and top brass for an 'immature, unsophisticated, ad-hoc' plan and the deaths of 13 US troops last week 

* He said past US presidents have made adjustments to the political plans, based on the best military advice from their joint chiefs or secretary of defense 

* 'In this case there were no adjustments made. That doesn't mean no dissent happened. That's telling,' he added 

The United States will 'inevitably' have to return to Afghanistan as terrorist groups flourish under a Taliban-ruled narco-state, a retired three-star general has told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview. 

The former senior military leader, who briefed multiple presidents in his role and spoke anonymously to DailyMail.com, said the Taliban regime will create a new threat to America that will eventually require us to invade - again. 

The general slammed President Joe Biden and top brass for an 'immature, unsophisticated, ad-hoc' plan and said the 'insane debacle', including the deaths of 13 officers from a suicide bomb on Thursday, was 'preventable and totally avoidable'.
