Will President Biden Order U.S. Troops To Stay At Kabul Airport To Attack ISIS-K Past The August 31 Deadline?

A propaganda photo released by ISIS-K in Afghanistan shows well-equipped fighters who have claimed responsibility for hundreds of attacks against Afghan and foreign targets  

Daily Mail: Joe's nightmare choice on whether to leave troops to attack ISIS-K or pull them out by August 31: As Biden orders Pentagon to plan strikes - how can he 'hunt down' the terrorists behind the double suicide blast? 

* President Biden announced the U.S. would hunt down terrorists behind attack 

* At least 13 U.S. military personnel died in two suicide bombings at airport 

* Biden said the evacuation would continue as planned until August 31 

* And he said he had asked for plans to strike at ISIS-K leadership and assets 

* But Intelligence experts said the U.S. now lacked the assets needed to hunt down terrorists in Afghanistan 

President Joe Biden spent Thursday hunkered down with his national security team as he weighed one of the most difficult questions of his presidency: How to respond to the most deadly attack on American troops in Afghanistan in a decade. 

When he entered the East Room of the White House at a little after 5pm his mind was made up. He announced he would push on with plans to bring home all U.S. troops by the end of the month while hunting down the ISIS offshoot behind the killing of 13 service personnel.

'We will not forgive. We will not forget. We will hunt you down and make you pay,' he said in emotional remarks.
