Story deserved more coverage
I noticed the World Briefs article, “Senator: Allies see greater terror threat following US’S Afghan exit” buried on page A10, the sole news item among two pages of ads.
Sen. Bill Hagerty, former ambassador to Japan, expressed the concerns of our European allies: “The result is that we have a heightened exposure to terror now” due to the manner in which the Biden administration withdrew from Afghanistan, and the E.U. allies he spoke with believe that withdrawal “put the world at risk, or at least the world of our allies.”
Mainstream media and the vast majority of Democrats appear to want to turn the page and move on to a new chapter, but if our E.U. allies feel they can no longer rely on U.S. resolve to push back aggressively against an ever more threatening stance by our militarily powerful enemies, i.e. aggression against Taiwan, the Ukraine and Middle Eastern countries, etc. the result could (will?) be a shooting war the likes of which we have never seen before.
Perhaps this story, which seemed to be buried, deserves a lot more coverage than it has been afforded.
