Former President Barack Obama spoke out on Friday to say that he and his wife Michelle are “heartbroken” over yesterday’s deadly terrorist attack in Kabul, Afghanistan that killed thirteen U.S. service members.
Obama said that he and his wife “were heartbroken to hear about the terrorist attack outside the Kabul airport that killed and wounded so many U.S. service members, as well as Afghan men, women, and children,” according to CNBC.
“As president, nothing was more painful than grieving with the loved ones of Americans who gave their lives serving our country,” Obama said. “As President Biden said, these service members are heroes who have been engaged in a dangerous, selfless mission to save the lives of others.”
“We’re also thinking of the families of the Afghans who died, many of whom stood by America and were willing to risk everything for a chance at a better life,” Obama concluded.
Earlier this year, Obama voiced his support for President Joe Biden’s plan to withdraw troops from Afghanistan.
“After nearly two decades of putting our troops in harm’s way, it is time to recognize that we have accomplished all that we can militarily, and that it’s time to bring our remaining troops home,” he said back in April.
Former President Donald Trump released a statement about yesterday’s terrorist attack as well.
“Melania and I send our deepest condolences to the families of our brilliant and brave Service Members whose duty to the U.S.A. meant so much to them. Our thoughts are also with the families of the innocent civilians who died today in the savage Kabul attack,” Trump said, according to Daily Mail. “This tragedy should never have been allowed to happen, which makes our grief even deeper and more difficult to understand.”
Melania added on her own Twitter account, “We are praying for the families and loved ones of the Marine heroes killed in Kabul and for everyone who is suffering during this difficult time.”
Former Trump national security adviser H.R. McMaster spoke out on Thursday night to warn that there was more to come.
“What we saw today is just the beginning,” McMaster told Yahoo News. “We are going to see horrible image after horrible image. … We’re going to confront the steady drumbeat of horrors inflicted on the Afghan people. What are we going to do about it? Are we going to give a damn? Or is this going to be like Rwanda?”

Bullshit, these two idiots couldn’t care less about american deaths. Who do think is behind this mess we are in
These two qu**rs don’t care about anyone but themselves and that includes each other.
Fuehrer Obama and his “wife” Michael aka Michelle Obama don’t give a fart in a windstorm about anything but money, power and doing anything and everything they can to destroy America.
The “main” qu**r is STILL illegal therefore his “presidency” should be erased and he and his “husband” should be sent to Gitma for the rest of their lives and return the “daughters they claim as theirs” back to their biological parents.
Have you ever wondered if Valerie Jarrett was a surrogate
Remember Obama’s maternal grandfather and Jarrett’s grandfather were great friends in Iran.
Don’t care what this limp wristed, waste of oxygen has to say. Or his useless, never proud to be an American unless my hubby is president live in partner.
Not sure I understand the story line. These two could care less about Afghanistan. Photo op? This debacle has gone down exactly how Barry wanted. They have the perfect fall guy. How do you live the remainder of your life knowing that you ranked below JIMMY CARTER? All while Barry, Susan, Valerie and George continue to take us deeper into hell.
This is the result of 8 years under a president who started in Muslim school in Indonesia, did not live within 2500 miles of the US mainland until he started college. There should be NO states outside the original 48, no presidents born outside the original 48. I like to think that if Obama had not been elected president, Biden would not be where he is today.
Born in Kenya!!!
Obama started this mess he is in it up to his eyebrows. They only care about how it might affect them. Selfish selfish people. Of course the teaching is that no one else matters after all we are to dumb to understand or figure out what is going on around us that’s how everyone missed the corrupt election that put him in office a second time.
Actually it was GWB who started this crap followed up by Marxist Obama then Trump had an exit strategy and then Biden blew it all up in one day so as to have the exit before Sept. 11th.
I wonder just how many people know the significance of the breaking of the muslim siege of Vienna on 9/11 1683 ? !! The islamists have remained very doggedly mentally at that date – in fact most have not ventured beyond the hatreds of the 12th Century.
I am sure he is rejoicing getting a massive influx of Muslims into this country with literally NO vetting! Wait and see what is in store for us from the “verdictive one”!
UMMMMM,don’t you mean,Barry Soetoro and Michael LaVaughn Robinson?
Does anybody care what these two have to say? I know I sure don’t! The only reason they are expressing sympathy is to get their faces out there!! And to mr Obama’s mrs I ask — who do you pray to??
They pray to allah the devil, that is the only one who would lister or like the worthless POS’s.
My thoughts, too!
Obuthead is as much of a cause for this catastorphe, as sockpuppet,dementia,joe, he released the leader of the taliban, for a deserter, and all of these terrorists, are back killing Americans and allies. Both of these incompetent, traitors put us where we are today, with their idiotic,killing policies.
Bullshit Barack Obama did this is 2014 by letting the Taliban prisoners go in Gitmo. Bin Laden was going to assassinate Obama he said in a letter Bin Laden wrote but even he knew the dangers and knew how compromised Biden was and incompetent to run a country Biden was. That’s sad 0sa Bin Laden didn’t kill Obama when he had the chance and it is too bad he didn’t take out Number 2 because we wouldn’t jave the country this way if he had done us that favor
Anthony Manzo
Won’t waste my time on these two !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, Oblamer, that’s your Mudslime buddies pulling that crap…
This is what the Biden Administration “entrusted” with the safe passage of Americans from Kabul:
Jihad, Martyrdom, and the Torments of the Grave.

who started ISIS and now your heartbroken
just look at the smug pus real heartbroken my butt
to bad your daugthers weren’t there
Obama had this planned all along he doesn’t care about Americans just like his senile Joe.

That jug-eared, jive-time, signifying buffoon Obama and that thing Moochelle acting like they care about American lives? What a joke!
Why wasn’t he so worked up over Benghazi
Because they were Americans and not his ilk.
Hillary told him not to be such a PUSSY !
What a laugh, the only thing they are heart broken over is the number of muslims killed in the attack as they could care less about the Military and tried to weaken our Forces while in office. Damn shame they were not present when the bombing happened to see the destruction.
Apart from the bombers themselves and their ISIS / Taliban commanders, the muslims present at Kabul Airport were assumed to be American ex-employees dumped by Biden and thus non-muslims in the eyes of the extremists. Theirs is a black & white landscape – you are either WITH them or you are The ENEMY ! Maybe there is something in this way of looking at the problem !!
Ridiculous. And outright insulting that these two un-Americans would have the moxie to even show their faces let alone assure us of their “broken hearts.” Give us all a break and take recluse on Martha’s Vineyard where you will be safe, surrounded by ill-gotten gains by vilely greedy neighbors.
Although old but it reinvented again by these two – crocodile tears. Wonder how much they charged for just saying they are heartbroken
Phony’s to the core! He is behind this, he needs GITMO with senile Joe, Milley, Austin, communist Blinken boy, and balance of the regime!
Hey, Barry, don’t pretend that you had no idea that this would happen. After all, it was a guy in your administration who warned you never to underestimate Quid Pro Joe’s ability to f*** things up. Oh, by the way, you might try a little introspection. ISIS rose up on your watch & it took Donald Trump to crush them. Oh, never mind. I just thought that I’d make a stupid suggestion.
Find Obama charge him with past treason, strip all his money away.
GITMO for this fraud scheme all involved!
Don’t be deceived, Obama is behind much of the Biden insanity.
I wish They was there, with the Dead.
Heartbroken? What did he do,loose his parking spot
Just for those who don’t know if there was fraud during the election. At the time of the election there were 133 million registered voters. Trump received 75 million votes and Biden received 80 million. That’s 155 million votes. That means that there were 22 million illegal votes! Trump won 75 million to Biden’s 58 million votes! All this can be verified very simply! Tell me again there was no fraud during the election!
Most of America knows, all of Europe knows, this election was a fraud.
Bull shit. bull shit, bull shit.
These two hate the United States and have said so!! But it’s great to make millions off the U.S. offices. The male version is behind this greatest scam on a country in history, he is the main puppet master! Reference the CBS interview at the end of his 2nd term!! He wanted a 3rd term and he has it now, destroying the U.S. Well get out you rotten bum! You are not an American!
why didnt you exit when osama bin laden was killed mission in Afghanistan was over.
