President Joe Biden was reportedly caught on film as he daringly checked his watch while paying tribute to the fallen Kabul heroes.
The shocking incident involving the President took place at a ceremony that marked the return of the 13 slain US servicemen who reportedly lost their lives in Thursday’s explosion. The horrifying suicide attack by the ISIS-K killed more than 170 people, including 13 American soldiers, reports confirmed.
During the early hours of Sunday, Biden traveled towards Dover AFB to pay tribute to the war heroes who died fighting for the country. With appropriate protocols in place, the President arrived on time and stood silent as an aura of sorrow and grief-filled the air.
However, things took an unexpected turn when Biden appeared to double-check his watch. This was during the moment he oversaw the dignified transfer of the soldiers.
Clearly, such an act by the President of the United States was not something anybody was expecting. Therefore, it reportedly sparked major outcry and backlash amongst US citizens.
With many parents of the slain heroes present at the ceremony, the incident added more heat to an already growing incident.
As it is, many Americans hold the President and his administration responsible for the explosion as they feel it was an untimely withdrawal of troops from the war-torn nation.
Just last week, many Republicans claimed that the President should resign at the nearest date. Moreover, they also added how Biden should be ashamed for having blood over his hands after 13 US servicemen lost their lives.
During the ceremony, Biden met with many of the families of the victims involved in the attack. And that’s when he went on to state how their bravery, as well as selflessness, allowed more than 100,000 evacuees to reach the US with ease.
At the moment, the US is in its final stage of withdrawal. This news was recently confirmed by the Pentagon. But whatever the case may be, it now appears that Biden checking his watch during an occasion like this just might make many question his real agenda.
