Media outlets across the political divide in the US and Britain have united in their condemnation over Joe Biden's handling of the Afghanistan crisis amid what is being billed the biggest foreign policy catastrophe in 65 years. 

Even Left-wing outlets such as CNN and The New York Times that would traditionally back a Democrat president have hit out at Mr Biden for his role in allowing insurgents to take Kabul after routing Afghan forces in just a week. 

The Wall Street Journal condemned Joe Biden's statement 'washing his hands' of the situation, saying it should 'go down as one of the most shameful in history by a Commander in Chief at such a moment of American retreat'.

WNU Editor: This unity among everyone in the media is striking and very rare. Case in point. Here are two commentaries from opposite sides of the political spectrum .... Taliban's Afghanistan takeover deals a harsh blow to Biden's 'America is back' foreign policy promise (Courtney Subramanian and Michael Collins, USA TODAY), and .... Biden Never Saw What Hit Him (Richard Fernandez, PJ Media). 

As I had mentioned two days ago. No US President can fully recover from this.
