It has arisen owing to the appalling misjudgement of President Biden and the reluctance of NATO allies to join Britain in pursuing an ongoing security presence in the country.&nbsp; As a result, the world is now a more dangerous place, and that poses profound questions for our national foreign and defence policy.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Clarke pointed out, \u201cAgainst this backdrop, we ought all to feel a renewed surge of gratitude that Boris Johnson was able to defeat the menace of a hard left government taking power in this country just twenty months ago.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is the suggestion that our country should pay reparations to the Taliban-led government of Afghanistan that is so deeply offensive,\u201d Clarke asserted. \u201cAs they begin&nbsp;once again to murder, rape, enslave and brutalise their own population, and doubtless turn the country back into the safe haven for international terrorism that it was prior to 9\/11, for Britain to pay reparations to them would be the equivalent of paying reparations to Nazi Germany.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThese MPs hold such a warped worldview as to be unable to make any moral distinction between the West and our opponents,\u201d he continued. \u201cSadly, this seems the more likely.&nbsp; From their reluctance to condemn Russian use of biological weapons on UK soil through to their long-standing support for Iran, apologism for the IRA and fixation with the grim charade of Castro\u2019s Cuba, the hard Left in British politics have shown consistently that they will support any cause that stands against our country.<\/p>\n<p>He concluded, \u201cWe are fortunate to have a government that believes in the values of the West and that is clear-sighted enough to recognise the adversaries who will always seek to profit from any weakness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
