I'm hoping this is a move to buy time while they come up with a plan and the resources to go get them, but I'm not optimistic - the actions of this administration and the military leaders over the last six months have been a clown show (but I bet all our armed forces are up to speed on the diversity and sensitivity training )

Biden's track record on foreign policy has been dismal for a long time - but this is an all time low. And Biden can't pin this on Trump - Trump may have set the wheels in motion for the withdrawal, but all the clown show moves have happened on his watch. Besides, Biden has reversed nearly every Trump policy in place when Biden took office.
