Jesus are you kidding me? This is the most ignorant administration ever. Jen needs to have an MRI ASAP. She is getting on Biden level dumb. Next thing we know she will be squating stacking spaghetti sauce on shelves to airports during the revolutionary war.

She is a bona fide idiot.

I'm sorry, but after 20 years and billions, if not trillions of dollars spent there, we don't owe them anything other than to say sorry, you're on your own we're out of here.

That's a horrible thing to do to those that risked so much.

I just feel bad for all of the Afghans that helped the US and NATO that can't get out. Taliban is absolutely going to punish them.

You misspelled murder.

 

[RavinDave]

They probably should just have gone with "strenuously object" - like the line in A Few Good Men. That would surely have the Taliban shaking in their boots.

Clearly, they can’t handle the truth!

China is prepared to recognize the Taliban as the legitimate ruler of Afghanistan if it succeeds in toppling the Western-backed government in Kabul.

There is no “if”

 

[RavinDave]

It’ll be interesting to see how the Taliban plays this with 3600 American and British troops coming to pull out our people. Do they want a fight or are they going to let us do what we need to do and get our people out? IMO they would be idiotic to try and get a Blackhawk Down moment that would get the drum beating for us to go back or reestablish ourselves .

They have nothing to worry about from this feckless administration.

 

[RavinDave]

The entire situation is lose / lose. There are no winners in this

Except the Taliban

Hey y’all, will you keep my family in your thoughts and prayers. My brother in law was on of the last units pulled from overseas and now they just got word the other day that his unit is on 2 hour call to go back. When Biden pulled everyone from overseas he left behind millions of dollars worth of military weapons and the taliban now has control of the weapons. Thank you all

No politics, but what has happened is phenomenal to conceive of.

This has to be by design. We can’t be that stupid

We have done it before. Look at all the equipment we left behind after the the Iraq war because it was considered to be too expensive to ship it back.

 

[AM64]

We have brought this madness on ourselves by believing we can sanitize war. We set up ridiculous ROE’s and hamstring our soldiers. We act like we can change hearts and minds but everyone knows you can’t. You either commit to all out war or keep the troops at home.

We develop extremely sophisticated weaponry and then neuter it with ROEs. It's almost like our politicians personally profit from throwing so much money at wars they don't seem to want to win.

it is unbelievable that they would think pad locks and a few armed guards would keep warehouses full of weapons safe.

Has to be. They said yes we will pull everyone out but like you said with full intentions of going back. But now our enemy’s are better armed.

We are that stupid. We’ve done it after every major war. Did the same in Iraq and then had to fight ISIS again.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, seven months ago the US had approximately 7,000 troops in Afghanistan, the war was over and the troops were training the Afghans and providing air cover. President Biden reduced their air cover and slashed the number of troops in the region, now he is pleading with the Taliban to not attack our embassy because, as expected, they are taking over. The Taliban is executing anyone with an affiliation to the US military.

I just got a chance to listen to more of the Mark Levin show on this topic. At around the 49:00 mark he interviews the former General Jack Keane on his expert opinion on the fall out of what we've seen on this topic. It's pretty interesting.

I thought standard protocol was to destroy any equipment you couldn't take back with you?

That’s what I’ve always heard. He told me that’s what the higher ups all said. He got news today that they will probably be gone by Friday if they will leave at all. When he got back from his last deployment he got fully vaccinated. Well the unit that was supposed to go this round doesn’t have enough vaccinated people now that’s why they are having to go again.

 

[Revived2002]

Exactly. This is the second time we have equipped the Taliban. It’s incredible.

Rambo 3. You know who was fighting the Russians there? Yep.

Sad, angering and terrifying.

9/11 anniversary just around the corner.

I do not think our country is safer because of this.

Biden Admin Instructs Kabul Embassy To Destroy American Flags As It Braces For Global Embarrassment

Democrat President Joe Biden’s administration has reportedly instructed embassy staff in Kabul to destroy American flags to minimize the embarrassment the administration will face through propaganda produced by the Taliban as the extremist group has rapidly seized large swaths of the country.

The memo added in bold font, “Please also include items embassy or agency logos, American flags, or items which could be misused in propaganda efforts.”

They mishandled the withdrawal by not evacuating embassy personnel and other officials first, leaving them exposed. It was poor strategy.
