Taliban Taking Over Afghanistan - Does anyone care?

[Orangeburst]

The more I think about this the more I believe it come be true. Could this be some clever way of carrying out a large arms transfer that would wildly unpopular? There have to be other angles in missing too.

Happened in Benghazi....like the Arab Spring days.
We probably have (2) choices..the incompetance of typical DC (most likely plausible) or something more geopolitical like a hedge against Iran?
Just spitballing, but that outreach to the Taliban was either "weak" or planned

I wonder how much money Biden gave them?

The truly pathetic part of this is that none of the Joint Chiefs had the balls to stand up to Biden and threaten to resign.

It seems to me, someone had to present this "strategy" to Biden as an option. Whoever that was, they need to be forced to resign immediately. Personally, I think they should be court-martialed, but that won't happen, so at least force them to retire. But I agree that it's ludicrous that the JCs just went along with this. Someone, some where along the line needed to step up and speak out on what a horrible strategy this was.

I wonder how they plan to get them out. They’re surrounded by hostile countries. This is so tragic.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

Gee, you seem like a good American.

Still blissfully unaware that both parties are complete chit shows.

Awww look at the backpedaling Democrat. Trying to get everyone to believe that you aren’t a severe left leaning liberal. Hilarious.

From what I read last night, "Operation Hercules" was not permitted to load most of the animals onto planes, and many were just let go at the airport. One of the women that led the rescue refused to leave them and chose to stay behind in Kabul.

Plenty of ways to get them out through Pakistan. That border is even worse than our own.

If I was president, I’d tell China to go and eat donuts.

I'd tell China to eat a fat one.

But that ain't going to happen.

As far as treason goes, wouldnt arming a terrorist organization like the tailban with vehicles and weapons be grounds...??? Of course they'd have to prove it was intentional...

I don't think you can claim it was an "accident" when you leave 4 C-130s, a squadron of tanks and artillery, and a half a million machine guns.

The U.S. should tell China to go **** themselves, but I don't trust Biden to do that. I think he's more likely to capitulate. Hope he proves me wrong though.

The head of PETA said she has received calls from current and former employees of the U.S. State Department telling her that service and working dogs were abandoned in Afghanistan.

Said some of the dogs have been let loose onto the streets of Kabul. Said these dogs are companion dogs and have no survival skills.

There would have to be a paper trail or something to make it stick...or wait till after the midterms and try then

It was left for the ANA who promptly surrendered. It's not treason, just utter incompetence.
