    Tell that to the veterans that had to serve over there. Politicised generals have FU another “humanitarian mission”

    Taliban in tanks? Hell, they rolled over the Afghan “army” in pick-up trucks—and not the big-tired behemoths driven by good ol’ boys here.

    Historically, it has always been easier to conquer than to control/govern. I suspect Afghanistan will continue to prove that maxim.

    To borrow another person’s comment, blaming Biden for Afghanistan is like blaming a waiter in a restaurant for poorly cooked food.

    But a lot of “wanna-be” americans will. On the other hand.. this is not that different than what America (and Canada) did during WW2 by rounding up all germans and japanese.. confiscating their property and putting them in camps labelling them traitors.

    The Taliban now have access to thousands of pieces of American military technology — tanks, trucks, helicopters, etc. Too bad so many of their “fighters” are illiterate. This may make reading the operating manuals rather difficult.

    They don’t have the resources to maintain those items. It won’t be long before they are all junk.

    Hey Little Gary, who was it who freed 5000 Taliban prisoners and sent them back to be terrorists again. The same guy who legitimized the Taliban by holding talks with them and promising to pull out US troops within 14 months. The RNC even put a page on their website boasting Trump had made peace with the Taliban. Of course the RNC has taken that page down, along with their other brags from 2020.

    I saw some Video yesterday of a C-130 taking off from Kabul Airport, the Pilot was popping Flairs the whole take off. The only reason to do that is to defeat a Heat Seeking Stinger Missile, Intel must have found out the Taliban “liberated” our stock from the Afghan Military. Not Good, not good at all, Air Force 1 & 2 needs to be Berry Berry Careful now. We all know Stingers work and can be used effectively by a Goat Herder just ask the Russians.

    Hey ammofool! Remember planes taking of from Baghdad popping flares (that’s the correct word btw)? You think the Iraqis were firing liberated Stingers? Umm, no. Russian 9K38 Igla, probably.

    What? You can’t draw a Humvee or something we actually left behind? Exaggerate much.

    No US citizens are KNOWN to have been hurt DURING THE COURSE OF THE EVACUATION. Which is quite different from hurt AT ALL. As Biden knows and has repeated. Blaming Biden for the war is as correct as blaming me for my great grandfather’s business mistakes. Blaming him for screwing up the evacuation? Yeah, I’d hear that message if you want to send it… though even there, it appears that he listened to “the Generals” instead of the other sources, so maybe we should blame them instead. Or share it out anyway.

    President Biden: “I will build back better the Taliban. Make the Taliban great again”.
