Afghanistan has officially fallen

You might think that the US public deserves answers as to what allowed for this, to happen so quickly, but can there possibly be any good answer?

Is our military leadership so inept at interpreting stability of situations that they actually believed they were leaving things in good hands? 
Did our military and government understand that over the past 20 years we essentially made 0 progress in Afghanistan, but simply failed to let us in on the secret that we were just wasting time. Did we simply use the change of administration as a way to slide out of a no win situation knowing coverage and criticism would be limited?  
What ultimately might this have to do with enabling an eventual attack on Israel?

Didn't the last administration initiate the withdrawal? 

Also, simple question... What do you political gurus think we should have done? What was the mission to begin with? Etc. 

If the mission became train their forces to defend themselves, how long should we stay there training them? At some point you had to leave them on their own. It can't be helped that they were weak and the training didn't help them. That shit can't be helped. We couldn't stay there indefinitely. We were bleeding over a trillion dollars per year there for apparently nothing. 

Nothing. Nothing to show for it but dead soldiers and damaged soldiers and an exploding national debt. 

Lol. Damn clown posse back here.

Here's Bormio praising how "courageous and right" it was back in 2020.

A few days old - but no less important.  Even if ignored by the press.  Long past time to end nation-building there and bring our young men and women home alive.  Against the pushback from the usual national security bureaucracy.  A courageous decision - and the right one.

Now?

It's incompetence.

Yeah. It's almost like they forget where they stood in praise of the orange man. All of them with orange rings around their mouth after choking on cheeto. 

It's wonderful that it's all still here for anyone with the will to go look and bring it back to the surface. 

This was a continuation of DJT's policies that they lauded. 

To be honest they aren't worth getting flat thumbs debating. They're that lost and stupid.

never seen this shit in my life

 

 

so sad

It's fucking terrible dude. 

The taliban is horrific. Those people had a small taste of freedom and were willing to cling to a fucking planes landing gears to avoid going back to what was before they knew freedom. 

Too bad their soldiers didn't stand tall and fight with that same type of heart.

VIETNAM PART TWO! The DIMMS lost BOTH wars, the American servicemen damn sure didn't!

You and your damn Dem bullshit!!

If the Afgan military after 20 years of training, supplies given and billions spent can’t hold their own country, why should US service men and women be in harms way any longer? The Afgan military are cowards, most simply turned over their weapons and gave up with their hands up probably saying “don’t shoot, you win”. The country didn’t fall with a fight, it was given to the Taliban. Fucking Afgan military cowards didn’t even fight!! Why is that our problem? You want your family member or friends over there fighting for a country that their own people won’t fight for? Fuck them and bring our people home!!!

I am not opposed to withdrawal.  I am in favor of it.  It is past time.  But the way it was done makes Saigon looked organized.

I thought you'd be among the coterie of clowns who didn't disagree with the withdrawal but "how it was done."

The Afghan military/government was so weak that Kabul fell even before we withdrew.

Not one more drop of American blood should be shed in that stone age shithole.

And any of you tough wannabes that think otherwise, there's a recruiter in most towns that will gladly sign you up to volunteer to prove your fake macho bullshit.

It always amazes me that many if the most "let's go kick their ass!" big mouths, never had the nuts to actually go do it.
