Pike, true that Trump started initial talks of pulling out but he didn't. If he did the Taliban wouldn't be acting like this knowing full well he has no problem dropping MOAB's or any other force necessary to put them in check. They are like predators taking advantage of the sick and vulnerable. The world knows full well Biden is weak in every aspect. Biden is on vacation no statement, press secretary has out of office reply on.

I saw some folks saying goodbyes on Facebook as Kabul fell, they were Atheist, they are probably being rounded up and killed as we speak.

We invaded Afgan in order to get rid of Bin Laden who wasn't even there...

As usual this thread draw scrutiny, and rightfully so,in it's apparent display of a populous that can't recognize an obvious.

I missed those posts, but do see some pointing out how the present administration is inept, including mine.

we left lots of good weapons for the tali, many of them never fired and only dropped once.....planes, helos, arty, ammo dumps, fully stocked bases....now that's how you run a war on terror ..if you want to loose.

took the tali a week to control the whole country, we could not do that in 20 years there because we no longer know how to fight a war. We beat the japs/nazi's because we killed them by the bushel and bombed them into the stone age.....firebombed whole cities..nuked them...the tali laughs at us and this will embolden these people worldwide. Prepare.

They will be styling in all them hummers we left them, the price of burros just dropped. Old Joe is ruining another economy along with ours, maybe the Taliban needs some cheap labor we could ship some over there.

I honestly doubt 80 of the afgans or talibs can even use most of that equipment. Alot of it's probably gonna end up being sold on the street like what happened in Iraq. Most of the stuff like MRAPS ,MATV's ect require alot of matinence to run . The drones and UAV's will probably be sold off to other countries or just torn up for scrap. Honestly if it was ISIS getting all this yeah that's a different sore but average Taliban can barely aim a AK

Maybe that taste of freedom was what they needed to come to the realization that freedom is not something given... but earned.



Freedom is an American thing,it would be naive to assume anyone living under any body but a western civilization construct could obtain freedom.it's just not possible.
There is a reason we are referred to as a beacon to the world! Our puzzle was put forth over time, It's track record proven,..the defense of such questionable.

Again do not confuse linear warfare with and insurgency. Two different things. Remember what happened when we first pushed into Iraq and they where fighting a linear style ? I.e men in uniforms army against army tanks ect ? Yeah we annihilated them didn't take long either.
Then look what happens the second they stared fighting a guerilla war.

A wise general once said " You either fight the US asymmetrically or you fight them stupid ".

They are already hitting the main drag in them hummers all over the news piled on like flies on *U^, for a 3rd world people they just took a lot of territory back and survived the best equipped Army trying to kill them over the last 20 years.

^ what a disgrace......"we provided the afgan army with advanced weaponry and we are going to make sure they can maintain their air force"....what a joke joe...that B funny. Did you mean the tali air force? " we intend to maintain our diplomatic presence in afgan"...lol.

This guy is a tool and the USA under him is a joke. God help us...

we will be lucky to hold the airport so our people can get out....

Regardless if tactics. When it come to come somewhere like that area unless your able to either A. Get the populous completely on your side and with the balls to fight for there or B. Complete and total ethnic cleansing to the point no one is lest what so ever your just going to keep having kids, wives , cousins ect of the slain picking up arms to avenge theirs


When did the Japanese avenge?
