Defense Secretary Orders Six Commercial Airlines to Help Ferry Afghan Refugees

[surada]

Wait...the Taliban is preventing us from getting people into Kabul airport but they won't prevent people from getting to Bagram?

You're an asshole

They shut down Bagram on July 7th.

 

[Lesh]

A. We didn't have the forces (without a troop surge) to hold Bagram in the face of a determined Taliban attack.

B. We had no way to get people TO Bagram through 40 miles of Taliban controlled countryside.

C. You're an asshole

 

[bodecea]

Our military doesn't have cargo planes?

Of course we do, and I'm sure they have been con-figured for passengers....but 6 more large commercial planes will make the evacuation faster. Duh.

 

[bodecea]

126 of these bad boys sitting idle. Joe’s handlers are playing political theater.

Who said they are idle?

 

[lantern2814]

We had nowhere near enough troops to hold Bagram airbase and no way to get people across Taliban controlled areas to get them THERE...You stupid wannabe armchair general

Thanks to Xiden you ignorant fuck.

Thanks to Xiden you ignorant fuck.

Trump left office with only 2500 troops in all of Afghanistan

Trump would have had plenty of force at Bagram because it wouldn’t have closed. Our military there could have easily gotten civilians out. You struck out again Lush.

 

[lantern2814]

Trump left office with only 2500 troops in all of Afghanistan

And no casualties in 18 months because the Taliban feared Trump. They laugh at Xiden. Loser.

 

[lantern2814]

Who said they are idle?

If they weren’t idle, they wouldn’t need to commandeer civilian planes. Derp.

Thanks to Xiden you ignorant fuck.

Trump praised the Taliban at his rally in Alabama.

No he didn’t. Totally debunked in that pathetic thread attempt. Weak effort. Another pathetic attempt to deflect to Trump.

'What traitors do': Trump slammed for praising Taliban at Alabama rally

During his 90-minute speech in Alabama on Saturday night, former president Donald Trump praised the Taliban and talked up his relationship with them at the same time that President Joe Biden is attempting to conduct the evacuation of Americans out of Afghanistan. Using the chaos in Afghanistan...

Using the chaos in Afghanistan as a springboard to criticize Biden, the former president called the Taliban "great negotiators" and "tough fighters" before adding, "...with me in office the Taliban would not have ever dreamt of capturing our airfield or parading around with our American weapons."

Critics of Trump were quick to note that his negotiations with the Taliban led to the release of 5,000 of their members which has contributed to the turmoil in the country as the U.S military leaves after a fruitless twenty-year war.

Prisoner trade off is common among negotiations. He got Afghanistan to release their Taliban prisoners and the Taliban did the same. You know, like when that Kenyan lawn jockey released five major war criminals for some lowly American private that deserted his post? Yeah. One of those people he released is now leading the Taliban in Afghanistan.

If it weren’t for hypocrisy you people would be silent

Bo Bergdorf?

 

[surada]

Liar. 60 km to the airport.

I already posted a correction with a link. Its only 40 miles from Kabul, but dangerous travel, pig.

Obama released 5 NOT 5,000.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Obama released 5 NOT 5,000.

And got what for these high profile enemy combatants, one American deserter? At least the Taliban released Afghan fighters back to the country. In the agreement Trump said if one of those 5000 were found to be killing Afghan or American troops, we were going to come down on them like a boulder flying down a hill. Of course that was off the table once Dementia took over.

Oh come now.. Trump is ever the gasbag.

He may be, but no American solder died by the Taliban in the last 18 months of his presidency, so apparently they feared that gasbag. Now they are just laughing at us.

You can't stand being laughed at? How many lives is that worth to you?
