How many of our citizens are back?
How many of our citizens are there?
How many of our citizens are trapped in other parts of the country with no hope of rescue?

Start there…

Here's what's happened in Afghanistan over the past 24 hours:

• Order has been restored at Kabul airport.
• Evacuation flights are operating.
• The Taliban has announced a "general amnesty" for government officials.
• The US embassy in Kabul is still operating, coordinating the evacuation of US citizens and "vulnerable Afghans."
• Kabul remains calm, and the Taliban is not targeting American citizens or diplomatic personnel.
• President Biden authorized an additional $500 million in aid to Afghan refugees.
• He also announced that in addition to the Afghan refugees authorized earlier this month, he planned to expand refugee access to Afghans who worked for US NGOs and news agencies.

A+ Unless people aren’t safely evacuated.

I would get every American out alive and select Afghan assets. Exactly what Biden will do.

A successful withdrawal of Afghanistan will be if every American soldier and civil service worker gets out alive. How else will you measure success?

With Biden in charge, yes, this ^ is the best you could hope for. If we had a normal president who is competent, we would have much higher expectations than that.

We left it for tbe Afghan government to fight the Taliban, not for the Taliban.

 

[Desperado]

Our weapons are state of the art and require training and maintenance support.
They will not be much use to the Taliban other than to sell them

Im sure there are Russian and Chinese assets that would be more than happy to show them the finer points of their operation

At this point what is the difference? If your generals could not see this comming they should resign

The difference is 20 years of arming and training.

The media try to scare Americans about violent predators a million miles away...instead of the criminals being bused into their neighborhoods from prisons, our wide-open border, and Afghanistan itself.

We saw provenance after provenance falling to the Taliban long before they got to Kabul it should have been clear to the powers that be the Afghan government was not going to survive without in country military support from the U.S. When the administration decided not to do that they should have started getting that equipment out it’s not like they didn’t know who’s hands it would fall into when the government fell.

That’s not how we do things.

That's how we did it. They've been fighting for years now, not us.

Retard, we've been doing it for almost 20 years now. Under Bush-R (7 years), Obama-D (8 years), Trump-R (4 years), Biden-D (7 months).

So what's with the "you" bullshit?
