The incompetence started long before Jan 21st 2021. It's too bad there were so few troops left by then that the generals had to rely on the Afghan Army way too much when they developed the final evacuation plan. Certainly the fact that the Afghan Army had been under attack by the Taliban and we were unmolested while preparing to leave, had to hurt their troops morale. That truce was one of many unmet conditions by the Taliban from the Surrender Accords that didn't stop Trump from withdraws over ten thousand troops in his final months in office. Another one they fail to met was cracking down on other Islamic Extremist. ISIS was actively blown shit up in Kabul during 2020.
