Was this outcome anticipated? If it wasn't, why not?

[berg80]

More lies.
1. R's were criticizing Biden for abandoning $80b of US military equipment to the Taliban
2. R's were criticizing Biden for not authorizing a US sniper to kill the ISIS suicide bomber, after the Taliban said to kill him
3. R's were criticizing Biden for being held in CONTEMPT by the Brits and other US allies

Dotard has been criticized for not considering the consequences of an attack, conflicting rationales, unspecified conditions for victory, and producing juvenile videos of war.

I'm sure, Trump was going to push to keep Bagram open.

Ok, this link says $10b, so $80b is too high. Still too much to gift to the Taliban

Here’s the List of Billions in Military Equipment the US Left Behind for the Taliban

“The Taliban now has more Black Hawk helicopters than 85% of the countries in the world,” Congressman Jim Banks, a veteran, lamented. “But it's not just weapons. They have night vision goggles and body armor."

Equipment falling in to the hands of the Taliban was always going to happen after a withdrawal. It was exacerbated by the collapse of the cowardly Afghan army.

Iran doesn’t need to close the strait in a conventional sense. Simply creating a non-trivial risk that tankers might be damaged or sunk is enough to keep most tanker traffic from going through. In other words, even if Iran is militarily on its back, just keeping aerial and naval drones at ready or on patrol might be enough to cause a global oil supply crisis for the foreseeable future.

They need to conserve their drones to bonb american targets.The threat is enough.

It's a fact. Have you been asleep for the last two weeks?

We can agree on that. A well armed Afghan army of 700,000 got slaughtered by 30,000 Taliban.

What consequences were not considered? Its not a fact yet because none are listed.

No, he probably wants to be on the MSM circuit like Adam Kinzinger.

Finding a R willing to give an honest assessment of Dotard, not spew talking points, is rare. But becoming less rare as the orange brain stem sinks in the polls.

IOW, this..........."2. R's were criticizing Biden for not authorizing a US sniper to kill the ISIS suicide bomber, after the Taliban said to kill him".............is based on a lie. Unless you have evidence the sniper spoke to Biden.

Top Gabbard counterterrorism official Joe Kent resigns in opposition to Iran war​

In a bombshell announcement, the intelligence community’s top counterterrorism official said Tuesday he was resigning over the U.S. and Israeli war on Iran.

“After much reflection, I have decided to resign,” Joe Kent, the head of the National Counterterrorism Center, posted on X. “I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran.’’

Kent continued: “Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby.’’

You may need to take a moment to absorb this considering the amount of regime KoolAid you've consumed.
