    Default Kabul madhouse

    Sounds like things are going from bad to worse in Kabul. The word is that the Taliban wants a peaceful transfer of power. I don't see that happening real soon if at all.

    This was bound to happen when the US pulled out. Too bad for the average Afghan citizen that ends up trapped there. I wish them the best.

    Yeah, it's going to be a crapstorm after we back out of that place. Any Afghan citizen that is even suspected to have helped U.S. forces will be executed.

    Just like the fall of Saigon

    It’s an insult to anybody who served there.

    Probably a good idea to pull out. Space Force is going to need all the help it can get.

    Right on cue. We only have 3 years and 4 more months of "Building Back Better".

    As an individual who was on active duty on 9/11, have supported the mission in and out of uniform for 20 years, had friends or co-workers wounded or killed in theater, I really can't post what I want to say without getting on an enhanced list.

    The Afghan military and police have surrendered unconditionally and have handed over all of the military equipment and arms that we left there so they could defend themselves and the people.

    So what.

    No more wasting our treasure and sacrificing our soldiers for a worthless dessert. Only beneficiaries of continuing the occupation are military contractors and suppliers.

    How come every single person on the planet knew this would happen when we left except the people that are supposed to know this would happen if we left? What a fucking waste this whole thing was. 19 years, trillions of dollars and too many dead and wounded Americans all for nothing.
