Those TRUMP haters and Afghanistan …

[Grey Ghost]

Afghanistan and iraq were a knee jerk reaction brought on by a catastrophic failure of our intelligence community in 2001. Somebody had to pay the price for that failure and it sure as hell wasn't going to be the political elite or their anointed buds running any of the alphabet agencies.

Ask the families who lost loved ones on 9-11 who paid. Ask the families of the dead and wounded soldiers who served there who paid. Ask the citizens of those two counties who paid.

The snowflakes in the crapital building said they feared for their lives in the January awakening and they weren't even in the building. Wondering how the dc chimps would feel if they were sitting in the Kabul airport.

There were 980 US cargo planes that left out of Bagham Air Base carrying US equipment and troops. Here is a list of equipment that the Afghan Army and Air force has and it looks like a collection of old US and Soviet equipment.

Yes Gary, we can only hope the people in this country will not repeat the sins of the past in the way they treated our Vietnam Vets. I had just graduated from boot camp waiting for my flight back to Phoenix when a lady pointed a finger at me and my Buddy calling us “baby killer”, my quick response to her was, “I haven’t had the opportunity yet”.

Thinking that somehow you can just drop democracy off like a UPS truck upon another country riddled in dysfunction, factions, sects, warlords and where the actual government controls a only a sliver of the country, is a mistake.


When your purpose is to track down the people who were behind 9/11, and said country offers to turn them over and you say no, that's a mistake.


When you along with the Northern Alliance beat back the Taliban, and the Taliban offers surrender of their last stronghold, and you say no, that is mistake.


When you request release captured Taliban prisoners to the tune of 5,000 of them as a negotiation tool, that is a mistake.


When you recognize insurgents and negotiate a May 1 withdrawal with them rather than the actual Afghan gov, that is a mistake.


When the Taliban leader, is one of those you have released from prison and now de facto leader of Afghanistan, that is a mistake.



Afghanistan has been a 20 year mistake regardless of president. We don't learn from history. In fact, we don't learn from the history of others because Russia spent 10 years there dealing with kind of insurgents, only to do the same thing we just did.

Yes. To put this into perspective, there are about 60,000 Taliban forces in Afghanistan, the standing Afghanistan Army was about 300,000+.

You can lead a horse to water, give the arms to guard the pond, but you can't make em drink.

I'm not sure if Barack Hussein is the puppet master, but I am sure that Biden is the puppet...

If only General Berger had more transgenders, more females, and an earlier start to critical race theory training we would have totally won this.

I wonder what this is going to do to the "Green-New-Deal"? Seeing as battery technology centers around lithium batteries at this moment and all of the worlds known lithium deposits are in China and Afghanistan. Oh, and Greenland. Didn't Trump want to buy Greenland??? I seem to remember the haters thinking that was a stupid idea.

Billy, we will be beholden to China for our batteries, they will control all the lithium, and they will let the Taliban rule Afghanistan like the heathens they are as long as China gets the Lithium., and the opium.
