I have a genuine concern that something’s going to happen before all boots on the ground are evacuated. The Taliban is emboldened and have the Russian and Chinese to back them. They could take out a few loaded planes with little repercussions, and the White House would just deflect.
It’s like the Alamo without the competent leadership.
Thanks Joek and your handlers.
“military chiefs admitting they can only continue as long as the Taliban allows it.”
If true this is a rather weak statement coming from the US military.
Just saw they are letting non-afghans in..
translation the 50,000 Afghans that worked for the west are toast
one said all they have to do is google his name to see that he worked for the US
also explains reports yesterday that the US might just leave those Afghans behind
They could take out a few loaded planes with little repercussions, and the White House would just deflect.
Nailed it. Hell, let everyone leave. Let all the civilians, aid workers, reporters, etc leave. Free and safe passage.
Last two C17s, loaded with GIs. Blow those things out of the air and nothing will happen.
Sounds to me like this guy left Great Britain and took up residence in Afghanistan years ago. His wife may even be an Afghan national, for all we know.
How's that working out for you, bloke?
Besides everyone in the Biden Administration, who didn’t see this coming?
Only people who believes that men can get pregnant could possibly be this stupid.

BREAKING REPORT: Taliban Tells Joe Biden to WITHDRAWL ALL US TROOPS by September 11 – The 20th Anniversary of the 9-11 Attacks...
At least there are no more mean tweets and germany and france (the world) likes us now
It looks like that US “troop deployment” is to somewhere far away from Kabul....
Assume the position of the Taliban for a minute. How much $$$ should you ask from Biden to ensure everyone gets out and how often do you ask for more?
Or Dien Bien Phu with civilians.
It’s worth noting that the Taliban is not a disciplined army like the NVA were when they took Saigon. So if some Taliban guy wants to take down an airplane, he’s gonna take down an airplane.
is that a joke or real?
No kidding. Taliban have the upper hand here. Biden and Woke Milley let it happen.
When people die..and they will...we deserve the blame from other nations.
I am disgusted by Biden and Milley
Ping!
Biden and Trump plan would have removed all troops by Sept 11 anyway.
Looks like Biden’s fiasco is turning out to be a 55 DAYS AT KABUL. With no Charlton Heston or David Niven to organize things.
