There needs to be an almighty purge of incompetents and Leftists in the US military. They’re off to a good start firing most of the Joint Chiefs but it needs to go much much deeper down the ranks than that.
I take it Milley is unpunishable at this point?
This Douche absolutely need to be fired and exited from the Army. I don’t care if he was Delta or not.
“I understand that the commanding general of the 82nd Airborne Division has told the commander of the British special forces at the Kabul airport to cease operations beyond the airport perimeter.
Maj. Gen. Christopher Donahue has told his British Army counterpart, a high-ranking field-grade officer of the British army’s 22nd Special Air Service Regiment, that British operations were embarrassing the United States military in the absence of similar U.S. military operations, according to multiple military sources. I understand that the British officer firmly rejected the request.”
Canadians, Australians and others heard the same from this @sshole
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is seeming to be a dud...
Never before in American history has the US military retreated farther and faster in such a short space of time.
Joe Biden, Lloyd Austin, Mark Milley and the rest of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have never been prouder.
Excellent.

Several times in my 33-year career, I advised my boss to take one course, and he chose another. I faithfully executed his orders because I got to speak my peace, and he was the boss. In the cases I recall, exactly what I said would happen, happened. Only at one company, the Israeli owned one, was I then blamed for the cockup. I was fired as a sacrifice by the Israeli company, but not the others. My point is, don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater without thoroughly sifting through it first. Good officers should not be sacrificed because they followed orders. If they didn’t, would the military be trustworthy in the future?
I second that motion!
That war made a mockery out of our brave war dead, it left billions of dollars of military equipment behind and left countless people behind. Then it allowed the enemy to just walk in and take over. We literally left there with out tails between our legs.
Why? Because a more profitable MIC war between Ukraine and Russia was being ginned up. Ukraine is a much better laundromat for the Biden Crime Family as they have much more control over it.
i’d like to know who recommended what - i can’t believe all generals agreed with disastrous plan.
That Afghanistan withdrawal sure did get under PDJT’s skin. The loss of lives, the loss of equipment, and the loss of a strategic US base. It was a disaster.
I always wonder how new Directors like Hegseth know who they can trust to conduct investigations. It’s not like they’ve had years, or even months, to become acquainted with the staff within the departments.
George Washington was always firing Generals that messed up.
I have been following General Michael Eric Kurilla for a couple of decades now since Michael Yon wrote about him during the Iraq war. He is a war fighting beast and President Trump recently praised him for actions his command took in the war on terror.
As a lieutenant colonel he entered a burning armored personnel carrier to rescue two soldiers, and he also had one leg shot out from under him in a close quarters firefight (but kept on fighting). I continue to pray for him. I believe that he is now CENTCOM commander.
Pres Trump tried for 4 years to work with, and be nice to, generals and commanders in the military, and they threw his overtures back in his face and even plotted coups agaisnt him and collided with enemy nations agaisnt him. Now they feign surprise that he is saying no more Mr nice guy? They spit in his face every chance they had. Still he tried to be decent towards them! Now he is forced to act in a sense of self protection, and in the interest of the nation to minimize the threats posed by military commanders who refuse to work with their commander in chief, but in no way can th3y claim that he didn’t give them every chance to act civilly.
I think Webster dictionary needs to add a new term TDS, Trump derangement syndrome, because it seems that it really is a mental/emotional problem that affects people’s abilities to be decent and civil. And also add in MDS, Musk derangement syndrome- the mentally unhinged are coming out of the woodwork because of pres Trump and Musk running things in th nation.
I’d say any that were involved in any way, of making that decision.
An officer carrying out the idiotic order of their senior officer shouldn’t be held to this standard.
