That should make it easy for US to resupply them since what they need will be standard issue.

> I wish I had a tribe right now right here in the US. That is a strange thought that just came to me. <

The Founders weren’t perfect. But they were smart enough to set up the United States as a melting pot. E pluribus unum – “Out of many, one”.

But now the Left is trying very, very hard to divide us into tribes. And it’s working. So maybe we won’t see tribalism in the US. But our children or grandchildren very well could.

At the time, almost all of us supported Bush.

Hindsight is 20/20 but really at the time, what choice was there?

We’ve had too many *pick the lesser of two evils* elections and it’s come back to bite us.

Yep! So, the MIC goes from selling the Afghans weapons to fight the soviets, to selling the US military weapons to fight the Afghans, and will soon switch back to selling the Afghans weapons to fight the Chinese.

No matter WHO’S in the battle, the MIC wins.

Hella yeah. We took ours everywhere but the shower. And when I was a DoJ guard, if so much as one bullet went missing from inventory, the bloodhounds were out.

It was in our general orders to destroy if they had to be abandoned.
We are being set up.

Here's what Biden said last month:

“The Taliban is not the North Vietnamese Army. They’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstances where you’re going to see people being lifted off the roof of an embassy in the United States from Afghanistan.” — Joe Biden, quoted in The Hill, 8/13/21

FWIW, there’s probably a few folks here in the USA that wouldn’t mind having a couple of those taxpayer-purchased rifles ...even just the lowers.

will be smuggled back here soon enough and sold. We can’t stop toddlers crossing the border sure won’t stop the rifles
