No parody can compete with the reality of this administration’s daily barrage of nonsense and ineptitude.
If only you had to blow in a breathalyzer to start those planes.
In today's Washington, people eschew the Samurai Code in favor of the Hillary Code.
Say you take full responsibility, but keep your job, your perks, and go on as if nothing happened.
Yes. #45 was like a good 1911 model semi automatic. Always reliable.
What’s the going rate for an F18 with no Papers?
they don’t know where? were they not sqawking? and were the planes deserting soldiers, or were they thinking they were ‘rescuing’ the aircraft?
Ultimate incompetence. The repo man can shut down a car and go right to it’s location and get that Cadillac back. Should be easy for the genius government too copy civilian doings on this too.
But wait, military intelligence is a classic oxymoron why they don’t even use ignition keys. Probably for fear of loosing them too.
They have: https://youtu.be/8T1txBRoQxQ
That’s okay, as long as they know where all the transgenders are…
They have to be doing this on purpose. Cloward-Piven.
Hunt For Red October!
This business will get out of control and we’ll be lucky to live through it.
I wonder if their failure/incompetence is deliberate, and not accidental at all?
For anyone interested....
From Wiki:
As of March 2011, the Afghan Air Force (AAF) had 44 rotary-wing and 13 fixed-wing aircraft in serviceable condition. By the end of 2011, the AAF had 16 C-27As (on loan from the U.S government) and 35 of the new Mi-8 Hips while continuing to operate the older Mi-17s and retiring the An-32 fleet. Further growth of the AAF depended on decisions regarding the size of the Afghan National Army which, in turn, determined AAF requirements. In a country of rugged terrain possessing limited ground transportation options, the Afghan Armed Forces depends heavily upon AAF fixed- and rotary-wing aircraft for airlift of soldiers and supplies between corps operating locations, medical and casualty evacuation, and transport of human remains. The Afghan government also relied on the AAF for transportation of election materials during the 2009 presidential election. It was announced in October 2011 that the Afghan Air Force would be provided with 145 multi-type aircraft and 21 helicopters.[37] By the end of 2011, the Afghan Air Force had a total of 4,900 airmen and personnel.
By 2016 the Afghan Air Force was planned to expand to 8,000 airmen and 145 operational aircraft.[38] To that end there was continuing expansion in infrastructure, training and maintenance facilities. The US also purchased modern equipment and aircraft including Russian Mi-17 helicopters. Significant investment went into purchasing modern training aircraft such as MD 500 helicopters and fixed-wing Cessna 182 and 208 planes.
In 2016–17, the United States Department of Defense (DOD) aimed to procure 30 additional armed MD-530F helicopters and 6 additional A-29 attack aircraft to replace the Mil Mi-35 in service with the AAF. DOD asked for funds to add an additional five AC-208s to the fleet. The requested FY2017 Afghan Security Forces Fund (ASFF) budget, including the 23 additional funds for the first year of the planned procurement, went to Congress on 10 November 2016.[39]
On flying the planes, we trained the 911 buzzards, got fooled once, this was in our general aviation industry. One would think that our genius military high echelon would not train a potential enemy to use and or steal a weapon of mass destruction. The light switch allegiances shown in DC this past election theft should have been a tell and not even Taliban.
I would say no, they were not. That was probably the first item on the checklist, to turn off.
Austin and Milley need to be making license plates—until they repay the taxpayers for the cost of the missing planes in full or die—whichever comes first.
Were any of these aircraft armed with nuclear weapons?
Are you kidding?! Good grief this admin is such a disaster;
