I heard on different news breaks on two different radio stations yesterday that experts were estimating it would take 60 to 90 days for them to take kabul. Looks like 60 to 90 hours would have been more accurate.

My first thoughts is, who is providing logistical support for them?
The answer I am sure our intelligence knows.

But maybe no one is. Maybe the taliban is that good.
That’s a testament to how good our military was for twenty years, in a remote, rough, and very large country against forces that have over for decades of practice at asymetric warefare.

“providing logistical support for them?”

We did when we left all the hardware intact, plus the so called afghan army is defecting or going home in large numbers.
