JUST IN - General Milley admits that U.S. intelligence agencies could not have foreseen the Taliban's rapid rise to power: "There was nothing that I or anyone else saw that indicated a collapse in 11 days."

It’s a mess. Made worse by people who simply won’t admit they made a mistake, but more importantly don’t seem able to project an air of competency.
Where President Biden? Riding the merry-go-round?
Absolute MIA.
It’s times like this that are causes for concern, as the White House seems frozen and unable to engage in little more than stern warnings.
Hopefully there’s some behind the scenes diplomacy going on.
“This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we’ll be lucky to live through it.” - probably going through the mind of many American civilians at the airport in Kabul, or unable to get to the airport.
for crying out loud- EVERYONE knew way baCK when obama announced that there was gonna be a deadline for leaving that the MOMENT the military did, chaos was gonna erupt- very quickly- IF ‘noone’ in the military knew- then holy crap, our country is in much bigger trouble than first thought-
the ONLY acceptable words out of that pigs snout are I RESIGN!
Bad news: He’s lying
Worse news: He’s not lying
Worst news, he’s still in command.
Military commanders have killed themselves for much less.
Incompetence. Gen. Milley came up through the ranks and undoubtedly gave briefings to his superiors wherein he shaded certain facts or omitted rather obvious conclusions. In short, gas-lighted his superior officer. Now he gets to be Chief of Staff and he doesn’t have an instinctive feel that he’s being lied to? Willful stupidity as well as incompetence.
Sack Milley
Worst administration ever.
Two gigantic self-inflicted humanitarian crisis in 7 months.
Border and Afghanistan.
spit
That’s where I was headed. 😂
Lying liars gotta lie. Nobody could see this coming except for Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Helen Keller, Jose Feliciano and Louis Braille. Perhaps if our entire government wasn’t so corrupt, concerned with people’s right to stick their sex organs where they don’t belong and with dividing the citizens by race and religion, General Frilly could have seen this coming, too.
Did I hear Milley say that something like… We will do everything we can for as long as we can to get our people out of Afghanistan? ..... That is about as weak a statement as could possibly be made. It basically admits we can’t do very much so don’t blame us.
Abandoning Bagram in the beginning of July should be hammered at every member of Biden’s administration. I bet many of the so-called journalists don’t even know about that. And if they do, will they bring it up when it speaks so bad for the administration? Even if they’re too stupid to figure that you should hang onto your huge air base while you get your people out of Afghanistan, they should care that the Taliban released 5000 prisoners from the prison there.
Hundreds of billion a year?
F-ing dumb ass you are there general.
Head real far up your woke ass.
Maybe he has spent too much time concentrating on the dangers of white supremacy and making our Military woke by reading all those racial equity books to notice what’s happening in the world.
General Miley: “Not my fault. Now, as we were discussing , our most important mission is insuring our troops understand and accept the concepts of Critical Race Theory and that is really going well. So he news is not all bad.”
When I worked in a high level management job and we were involved in risk management we always had someone whose job it was to think of the off the wall considerations. That’s just basic risk management.
Did these West Point clowns miss that class?
Disgrace Milley couldn’t see it because he had his head too far up Biden’s butt at the time.
And 17 agencies whose job it is to know.
He is lying. They know everything about that sh*thole and the cowards who make up that so called army
