A source just indicated that along with the billions of dollars of military equipment that has been abandoned in Afghanistan, we also left behind a bunch of hard currency. Back in WWII we issued speical currency in Hawaii and North Africa for the sole purpose of being able to cancel the currency if it fell into enemy hands. Today we could simply do the same as it would only entail an overstamp or different colored ink.
“A source”? Pallets of Cash sounds like a fake story
Because Hunter doesn’t like to wash the special ink off his hands
We are witnessing a repeat of Benghazi with limited warehouse space for Sid Blumenthal to lease.
If you say so it must be true.
We don’t need a source or anything.
Nobody could possibly question you or your source.
Thanks for informing us all.
I did post the source as it appeared in a different thread.
Your “source” is a reader comment on a blog post taken from Gateway Pundit. I’m sorry, that’s about ten steps removed from legit.
Because Biden/Obama want to fund the Muslims.
I have a source that says that your source was assigned to overstamp the cash, but instead took it. Simple question is why has your source not been charged with a crime?
You know, Gateway Pundit would have a lot more credibility if they dropped the Pundit.
I hope it’s fake. If it’s real and he did this then it was done with intention. Think about it. He did everything opposite. There is 100 people telling him the correct way to do this. Especially generals and lower levels advising him. If your president you have enough around you that you can’t get things wrong.
I am usually a sceptic on this sort of matter, but if you say it’s true, I’ll have to check it out.
Thanks.
My point is why are we using regular currency in a war zone where it could easily be captured? Why not folow the 80 year old example and use a yellow seal or overstamp? These were the only curencies that were allowed to be used in these hostile areas.
Well, there was that shortage of toilet paper.
Why yes, here he is!
He just posted it on his blog!

With this bunch of bumbling idiots, the only time I would think something was fake news was if something good or patriotic happened.
Well, if the infrastructure and spending bills pass, they could use it for fuel to cook with.
Thanks for being the same as always, an annoying, arrogant jerk.
That would imply a presence of mind and some forethought to stave this off.
None of which we apparently have now.
