This reminds me of 1975 and the fall of Saigon.

Of course, easy pickings. The population certainly is going along with the Taliban taking over. And the Taliban happy to inherit all the wealth, buildings etc. we’ve left behind. It’s a win for the Taliban no matter how it’s painted.....let the WarLord battles begin!

I wonder if President Ghani has contacted this guy yet. Because he would fit in perfectly.

An Afghan national army was never going to work; the country is made up of tribes, and that comes first with them.

I was 18 in 1968. I’m now one year into my eighth decade.
Nothing has been learned from US military history after 1945.
NOTHING.

I think we’re watching Biden’s “deal” with the Taliban playing out. Iran is happy.

Biden lost Afghanistan.
They need the money for their Pet Illegals

This is the same government who wanted us to leave.

Haven't you heard? They are blaming Trump for not leaving enough troupes there when he left office.

[[I wonder how the press is going to dance around this leftist disaster]]
They are all praying and sacrificing to Molech right now that the situation turns around somehow and,
If by any chance the afganistanis somehow pull off a miracle and defend themselves without anyone’s help this time, the left will pounce on it claiming it was all part of the plan in the first place, claiming that is was ‘tough love’ that got them to defend themselves.

"Bushies had an equal hand in this disaster." Don't get me started on the inbred Bush Crime Family.

I think Ghani may want find a pilot and a plane with a lot of fuel. These terrorists don’t seem to be slowing down in the least.
