At some point assertions of incompetency becomes an excuse for enemy action.

These days, it's looking more and more like the true enemy is the enemy from within - regardless of the motivation

Yes.

The war is here.

They have USED patriotic sentiment to fuel wars on behalf of alien peoples.

Never again.

Totally share your dismay with the CDC

Started my career in medical research at a hospital that was Level 1 regional resource center.

Most of the seriously bad cases from several surrounding states came our way.

The CDC was calvary called in via .gov biz jets when when we got a rare or especially serious case of infectious disease case over our heads.

Really respected and admired those guys. Heck, I wanted to BE one of those guys.

Don't recognize the CDC I am seeing here and now

Now it's like, et tu, CDC

Dien Bien Phu. What happens if our guys get in but the Taliban wreck the Kabul Airport so we can’t fly in or out? This could get very bad.

It will interesting to follow the chain of orders leading to the middle-of-the-night evacuation of Bagram AB.

That was deliberate military sabotage.
