Saigon.
Hey I’ve got a great idea. Let’s send about 5,000 American soldiers over there to get chewed up in the middle of this. They’re volunteers, after all, as Bill Clinton so cleverly pointed out.
Saigon.
The Fall of Saigon April 30, 1975

We will be lucky to get our people out...and Biden wants to put more in harms way...
Except the Taliban doesn’t believe in re-education camps. This is going to be a bloodbath of mongol proportions.
In the course of the past year, a new belief has emerged in the town: the belief in war against Iraq. That ardent faith was disseminated by a small group of 25 or 30 neoconservatives, almost all of them Jewish, almost all of them intellectuals (a partial list: Richard Perle, Paul Wolfowitz, Douglas Feith, William Kristol, Eliot Abrams, Charles Krauthammer), people who are mutual friends and cultivate one another and are convinced that political ideas are a major driving force of history. They believe that the right political idea entails a fusion of morality and force, human rights and grit. The philosophical underpinnings of the Washington neoconservatives are the writings of Machiavelli, Hobbes and Edmund Burke. They also admire Winston Churchill and the policy pursued by Ronald Reagan. They tend to read reality in terms of the failure of the 1930s (Munich) versus the success of the 1980s (the fall of the Berlin Wall).
Are they wrong? Have they committed an act of folly in leading Washington to Baghdad? They don't think so. They continue to cling to their belief. They are still pretending that everything is more or less fine. That things will work out. Occasionally, though, they seem to break out in a cold sweat. This is no longer an academic exercise, one of them says, we are responsible for what is happening. The ideas we put forward are now affecting the lives of millions of people. So there are moments when you're scared. You say, Hell, we came to help, but maybe we made a mistake.

Biden will pay the ransom just like Obama did at Benghazi.
Then the Democrat Party Crime Syndicate will get their cut of the ransom money.
We pay our enemies and the Democrats.
Good scam.
My panties are always in a wad.
Do they wait for the 20th anniversary of 9/11 to blow up our embassy? I kinda wonder if we will torch it ourselves before that to avoid the optics.
Freegards
20 years of training and they collapse in less than a month.
Our training program failed, but I am sure if we try it over and over again it may work sometime somewhere...probably needed more emphasis on diversity training...
;-)
Were it up to me I’d send our great army leader, the woke joke, over to lead the defense.
Too much information for me.
Try that line on the ladies.
Yes, you will hate Bill Crystal all the more.
They don’t have to get chewed up. That’s the problem.
PsOps Now. Just like they did in Fallujah:
Kabul Afghani person. In two days non stop bombing and muzzle strikes will commence in the city. They will extend approximately in a one mile or more radius from the US Embassy. Time to move.
Thank You and God Bless America.
I’ll bet Taliban has something big planned for 9/11.
But over here we have nothing to worry about from foreign terrorists. The domestic terrorists, white supremacists is where we expect an attack to come from, doncha know. /sac
Training Afghans was impossible. Not my assignment but everyone I’ve talked to doing it stormed away in disgust.
And lots of them confirming all three Afghan Muslim men want to do is rape boys.
Perimeter defense technology. Let nothing out of the country, not even kites.
Sounds like Kabul airport is going to be Afganistan’s Alamo. Let’s hope it doesn’t end the same way.
US accelerating embassy personnel withdrawal:
