Looks like Taliban is holding off until foreigners leave. As bad as the situation is at least they aren’t ransacking the city. Yet

All the isolationists over the past five years are now claiming we need to stay in Afghanistan.

Are you so arrogant that you believe you are the only person in the world?

They are “keeping us safe”, just like the vaccines....

The U.S. intelligence agencies had to have knowledge of the planned coordinated Taliban attacks and takeover of cities across Afghanistan. Biden knew, Kamala knew, Defense Secy Austin knew, Secy of State Blinken knew, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Miley knew, Susan Rice knew, Ron Klein knew, Nancy Pelosi knew, Chuck Schumer knew and they all pretended everything was a okay.
This hate America Biden cabal In my opinion are doing everything to destroy America from within.

Afghan Army had 350,000 with American weapons. Taliban has 85,000. Afghanistan rejected what we have to offer, they prefer the Taliban.

“The Taliban is not the North Vietnamese Army. They’re not remotely comparable in terms of capability. There’s going to be no circumstances where you’re going to see people being lifted off the roof of an embassy in the United States from Afghanistan.” — Joe Biden, quoted in The Hill, 8/13/21

Actually that’s correct regarding the Taliban, a month ago they had relatively few men and little equipment. But the difference was that Afghan Army proved to not exist, so a couple of Louisiana State Troopers could have seized the country.
