This proves how our Pentagon brass doesn't have the foresight to anticipate weakness in a crisis. General Milley has failed as well as the whole usurping administration.

Milley the Woke taking care of business. Not.

Senile "Senior Leadership" in the White House. Senile "Senior Leadership" in the Pentagon.
It's long past time that actual Americans in the military grow a pair and oust the "One World" socialists.

And their never was. And nobody with power, except Trump, ever thought beyond the next 3 week press cycle. And on it goes.

The Pento-gram spent 7 months going woke and villifying Trump supporters as the Taliban gamed the USA into humiliating defeat and tremendous cost.

The Pentagon and intel agencies are as surprised (and cluless) as Scarlett’s slave Prissy in Gone With the Wind -
“Yankees in Atlanta!”

Yeah but like learning about white privilege, gender pronouns and transsexuals is like more important and stuff.
What the hell would Patton say about all this today?

What did they expect? That the Third World politicians that we propped up for twenty years would have any backbone? Would be willing to lay down their own lives instead of those of American soldiers?
Does no-one in The Swamp study history?

We should have had the foresight to see that there was a potential for domestic enemies to take over our government, we weren’t prepared for it, it was just too hard to believe. Well it happened and we are paying for it big time now.

To paraphrase Sun Tzu - wars are won in the temples.
When American took over Afghanistan, we did not set up the “temples” to teach individual rights and freedoms. Plus it takes at least one and possibly two generation (20 to 40 years) to instill those values into the country.

Notice how none of these clowns takes personal responsibility—they spend all their time finding others to blame.
That is _exactly_ what losers do—and that is part of why they are losers.

Many brave young Americans will die as a result of these incompetent, vile, wothless American and Afghan “leaders” coming together at this sad moment of history.
