If this situation does turn into a disaster
zone, I am sure something more will happen.
Looks to be a more volatile place than
Beirut circa 1983, I hope every one survives
President Joe’s folly.

Why didn’t the Taliban kill them, even though they easily could have?

They are Taliban agents, all 640 of them.

We are such suckers.

I’am sure that Nancy, Chuck, and Joe will have them all voting in the 2022 elections.

I heard that too. I think it was under Clinton that there was a real switch. Resignations, either out of shame, or out of principled protest, became a thing of the past.

These clowns can pound they helped install this incoherent boob of a pervert out of their own greed Trump while flawed in some ways was a fighter willing to at least fight and stand for the greater good.
But because his willingness to fight and attempt to solve things threaten their gravy train they choose to betray no matter the costs they should be tried for treason.

You own it bitches!

The Perfumed Princes of the Pentagon need to be tossed for incompetence because they are responsible for this mess. If we are going to end up in war with the ChiComs it cannot be with these non-entities in command. They would get all Americans killed.

These are the pukes that have been walking around talking smack about America and Americans in general and they need a comeuppance.

Ungrateful, incompetent, and useless nithings.

here's a joke for everyone.

Why did the Biden and the Pentagon lose the war in Afghanistan?

The Afghan jihadis refused to use the proper gender pronouns and the US Army went to a “safe space”.

"These are the pukes that have been walking around talking smack about America and Americans in general and they need a comeuppance."

They have been praising diversity, trannys, and poofters while slandering innocent troops by calling them racists, white supremacist's, and extremists. Well, Generals, who exactly caused the disaster in Afghanistan? Hint: We know for sure who is NOT responsible don't we?

You are prob right. All of them, men who would not stay to 0rotect their own daughters and wives. Well I am personally over that too. I know the evil that is waiting them, but the first evil was fathers not standing up. We have our own country to care for.

Obama never had leaks like this. Nobody respects and/or fears Biden.

I have a friend who works as an Army recruiter. Big strong white dude, about 30 years old.

I had no idea how woke this guy is until last summer, with the BLM and Antifa riots. Since then, it’s a constant spew of ant-American BLM bullshit. Totally brain washed.

Rainbow flag was lost?


Yes, unfortunately, some one thought it was the US flag and was burned with the rest - as ordered by the WH.

Only two choices here: 1. The Biden administration is incompetent, was unwilling to accept advice, and did not care what happened.

2. The Biden administration or those handling him, wanted the chaos and humiliation of the Taliban takeover.

I suppose there is a third option: Some combination of the above.

My tendancy, given the reality of multiple copies of Hunter Biden laptops in the hands of our enemies; Those pulling President Biden's strings wanted this takedown.

Next up, very likely, Chinese takeover of Taiwan.

Does anyone think President Biden will stand up to the Chinese?
