right. I’m trying to find something. Ancedotally, This DM article does mention that the US hs been ‘ordered’ not to leave the airfield, while the Brits have been pulling over a thousand a day thru the gates and onto planes, whereas the US had to halt flights for 8 or so hours because of Qatar logistics (and many flights leave with less than optimal passenger numbers)

I told some friends in Israel I’m so ashamed of what the US did to those people in Afghanistan. These friends lived in the States for 2-3 years.

They understood.

That was the first thing I checked for after reading the title. After reading the first sentence I had to check again.

If this is true, Donahue should be in Leavenworth until the end of World War VII.

“A 2-star’s “counterpart” is not a “leftenant” colonel”

Beg to differ. When neither reports to the other they are very much “counterparts”. In this situation that “leftenant” colonel has just proved himself to be better than that political general..... and getting even for Patton embarassing Monte in 1943/44!

How many billions are we wasting on this woke military of ours?
Remember the magic negro got rid of countless military leaders and placed his ass kissers in positions of power there.
