USA – -(AmmoLand.com)- No one has done more to strengthen the ability of the Taliban in their mission to perpetrate evil on the World than Joe Biden. While desperately trying to destroy the 2nd Amendment, Democrats are simultaneously handing over $83 billion worth of training and equipment to the enemy in a botched retreat from Afghanistan.
Aside from the fact that the Biden Administration pulled our military out while leaving unarmed and defenseless American Citizens behind, the enormous list of weapons and true military hardware that was gift-wrapped and handed to the Taliban is of great concern. The list of military equipment left behind in Afghanistan as a result of this haphazard military evacuation is extensive and includes the following:
American Aircraft, Equipment & Armored Vehicles
2,000 Armored Vehicles Including Humvees and MRAPs
75,989 Total Vehicles: FMTV, M35, Ford Rangers, Ford F350, Ford Vans, Toyota Pickups, Armored Security Vehicles etc.

50 MD530G Scout Attack Helicopters

This is the information you are not supposed to have. According to Forbes, the Biden Administration is not helping transparency by “hiding key audits on Afghan military equipment.”
A GAO spokesman said “The State Department requested we temporarily remove and review reports on Afghanistan to protect recipients of US assistance that may be identified through our reports and thus subject to retribution.” However, the reports included no recipient information.
Never in American history have we seen such military failure.
The idea that American Citizens, left behind in Afghanistan, would be left defenseless as Taliban fighters go door to door seeking them out while using the weapons this Administration left behind, leads any logical thinking person to believe that there were ulterior motives. This is a mistake that a group of third-graders playing backyard tag wouldn’t be so foolish to make. The top priority is to get your teammates to safety, but apparently, the Biden Administration had a different plan.
While Joe and his Cover-Up Queen, Jen Psaki, praise their Administration’s actions and try to convince American Citizens that leaders around the World support this decision, former Commander of British Troops in Afghanistan, Colonel Richard Kemp, spoke out specifically on the effects this decision will have on NATO.
“President Biden has just completely destroyed it’s (NATO’s) credibility. Totally destroyed it, single-handedly. What we face now is a terrorist threat coming out of Afghanistan that is greater than the terrorist threat before 911.”
He added, “People have been talking about impeaching President Biden. I don’t believe President Biden should be impeached. He’s the commander-in-chief of the U.S. Armed Forces, who’s just essentially surrendered to the Taliban. He shouldn’t be impeached. He should be court-martialed for betraying the United States of America and the United States Armed Forces.”
President Trump implied that Joe Biden’s decision lacked intelligence and common sense. “Leaving our Military till the end was such a simple decision that anyone with intelligence and common sense would have made.”
If the Democrat’s goal was really to keep weapons out of the hands of dangerous people, wouldn’t Taliban fighters be at the top of that list?
New data reveals just how much danger the Biden Administration has put American Citizens in. In an effort to save face, Pentagon Press Secretary, John Kirby, said some equipment was destroyed. However, new photos of Taliban fighters using American weaponry is surfacing every day. It is unclear exactly how many weapons have fallen into the hands of the Taliban, but according to the Hill, even the Biden Administration has acknowledged it’s a “fair amount.”
So while Democrats are trying desperately to disarm American Citizens, they are simultaneously arming foreign terrorists to the teeth and beyond. Is this sheer incompetence or something else?
It will take articulate strategy and extreme force to repair the damage Joe Biden and his Administration have done. The effects the World will endure as a result of this colossal failure will be felt decades, possibly centuries into the future.
The Afghanistan debacle also reveals the left-wing gun hypocrisy here at home. Isn’t it interesting how we don’t see Shannon Watts and her angry mob of gun-grabbing misfits pleading to get “actual” weapons of war out of the hands of real Terrorists? This, even at a time when those weapons are pointed directly at defenseless, fellow Americans immediately after their “President” has abandoned them. Instead, Everytown is ramping up articles painting lawful, American gun-owners as Terrorists. The shameful behavior of these anti-American groups never seems to reach its pinnacle and the incompetence of this Administration is likely to result in the loss of American lives.
The 2nd Amendment is not a privilege. It’s your right.

I think all of you need to read “The Art of War” by the ancient, famous general Sun Biden:
“When in full retreat ensure you have left behind $83 billion worth of sophisticated weaponry for your enemy.”
Obama “My buddies would like equipment like that.” Biden “I will also pay the freight.”
I'm sure the Blackhawks will wind up in China where they'll look at all of the advanced avionics (stuff like automated flight control, integrated self defense, navigation systems, computerized engine monitoring systems, etc.). It'll be a goldmine.
Remember this next time you attempt to purchase a firearm. (or ammo)
You really think China doesn't already have that from the U.S. and the UK and France and Russia?
It’s not too late to nuke much of this stuff from Orbit....
Sure they do but the more the better. Actual hardware. A goldmine for them.
This had to be done on purpose. My question is why Democrats want so badly to commit suicide and take the rest of America with them?
SICK. SICK. SICK. Dear President and Patriot George Washington, May I have your thoughts?
Because they were not in our possession. The assets were given to the Afghan National Army over the years to equip them. The Taliban captured them from the Afghans.
These "we left stuff behind" posts are getting old. It doesn't take much work to figure out what happened.
So, we didn’t leave Bagram airbase behind either? Okay yeah right uh huh sure. Blackhawks are so difficult to locate. Yup.
Either way. We should have had a contingency plan. They got lazy.
It wasn’t botched. It was planned and unfolded exactly the way the Deep State wanted it to.
I don’t really watch TV news so a lot slips past me.
Does anyone know of an explanation or excuse by the Biden side?
Why were the mountains of weapons left?
Instead of:
Why not carefully plan over a certain period to 1) evacuate Americans and those who assist them and then
2) account for weapons, equipment, vehicles and ammo, especially high tech and pull them out as you phase the military personnel out.
3) Add to security and support as you get the last American military service people out of Afghanistan.
4) If the US Embassy is still to be open then fortify it and have troops to defend it.
Gun show loophole? 😕🔥🐂💩

“He’s bumbling and kinda dumb but oh, man, did he do a whale of a job in taking over the country for us and kicking out Uncle Sam on his good old infidel keister. Gotta love him.”
SuperTucanos are pretty cool. They look like an evolution of the Stuka without the gull wings.
I wonder what they’ll keep and what they’ll sell? None of that stuff can be cheap to maintain and fly.
I don’t know how the Afghans distributed their Blackhawks. I do know they were in Mazar-i-Sharif and Kandahar which fell long before Bagram and Kabul. We took anything deemed “heavy” out of Bagram.
