During an interview with Fox News National Security Correspondent Jennifer Griffin aired on Saturday’s “Fox Report,” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley said that the speed of the collapse of Afghanistan’s military and government was a surprise, and “what you saw unfold with this noncombatant evacuation operation was one of the contingency plans.” And “There was an extensive amount of planning in this.”
Milley said, [relevant remarks begin around 2:20] “I think a couple of things. One, is the collapse of the Afghan Army happened at a much faster rate and very unexpected, by pretty much everybody, and then with that is the collapse of the Afghan government. So, that was definitely a surprise. But I will say that there was an awful lot of planning done, ROC drills, rehearsals, etc. And what you saw unfold with this noncombatant evacuation operation was one of the contingency plans. And the speed at which it was executed, the flow of the aircraft, we had planes taking off every 30 to 45 minutes or so. We had — we brought in 7,000 — or 6,000 U.S. troops, and then there [were] about a thousand or more or so Afghan troops that secured HKIA. The first day, it was clearly chaotic, no question about it. You saw that on video, etc. But within about 24 hours, that settled down and it became a much more orderly process.

“I meant to do that”
Didn’t work for PeeWee Herman either, chump
The plan?
The Taliban says BOO! and the regime’s woke princess chairman cries wee, wee, wee all the way home.
Giving the Taliban 90 billion in arms is a great plan. An aircraft carrier costs 13 billion, they can afford 6 now. Yeah Milley LIE some more.
S—P—IIIIIIII-N !
Seeing how well the Taliban made out on all this, this was well planned by John Brennan and his ilk. Just f’in disgusting.
That jackass was to busy planning his Woke initiatives
From Generals to Genitals — America’s Woke Military
Why did we need 4,000 people assigned to the embassy? Should have been reduced to a skeleton crew...20 or 30 people. Dumbass move to abandon Bagram - caused Afghan army to panic and took away our secure base for evacuation. Why couldn’t sensitive equipment not issued to Afghan army be evacuated? Didn’t anyone use backward planning to determine when all this needed to begin in order to meet the deadline? I forgot.....most of the DoD effort was focused on identifying white supremacists in the ranks and conducting CRT classes.
CLUSTERFUCK! GENERAL! CLUSTERFUCK!
Fox News on Saturday afternoon is CNN Lite.
Hardly anyone listens to the Saturday afternoon programming on Fox and now Fox can claim they have fully covered the debacle.
My plan would be to cashier The Modern Milley and all of his ilk.
Well I know precious little about military evacuations but I have to say I could have managed that better than all I was watching. .....it would start with not handing over the country without fighting when they first began doing so... and we all saw it happening as it went.
Further with a US airbase perfectly suited I would have conducted any evacuation from there.
Neither of these would require “Professional” decisions.....it’s clear as a bell to anyone.
so the plan SUCKED... is that what you’re telling us???
Leaving Bagram Air Base and leaving all the equipment behind for the Taliban/China/Russia/Iran was the plan?
How stupid is he? Never mind!
Milley math:
Taking orders from taliban on suicide bomber + 13 dead + 120k unvetted afghanis + leaving 26 school kids behind + afghanis falling from a c130 + arming the enemy + unserialized pdf visas + ubers from ft Lee = SUCCESS
The guy lives in his own never never land.
Fox played this?... they let him tell this?
Griffin musta enjoyed it!!!
As long as we understand that Plugs the Pedo and this little meatpuppet Milley aren’t running the show, it’s pretty obvious this is all being done to maximize damage to the U.S.
This would never happen under the legitimate President Trump.

Electric bleachers would be more efficient.⚡⚡⚡⚡
In any of those plans did you evacuate civilians before evacuating the military? Did you personally reject those plans?
Are you able to tie your own shoelaces, or is the process too complex for you?
It’s very difficult, to say the least, watching US news anymore.....Afghanistan is frankly a done deal in the eyes of this admin....Covid will be Medias headlines throughout Biden’s term for sure.....the rest is about cover related issues. Meanwhile the Biden agenda goes along under cover with out any media informing us.
