It is not incompetence. It is deliberate sabotage. The CCP wants to rule the World so the United States has to be destroyed. Once you understand this all of this apparent madness suddenly starts to make sense.

Leave the addled old man alone, he has no idea whats happening.

Leaving all that military hardware for the Taliban just screams Barack Obama (or an Obama toad still infesting the WH), the guy who said the muslim call to prayer was the most beautiful sound in the world.

Because people who want to destroy the US are in charge.

It’s what they do.

“However, no one has ever explained why the Biden Administration left this equipment in Afghanistan as opposed to removing it or destroying it.”

He is supposed to be a smart analyst. The equipment was a ransom payment to keep the Taliban from going on a a kill spree to everyone we left behind. The rats knew how that would look. it amounted to a multi-billion dollar payoff.

Yep! It is amazing to me how many people still think it is incompetence. Joe is not in charge. This is BO’s 3rd term.

Well, leaving and nuking the equipment would be even more pathetic. Then US would have to flat out admit it was abandoning our side, but they (we) needed to claim they (we) thought the Afghans were capable of taking over the job.

Billions of dollars worth of weaponry that could have better served Ukraine and its blackmarket selling......

Don’t worry, I’m sure we will see some of that equipment back in the U.S. in the near future. With the huge arsenal gift to terrorists in Afghanistan, the U.S. has achieved the distinction of the world’s largest supplier of arms to our enemies.
I’m sure the gifts we’re providing to Ukraine will only reinforce more ideologues and U.S. haters….not sarcasm!

Don't forget about the weapons funneled through Libya and the tax free cash gift to Iran!!

Liberal legal scholar Jonathan Turley...

And well known military expert.

Afghanistan was always going to fall to the Taliban or ISIS or some variation there of once the decision was made to leave. It didn't have to be as messy as it was, and certainly didn't need to be as ineptly handled as it was, but it was going to happen regardless.

"That was so yesterday."

And the neocon Zeepers try to tell us that the Ukraine War will be won by Biden. LMFAO.
