What consequences has anyone from DOD or the US intelligence agencies every faced for their mistakes? They have managed to get tens of thousands of GI’s and American citizens killed through their screw ups and nothing, no firings, no disciplinary actions, nothing. When you work for a company that will allow you to make mind blowing disasters without penalty you tend not to put forth your best efforts.
Vietnam, 911, Without Reagan’s guidance they would have been content to fight the Cold War another 100 yrs, Iraq WMD’s, 20 years in Afghanistan with not a clue in hell of how to win, then the disastrous withdrawal. Of course this prancing prince wants no one to look for a pound of flesh it might expose some nasty-nasty things him and his cohorts have done over the years.

When reelected, President Trump can reduce Milley in rank from General (4 star) to Major General (2 star), even in retirement.

To: ChicagoConservative27
Sure. What I liked best about the affair was that the DC political establishment and the media refrained from blaming Trump for somebody else's screwup - oh, wait, that didn't happen, did it?
What happened wasn't the culmination of any long program or distant decision, it was the deliberate abrogation of a signed treaty in order to deny Trump credit for negotiating an end to the thing. It was political grandstanding, not sober policy. Zero combat deaths in 20 months became 13 in a single day and absolutely nobody took responsibility, nor for the mountain of equipment left behind when the plans for evacuation that were made were thrown into the trash by political "experts".
This isn't anybody's "pound of flesh", it's called "accountability". There wasn't any and continues not to be any.
