You are not paying attention.
The number one terrorist enemy of the current administration is you and me, not the Taliban.
Sorry to deliver the bad news....

Biden assured us the Afghan forces would stave off a collapse.....
....yet......
In the wake of President Biden’s withdrawal decision, the U.S. pulled its air support, intelligence and contractors servicing Afghanistan’s planes and helicopters.
That meant the Afghan military simply couldn’t operate.

Yes, it would help China, Russia and Pakistan - but it still doesn't make sense that Biden or his stupid thugs at the Pentagon would do this intentionally.
On a lighter note our 'brass' seems as stupid as they come:

‘Woke’ Gen. Mark Milley, in July: ‘Afghan Security Forces Have the Capacity to … Defend Their Country’
Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley told reporters less than four weeks before the Taliban entered Kabul that the local military was fully capable of defending Afghanistan from the insurgent Islamic terrorist militia.
