Bureaucratic to the end !
Where are the 5,000 troops?
On the way but not there yet and now they are sending 6,000. This is going to be plustercluck.
Wouldn’t put it past them. I know during Katrina that the national guard was diverted to Atlanta for some sexual harassment training before going to New Orleans. They are that stupid, to the point it’s wicked.
Where are the 5000 troops Biden’s sending?
Still separating them according to preferred pronouns?”
They had to separate out all the straight white males. Had to make sure there was the proper diverse mix of POC, trannies and pregnant women.

Lloyd Austin found out they were all Trump supporters
An eyewitness described the scene at Kabul airport to the BBC:
The departure hall turned into chaos after people said boarding passes were being printed secretly for officials and high-profile people who showed up at the airport.
I saw three former MPs, a few deputy ministers and some celebrities queuing up. Some didn’t even have a booking. We waited for almost eight hours, until airport staff started leaving their desks - first the check-in counters and then the migration and passport desks… different rumours created chaos. Some escaped from the airport and some rushed towards the gates.
No-one was in any of the passport check cabins and the QR scan doors were destroyed. There wasn’t a security check before getting to the gates.
We walked through and saw that the big glass doors between the gates and the airplanes were shattered. People ran towards the last plane (it seems the first plane, which was ours, was filled by officials and took off) and there was a second flight which people started to board.
It was almost a stampede.
We walked back and saw many hopeful passengers just sitting under the airplane near the runway. People were shocked and didn’t know what to do, running from one plane to the other.

We then walked towards the exit to get in the car. Armed men in plain clothes were guarding the airport.
People were very desperate, some were running towards the airport, some were escaping. In order to stop people from getting into the airport, the guards opened fire into the air.
When I was getting out, there was a guy shooting in the air. A few minutes away on the airport’s road, I saw several police vehicles left alone on the road with doors open.
I can still hear sporadic gunshots and helicopters.

‘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.

You said you’d never forget.
Apparently you lied. :)
His Vietnam or his Iran ? BTW how is he doing ?
“Boy, all of us, including me, who supported these wars on FR throughout the 2000s and defended Bush/Cheney, are eating bovine feces right now.”
I think most of us, you likely included, realized pretty quickly that nation-building was HOPELESS. But the Neocons couldn’t let go...so here we are.
Personally, I do like sending the boys in to beat the crap out of these types...but we have to also get them out quickly...something that didn’t happen.
We can protect our interests in Afghanistan, including the possibility of a terrorist threat re-emerging, without a large troop presence. That is what Joe Biden will do as president.

“Where are the 5000 troops Biden’s sending? Lloyd Austin found out they were all Trump supporters”
Or that the 5000 troops where too pale, stale, and male, and he (Lloyd Austin) sent orders down to find another 5000 troops - troops that looked ‘more like America’. And, by then, the situation was over on the ground there.
Not from Babylon Bee.

“Two Marines, standing by the runway at the Kabul airport, acknowledged that they were living a moment of history. A little earlier, they said, someone walked by after exiting one of the helicopters cradling a poorly folded American flag: It had just come down off the embassy” https://t.co/Npq7jW5Nrk
I'm surprised that they didn't forsake the Stars and Stripes in favor of their beloved Degenerate Rainbow flag.
Bust a deal, face the wheel.... Raggedy man.
RE: Like a Bob Dylan song....
Yet another song lyric that fits this situation....
It’s Alright, Ma, I’m Only bleeding
Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn
Suicide remarks are torn
From the fool’s gold mouthpiece
The hollow horn plays wasted words
Proves to warn that he not busy being born
Is busy dying
Temptation’s page flies out the door
You follow, find yourself at war
Watch waterfalls of pity roar
You feel to moan but unlike before
You discover that you’d just be
One more person crying
So don’t fear if you hear
A foreign sound to your ear
It’s alright, Ma, I’m only sighing
As some warn victory, some downfall
Private reasons great or small
Can be seen in the eyes of those that call
To make all that should be killed to crawl
