“Blinken: This is manifestly not Saigon”
He is right - this is FAR WORSE.
The NVA was a disciplined regular army with thousands of tanks (I read General Giap's book, darn it). Many ARVN units fought bravely to the end. But the ANA folded like a cheap suit against a guerrilla force it drastically outgunned and outnumbered. And worse, our own military, intelligence, and diplomatic bureaucracy didn't realize how bad things were.
Much worse!

Blinken and OBiden will find out when the goat ‘effers slowly slice the heads off some embassy Americans and hold the rest for ransom.
He is right. It’s 1975 and 1979 all rolled into one.
Yes
This Admin and military have cut and run,.
Sending the military best to what, be ambushed and massacred. Complete with thousands of locals not “approved” to leave, and the rape of women, children, and …
This is cowardice at the very top.
I remove my consent and abjure this government.
