Pretty surly mother fuckers, Jesus.
From the US perspective you cant win without going into the sticks and mountain valleys in some of the remotest backwater places on earth, and basically doing ethnic cleansing because the Taliban basically looks no different from your ordinary Joe Mohammed.
Only other alternative "win" is to keep some troops there, and over time win the ideological battle with the Islamists (no idea if even possible).
I saw a stat that in the big cities and country as a whole, only 20% of people support the Taliban.
Yet they get their ass kicked by 75k dudes with Chinese knock off aks and the Quran.
What a fucking nightmare. If we are going to piss away trillions of dollars there to attempt to pull of a Japan or Germany 2.0 we might as well station a few thousands troops like weve been doing to make sure the Taliban doesnt take the place over in a week.

This is a tragedy and Joe is as wrong as Daddy was.
Joe had a plan! Biden voters, the few, the proud!
This is a fucking disaster. But at least you're happy about it, so there's that.
But Joe is as wrong as Daddy on this.
Hope this helps
But Trump!
Cute of you to bring “Daddy” into the fray and try to shift the blame to him.
Biden is the POTUS and the planning and execution of this clusterfuck is on him.
Trump is no longer the President.
The buck stops with Biden.
This should have been predictable. What are our intelligence agencies and military doing?
They should have had the foresight to anticipate this.
No, I am not happy about this.
Joe would have lots of contractual justifications for saying the deal is dead. Of course, he doesn't want to use them.
Meanwhile, it was in our national interest not to have the Taliban harboring terrorists in Afghanistan. The passage of time hasn't changed that.
Thats your boy. Live with it
Nothing to do with Trump
AND all the military equipment and supplies we left behind.
The Taliban racing through the countryside in Humvees . . . Unforeseeable.
You must be so happy that the country is being humiliated on Joe's watch.
Own it Kunt, this is on Biden and the people who voted for him.
