    How?

    James Clapper, former CIA Director under Obama, denied on CNN today that it was a failure of intelligence.
    If intelligence was saying the Afghan forces will fold like a cheap card table in a matter of minutes, let's hear about it.

    500 out of 4,000 Embassy Staff were flown out of Afghanistan today . . .

    Chaos at Kabul Airport . . . Americans encouraged to shelter in place.

    When you announce four months ahead of time exactly when you're leaving you give the enemy four months to plan and prepare.
    There was a date certain when Daddy left office too.

    Really? You had an intelligence source saying the Taliban will overrun the country in a matter of hours?

    I already signaled my agreement with you about Joe's comments.

    I was on the old Woodshed when some of the cast of characters here would shriek about some detainee or another who had returned to the battlefield after release. Yet, I haven't once seen ANYONE here remark on the fact that Daddy's deal released 5,000 Taliban fighters from custody. I agree with you that Joe looks bad on this. But I don't think it's me who's failing to call a spade a spade.

    Anyway, you and I agree this mess isn't making anyone involved look good.
    They weren't released until the Taliban took over the country you moron

    Under election-year pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump for a deal allowing him to bring home American troops, the country’s grand assembly, or Loya Jirga, on Sunday approved the release.

    The Taliban militant had demanded the release of the 400, the last batch among 5,000 prisoners to be freed, as a condition to join peace talks.
