Like A Comedy Sketch: This Footage Shows Just How Bad The Afghan Army Really Was At Their Job!
And this was taken during Obama’s tenure, obviously no improvement was seen.

And we wonder why they ran after we left the Country. This is a prehistoric mess of a Country full of drugged out Neanderthals. We wasted 20 years and 2000 American lives on this mess.

The question I ask is why are they so bad, but their own countrymen and adversaries are not?

Because they are a tribalistic people, they aren't nationalistic. They don't understand "Afghanistan" They understand their tribe or their region. They don't want to fight for a country they don't understand.
The Taliban has gathered all the best fighters who see Islam dominating the world. They don't care about Afghanistan either, they want to spread Islam around the globe. Afghanistan is just their launching point.

To let prophesy be fulfilled and accept that it gets real bad before Christ comes.

I mean not really. ISIS was supposed to be the Caliphate that was going to bring about the end of days. But it just brought about their end of days.
The Taliban aren't that great of fighters, especially off their home turf. They're just better than the scrubs that got conscripted into the Afghan Army. I don't think it requires the second coming to put them in their place.

Rage, intensity, and passion....the taliban have the market cornered. The males who are lacking that are just soft.

Iran, Paki, Russia and China can now do whatever they want there.
That’s the fulfillment I am talking about. Not the Afghan army or the tali.

Not really i mean they'll have their hands in things. But Russia already tried messing around in Afghanistan. China will make a play and be pretty successful, Paki won't really do much, and Iran will mettle in Proxies if it suites them. But they don't really have any interest in the sheep humpers. We weren't what was preventing the second coming. I'm pretty sure even Jesus doesn't give a crap about Afghanistan.

That was a sobering scene.
IF that was at all indicative of overall Afghani military attitude, we should have been out of that place a decade ago, leaving nothing but scorched earth.

Members of the Taliban are pulled from the same inbred pool.
This is a frick up and cant be laid at the feet of the Afghan army. President Potato owns this.

Not exactly. Even if they are swimming in that pool they at least took the ones in the deep end.

Laid at their feet no. But they are absolutely part of the problem and always have been. They are absolutely responsible for how quickly the Taliban took back control.

Yes he does. But that doesn't absolve the AA, it just strengthens the reason why the Potato was such a frick up. It was well known how incapable, unprepared, and shitty the AA was.

That goes without saying they are the root of 1/2 the problems in the ME with Iran being the other 1/2.
Pakistan is just a bitch like Afghanistan. They aren't a power player.
But the Taliban think they are starting their caliphate from Afghanistan.

I have a couple of friends who have run special ops in Afghanistan against the guys.
They basically say they are absolute animals to deal with on their terrain and we simply cannot keep up with them in the mountainous regions where they hide/live. He also says they have zero fear of death and simply never relent.
This attitude an understanding of their own land/terrain is what makes them so formidable in that country.

It is almost always a motivated minority that moves the needle. Most people are lazy and near useless.

Why do you think the Taliban/terrorist leaders actually are?

I have heard the same. The cream of the crop taliban are GOOD; add the home advantage and it’s a dark situation.
They just waited us out.
