The helicopter video is from Kandahar. The military's reference was to Kabul. This isn't the dunk you think it is.

I wish I thought that Biden's generals and military advisors were this competent.

Don't trust a word Pentagon says.

So Helicopters are incapable of flight between Kandahar and Kabul?

I'm sure they at least attempted to disable them. We saw the photo of the helicopter with the huge hole cut out of the front. I understand everyone expects complete incompetence from everything we do, but I think that just distracts from the things we actually should be pissed about. It doesn't matter that we didn't leave hundreds of working aircraft in Afghanistan, the entire withdraw is an unforgivable shitshow even without that.

Why not fly them out?

So Taliban can just trade those disabled aircrafts to China or Russia for some of their working aircrafts?

The aircraft should have self destruct capabilities that could be activated remotely if it fell into the wrong hands. It should be a bonus to take the "pilot" operating the aircraft out with it. We should also have had the Presidential Palace and other key facilities rigged to wipe out as many of the enemy as possible as well. Was this really that difficult to project in advance?

Oh — OK. The Taliban flying a fully functional Blackhawk helicopter gifted to them by our wholly corrupted national security apparatus is hunky-dory since it didn’t happen in Kabul.
Are you a fact-checker for snopes.com in your spare time?

We left 350,000 fricking guns behind.

I don’t know shite about humvees or aircraft, but if someone just left that for me to take, I would find a way to make it work. There is nothing stopping Russia or China from helping them

And the point here is that the ignominious ending to the sh*+ show in Afghanistan has been built upon one Pentagon lie stacked upon another.
The Pentagon issuing a press release stating that the military hardware left behind in Kabul has been made inoperable in no way alleviates their criminal misconduct for the entire 20 year occupation.
It indeed is very telling and indicative of the Pentagon’s total lack of credibility on any subject matter whatsoever.

Only if the Afghans had chose to use them.

It was obvious to any honest person from the get-go that the puppet regime in Afghanistan was wholly corrupted and incompetent.
Of course, being honest excludes anyone remotely associated with our wholly corrupted national security apparatus.
