Its just a massive shitshow.

If they expected this scenario, why weren't they prepared for this?


Because they have zero accountability and know it doesn't matter what they do. They simply don't care.

Why would they?

I know little to nothing but assume that this would make staging and organizing easier. How would this help to evacuate people? Not being ugly at all .. trying to understand. How far away is it from the Kabul airport?

With this administration, are you sure about that?

I agree giving up Bagram


The US military (and coalitions) is not suppose to be at Bagram Base or the Kabul Airport, they're not even suppose to be in the country.

Yeah frick that. I’m not taking my chances as an American at a Taliban checkpoint.


then you are already dead and may as well jump off a roof.

right now you stand a 60% chance of getting there safely passing through a few check points where they treat you badly, maybe the wife daughter or girlfriend gets raped, but if you wait, by end of the week you have a 80% chance of being beheaded on the spot wherever they find you and the wife daughter or girlfriend gets to be claimed by a goat fricker as a taliban bride

take your chances now or stay and die for certain are your only choices

Could the 455th AEW have kept the Taliban in check until civilians were evacuated if they weren't pulled before hand?

Sounds like a reasonable question.

BREAKING...

There are no measures. You're on your own. Now hunker down in place and be quiet.

We're all in this together :/
That's the catch phrase they drummed on and on last year... it's the communist mantra, but it's bull and always has been.
