They’re cheering. Imagine the opportunity this presents for them in terms of distributing wealth to their friends and colleagues. Get ready for full scale war in Afghanistan again.

Taliban has entered the Green Zone, entering offices and registering who is living/working there I am told. I am also told that the militants have taken some of the cars, as well as keys to armoured vehicles.

The amount of agreement with that ridiculous tweet is even more horrifying than the idea behind the tweet itself.

Lost in this is another international relations disaster:

We shut down Bagram, so we now have to rely on the Kabul airport. We have essentially taken over the airport and have prioritized our flights (I guess we kind of have to), but looks incredibly bad internationally. Our decisions effectively leave Afghan nationals attempting to escape the country stranded.

The pic Bobby posted just a bit ago shows some of those stranded people.

This in an international relations disaster on so many levels.

Downvote me away but at this point, America honestly deserves a 9/11 style attack by those savages since so much of social media agrees with that tweet.

Afghanis are absolute cowards. So many Americans died trying to help that shithole and they give it up with barely a fight. Let the Taliban have it now, isn’t that how the history of the world works? The strong conquers the weak? The Middle East is such a shithole.

That’s called the business of war. There are hundreds of thousands of people with money on the line when we fight.

Biden pulls out, make sure everything looks good. Then it goes back to crap you send the guys back in there

It will be much, much more complicated if/when "you send guys back in there". china is already planning and orchestrating their entry into the region. They will not be there to nation build, they will be there to invest and essentially nationalize whatever they want.

You probably should take a break from the Internet. Go outside and get some fresh air

I wonder what the new warlord status weapon will be. It was the Krink when the soviets left.
