No matter how much you want to believe, withdrawal was going to go real bad.

This isn’t a defense of Biden

it’s a defense of getting the hell out of that country.

This fricking general talking is trying to soften the blow with a prepared statement provided by the WH

“We need to make clear that not every American wants to leave.” Bull-fricking-shite. They’re blaming it on them.

this is going to be the defense, "we gave them notice, why were they still there?"
this is absolutely going to go down as a victim blaming exercise

This Pentagon briefing is stupid.
I definitely wasn't there when I thought about our military minds being weak but now? holy shite do we even have a tough commander?

So we're relying on the Taliban to provide perimeter security around our troops to keep ISIS out?
Yeah, that should work just fine.

As I've been saying for a while on here, you really have to separate the macro and micro issues.
On the macro level, it was always going to be a shite show and the Taliban were going to take over.
On the micro level, it didn't have to be this much of a shite show getting people out of Afghanistan

Gen McKenzie (Commander of US CENTCOM) just said there is no other way to check people for bombs without pat downs at the gate.
He also said that the Taliban is supposed to check folks before they get to the gate, as well. "Sometimes they are good checks, sometimes they aren't."

Did he just say (paraphrase):
"We don't know exactly what happened but this is what we think happened?" in reference to bomb at the gate?

What's fricking pathetic is that a general of the united states military is telling us that the fricking Taliban (terrorists) are our security for the airport!!! Unbelievable!
