Afghanistan was utterly corrupt. You can't defend a nation that thanks you and shoots you at the same time.
The U.S. knew it but the Presidents told the public whatever would get them reelected.
When Iran gets the bomb more countries than the U.S.are going to worry about some rogue group wiping out their population.

Safer than it was with nutty Trump.
ISIS and Al QAEDA are already setting up again in Afghanistan.
When Iran gets the bomb ever country in the middle east is going to get one.
Biden and his finger ? Irrelevant.
A small group could get a nuke and obliterate a City. Play nuclear ransomware, etc.
Pakistan gives safe haven to the Taliban in the winter.

There was no way America could have carried on there, just think of the trillions spent, and what that money could have done for the American people..sigh And yes it seems the Taliban are better equipped than ever before..

As President Joe Biden went before the American people defending his decision to put U.S. troops out of Afghanistan, he gave the following critique of the Afghan military forces. After over a trillion American dollars spent over 20 years, they are well trained, well equipped with modern equipment, and are over 300,000 capable, able, and strong forces.

And as he was speaking, the Taliban Insurgents were making stunning advances, despite being vastly outnumbered, by the American well trained Afghan military. They were met with little to no resistance, as they walked untouched into provincial capitals one after another.

And as sporadic gunfire echoes could be heard in the background in the Afghan capital of Kabul, the Taliban issued a statement claiming they have no intention of taking the capital of Kabul by force!

Knowing the brutality of the Taliban especially to women, if you believe them, I have a bridge for sale, cheap!

Wonder how much Biden and his Cronies were paid for this disaster!

These terrorist groups are relentless, that is part of their success.

So many are absolutely terrified they flee or comply, and non-compliance out there can mean death.

It’s not about going back through the whole thread because if I really had the time and the inclination to study every word, I’d believe no one is taking what is going on out there seriously. The world knows what’s happened so ask yourself what is going to happen in the next 15 minutes there, how many will die in the next hour?

"The U.N. mission in Afghanistan reported in its Afghanistan Protection of Civilians in Armed Conflict midyear update 2021 that there were 1,659 civilians killed and 3,254 wounded. It said that's a 47% increase compared with the same period last year."
