Trump would be ordering to prepare MOAB drops on the strongholds. If Sleepy even recognizes Moab, he would think about the city in Utah.Quote:

I had a Dawg80 moment today. I thought to myself….why not wire the Afghan Presidential Palace with C4 before abandoning it, that way once the Taliban gets there, you can blow them up on live TV.
Excellent!Quote:

Go back and watch the tarmac videos. No women and no children trying to get on those planes. Do you think those men trying to get on the planes might have been recruits for the Taliban trying to get to the US?
Oh oh! Biden ignored his advisors....hmmm, didn't someone on here accuse Trump of that?
Intelligence Warned of Afghan Military Collapse, Despite Biden’s Assurances (msn.com)
Chairman of Joint Chiefs stated that the Afghan military could/would hold out for months against the Taliban.. Guess he was too busy trying to push Critical Race Theory and wanting to understand about white rage.. rather than get accurate information regarding the situation in Afghan. We left hundreds of humvees, dozens of helicopters and drones,Quote:

That's faster than we blew through Iraq with all of our technical advantages and superior equipment.
Yeah, we should be out of Afghanistan (Syria too....same friggin thing). Delaying the inevitable should not be our military strategy, especially when we are bring home dead and wounded soldiers for the effort. I know too many folks for whom that war will never be over....it's only limited war if you aren't there.
Go all the way, or don't go at all. Fighting defensive wars designed to keep one particular faction from being overthrown or killed is an open-end commitment that will eventually end just like Beirut, Vietnam and now Afghanistan.
When you pull out of Afghanistan, particularly under the terms of Trump’s deal, you can’t control what happens. In fact, Trump’s agreement does not let us interfere in their internal politics.
Why is any deal of Trump's suddenly so important? None of his other policies survived executive orders from the adult who is supposed to be the foreign policy expert. They are clowns.Quote:
