We didn’t even get to the end of the month
usa is not a reliable partner
Lol
@div patel it doesn’t help when most Afghan troops do nothing but get high on opium instead of training.
This is what you get when you choose to sleep with wolves, especially sick old wolves.
Send your children and grandchildren over their to fight. DonTheCon family will not
So this same expert was predicting the Taliban would take over in 90 days, while it happened in less than 90 hours – do we just throw the title “expert” around while he’s been so incorrect? Why should we trust the opinions of these so called experts?
If you are smarter than him, become one
It would have been 90 days if there was any actual fighting, the Afghan government just handed over each city
LOL! Experts Indeed!
He’s an expert not Nostradamus
These experts were American ‘former’ spies.
Let me tell you what you have produced. Absolutely squat!
And so this is how it looks when you say clutching at straws
It is 1975, Phnom Penh, and the Khmer Rouge all over again.
You’re not wrong.
It’s Saigon bit a hell of a lot more faster.
exactly
Taliban have become SO STRONG over recent years !
We couldn’t stay there forever.. they waited patiently and honestly it looks way more peaceful than I was expecting.. America has its on issues to worry about
Peaceful ehh??
Who giving the weapons armed them. So sad 20years come back.
1975 all over again
Unless the west keeps an army there then this was going to happen. Just look at the afghanistan army, when it was their time they ran away
Just like Iraq with ISIL.
Well equipped force & they stripped off their uniforms, abandoned their arms and ran for the hills.
If they’re not willing to protect their country, let them deal with the consequences.
CLEAN VICTORY!!!
Biden: Why our embassy staffs have still not evacuated from Kabul yet?
CIA: Maybe they are watching the movie ‘Enemy at the gate’!
😂😂😂😂😂
I knew it would happen very rapidly, just like it has happened. Obvious to me 10 years ago when I saw vids of Afghan Army training.
Paper army. I can take office workers and train them, would have more willpower to fight.
Once again, war and neo-colonialism fail in a catastrophic manner.
Better to Love ! Unfortunately we need psychological alternatives to frustrated children…..Love with Action like Dancing, Massaging, Hygiene with Soap n Water…For Purpose and Pleasure if not….it is just Bla Bla Bla !
What is next, everyone is fleeing in horror, because the Giant of Kandahar is on the loose.
Dropping their weapons and giving up. Cowards.20,000 on route here
why didn’t they destroy the taliban for 20 years with such great drones?
The uncivilized want to remain uncivilized. The Afghan army was full of taliban what do you expect. Everybody wins except for the women they aren’t on board
The west is extremely civilised. Look at your history for the last 150 years. 2 world wars (european tribal conflicts), invasion of vn, iraq and afghanistan which resulted in the death of millions.
