    Getting rid of Mao by killing just as Many as him isnt an improvement though

    The War in Afghanistan

    Agreed. The military as an organization is not coming out of this unscathed. Individual members will mostly be fine, this will fall on someone in the too brass, but it will absolutely rub off on the entire organization in the public's view.

    The War in Afghanistan

    I just found it from googling/DDGing stuff right as the bombs happened and setting parameters for 24 hours. Since the news of the bombs was mostly from tweets at that point, all the articles were from several hours earlier warning of an imminent threat.

    The War in Afghanistan

    There were plenty of articles out hours ahead of the bombs that the US was getting warnings of imminent attacks. We knew about it and I believe they knew the warnings were credible. They just didn't effectively stop it from happening. Notice at the end Biden said they expected more to come, too.

    The War in Afghanistan

    Most likely Biden just isn't healthy enough to handle this right now, so they're hiding him in his basement again

    The War in Afghanistan

    He literally points out how these are not easy to find. They can be concealed in truck beds and moved before anyone even has a chance to respond.

    The War in Afghanistan

    I would like them to stay long enough to get out the innocent American citizens that are stuck there, and this should have happened in the first place. If some service members get injured or killed trying to rescue citizens who are most likely going to get killed when we abandon them? Well...

    The War in Afghanistan

    I won't be surprised if there's more to come. We had advanced warning and two bombs so far. This was something organized. Not going to be shocked if we have a third, forth. Etc

    The War in Afghanistan

    I am getting reports, which I can not confirm, that there are Americans dead, as well as British. But since I can't confirm anything, take that with a grain of salt until we have confirmation

    This will depend if they get orders to act, with our weak and inept commander in chief, we shall see.

    The War in Afghanistan

    I created a thread in current affairs since this part of the forum isn't as busy and this is a developing case We can get news out quicker and to more people in that area Of course of mods disagree, go ahead and merge the threads, but I think at least for now this is bigger news than something...

    The War in Afghanistan

    Oh I blame Bush and Obama plenty. Trump was planning to pull out of Afghanistan this year himself if he had won. The Taliban would have still taken over once we left, but I don't know how different his plans were to Biden..but I do know Biden's plan was an absolute botch job, because I'm...
