He announced that they are leaving in 18 months, the 30k troops wont be there for another 5 months, so the Taliban just goes somewhere and kills and murders and butchers and it’s theirs in a year or so, you must be freakin’ over the the rainbow to believe the taliban is going to waste any time fighting an enemy that accounced they are leaving soon, the jig is up, we lost, by design.

That I agree, is the fatal flaw.

The Taliban are butchers but not stupid butchers. They will see this 18 months as downtime to sharpen the blades.

What military leader tells the enemy his exit strategy unless it is ‘out now’, we need to cut and run?
