- Colonels and Generals are incompetent or cowards who are afraid to tell the truth up the chain of command.

Dan Crenshaw is making some excellent points about that on Fox this morning. He said the cost to benefit to keeping Bagram and a small force were a good option when you considered having a base in the a few hundred miles from Pakistan, China, Iran, and also to keep a ‘free terror state’ in the area from forming to foment another 9/11. He pointed out that no American soldier had been killed there in 18 months. Biden ‘screwed the pooch’ big time on his abandonment of Trump’s plan to withdraw in stages in a calm, planned manner. What we saw were people hanging off of C-130’s to try to leave. At least in Vietnam they only hung off of helicopter rails while they lifted off.
Thanks for revised link!
Abandoning Bagram was utter idiocy. I doubt that the dribbling fool himself made the decision, but all the woke generals and commanders under him were certainly implementing the overall policies of the Dems: “no bad terrorist.”” They’re all just misunderstood, and if we do a little social work and teach them to wear makeup and heels to express their inner trans, all will be well.
Sadly, he’s retired. Otherwise we could parachute the valiant, CIB-wearing INFANTRY officer Alexander Vintman into Tabul to save the day,
I guess Woke Milley is to blame
What about his twin brother?
Yeah, baby… him too!
Does General Milley even know this is happening? I think he is solely focused on introducing political correctness into the military to ruin it.
Will China take over Bagram air base, either directly running it or indirectly funding it?
“I guess Woke Milley is to blame”
Milli Vanilli could have done a better job, and they were 100% frauds.
Why does the whole thing have me thinking of this?
“Well we barely made the airport for the last plane out
As we taxied down the runway I could hear the people shout
They said “Don’t come back here Yankee”
But if I ever do
I’ll bring more money”

We all know that Eisenhower had written a prepared statement to be issued in case the invasion failed - which it almost did, particularly at Omaha Beach.
It was a mea culpa, taking full responsibility for the failure and placing all the blame for it on himself.
But... the thing that the biographers have never told us, the thing that we were supposed to either figure out for ourselves, is... it was Eisenhower's suicide note, if the situation called for it.
Fortunately it didn't work out that way. But Ike had planned to do the honorable thing. He wasn't gonna be here to step up to some radio network's microphone and say some hsit. He was gonna leave a note saying what he needed to say, but he wasn't gonna be there.
He was a flawed man just like any of the rest of us, and the history being written about his generalship in WWII isn't always kind in hindsight.
But on that day he was prepared to take all the blame upon himself, with finality.
Just sayin'.
Fraud Crenshaw is a Huge Never Trumper .
He thinks the election was fair and trashed those who called him out . A devious DC SNAKE .
But he loves the TV cameras .
Vindman, as an officer, is eligible for recall for a long time.
Your idea is brilliant.
Prolly not. We abandon it, the Taliban takes over and creates a humanitarian crisis, we have to go back, etc.
It's a huge profit motive for the military industrial complex. And they pay good money to politicians. And we all know, by now, our politicians are good whores who would sell their kids for a dollar, and they love their kids.
He and his assistants like Rice and valjar and worse are running our country into the ground on purpose,
Our enemies are laughing.
Southern border is treason pure and simple,
Call your worthless state and federal congress critters. Write letters to the editor. Do not give up.
Going into Afghanistan and engaging in a more or less conventional war in the first place was utter idiocy. It is obvious to everyone now.
