POLITICS Biden administration appears to have stockpiled military equipment for Taliban months before collapse

WASHINGTON — For months, the Biden administration was stockpiling military equipment for the Taliban before the collapse of the Afghan government. The report comes from Reuters who shares that well over a month before the Taliban’s march across the country, the Biden administration was sending military equipment to Afghanistan amid a “planned withdrawal.”
The plans of the Biden administration were not very well thought out or executed. But perhaps this was the plan all along. According to Reuters, U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters, “They’ll continue to see a steady drumbeat of that kind of support, going forward.”
The Biden administration had continued to ship new firearms, drones, communication gear, and more to the nation that they had plans to abandon in just a few short weeks. Even as the Taliban takeover continued, the shipments continued. The Taliban has bragged about the equipment they obtained, with videos of helicopters and firearms posted online.
According to one official, reported by Reuters, “the current intelligence assessment was that the Taliban are believed to control more than 2,000 armored vehicles, including U.S. Humvees, and up to 40 aircraft potentially including UH-60 Black Hawks, scout attack helicopters, and ScanEagle military drones.” That’s not just a few pieces of military equipment, that’s essentially a start-up kit for a defense force.
Reuters reports that the Biden administration is very concerned about the large amount of equipment that was left behind. According to reports, the administration has contemplated airstrikes to take out large pieces of equipment, but it has yet to put together a plan. Officials report they are less concerned about the equipment because it is technologically advanced. They state it takes significant maintenance time and training to operate. Perhaps that was before China and Russia both have claimed their interest in Afghanistan. Both nations will be racing to make friends with the Taliban. They refuse to call the Taliban terrorists and have technology similar to that of the United States. It is possible that they provide the training necessary to the Taliban regime.
While the Biden administration will claim that the equipment left behind was not stockpiled for the Taliban, what other explanation is there? As the Taliban raced across the country, taking it down in just over 1 week, the administration did nothing to stop them. They did not create a plan to evacuate Americans, the military, military equipment, or anything else. It’s as if the Biden administration was asleep. The Biden administration states that their biggest focus is on how to get trapped Americans out of the nation. At least 15,000 Americans were trapped and abandoned as the US raced to evacuate the military and some refugees.

I have a bit of a different perspective. The biden regime is led by a demonic force and is arming the Scythians in anticipation of the Scythians and the ‘kings of the East’ joining up to attack Israel, as prophesied in Ezekiel. Hidden from open view is the demonic force impelling the obiden/obamaroid regime. Those that ignore the Bible cannot see what is coming.
So they left billions in sophisticated equipment, and probably tens of thousands of full auto rifles, for a bunch of 7th Century savages who cut off people’s heads, stone people to death for wearing the wrong clothes and rape little girls for entertainment, but if your rifle barrel is 1/2 inch too short, they’ll break down your door, shoot your dogs, kick your pregnant wife in the belly and beat the crap out of you as they drag you to prison - if they don’t just outright murder you on the spot.
There aren’t even words to describe my level of disgust for, and hatred of, these America-hating tyrants.
What happens when the Taliban/Isis/Al Queada successfully targets DC and New York City?
Bet Biden’s brother is involved with this in some way.
Scumbag that he is, I'm sure Hunter is taking full advantage of Joe's dementia to rip him off of his cut. He's lucky if Hunter gives him an extra pudding for selling America out.
You see, this is why it's okay. The Taliban doesn't use rifles to cut off heads, stone people, or rape little girls (or boys for that matter). So really they are kind of useless to them.
#biden-logic
Hard to figure out whether this guy suffers from dementia or hates America so much for not electing him President sooner that he is willing to destroy her.
I don’t understand why people don’t recognize this was TREASON. Biden deliberately empowered our enemy with military gifts and surrendered to them.
That is the only conclusion. Nothing else makes sense. Everything the Left has done in USA since Clinton has been to tear down ALL of America.
Senile Puppet Biden & Democrats Stockpiled Taliban Terrorists With $ Billions of Military Equipment While Pulling Out
Another official said that while there are no definitive numbers yet, the current intelligence assessment was that the Taliban are believed to control more than 2,000 armored vehicles, including U.S. Humvees, and up to 40 aircraft potentially including UH-60 Black Hawks, scout attack helicopters, and ScanEagle military drones.
“Breaking News Exchange.” I’m going to start an internet “ news” service called “World Class News” and another called “ Real Deal News” and another called “Honest News Network” and throw up my silly opinions presented as “news.” More and more, internet “news” is becoming a joke; a farcical waste of time. But don’t let that stop you from posting “news” from my “Real News Network” site. The first post is “ BOOM! Afghanistan Disaster Caused By Biden Following Advice From Michelle Obama’s Talking Penis.”
No other explanation for the chaos. China owns Biden. China wants Taiwan. China wanted us humiliated. All to protect Hunter and the Biden family.
Trump was impeached in the house over a statement by some military person and Ukraine. Yet Biden has caused international crisis and didn’t even warn our allies of the pull out from Bagram.
We were trying to equip the Afghan army to have a chance against the Taliban. We sold them a lot of material that honestly was pretty old. The Blackhawks are UH-60A’s and the Kiowa scouts are OH-58’s. We no longer use either of those rotary wing aircraft in the US fleet.
Or maybe that was the plan all along. Every action taken or not taken resulted in promoting CCP interests and damaging ours.
It also makes the Taliban strong enough to defend mines and transport of valuable minerals to China. Over a trillion dollars worth of rare earths and lithium, just for starters.

The world will witness a Chinese-anointed Afghan Government led by the ‘New Taliban’ — a manufactured and packaged product of China
Kabul has fallen to Taliban all over again. The 20 years of effort in importing democracy from the United States of America has failed, as expected.
None can be blamed for Afghanistan to be in this situation today, except its own incumbent government, political leaders and trained armed forces, who were not sincere in delivering their assigned roles for the nation.
The Afghan military and political leadership have given up without a fight. It highlights the nature of the political and military leadership in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, it is the common people of Afghanistan who will pay a heavy price for their leaders’ unaccountable and timid actions.
The Indian sub-continent is now a disturbed region. The neighborhood of India has turned dangerously unstable all over again. It is natural, that a rogue nation like Pakistan and an expansionist China will try leveraging the current situation to their best advantage, and they are at it openly.
A dangerous axis is developing in the region with Afghanistan becoming the center for all nefarious activity sponsored by Pakistan and China. It is essential for India to safeguard its borders and internal security interests with the highest level of alacrity.
I have foreseen the quick return of Taliban to Kabul after the US forces decided to withdraw a few months back. The US intelligence was predicting a 10-week window for the Taliban to capture Kabul, and I forecast it to be 10 days. However, the Taliban took just six days to enter Kabul without a shot fired by the American-trained, Afghan armed forces
