Afghanistan Epic Fail Consequences
The unplanned and poorly executed retreat from Afghanistan has placed the world's best military equipment into the hands of a reconstituted Al-Qaeda with greater #'s than when the US first entered.
We now have more Al-Qaeda in Afghanistan than when we first arrived, and they have the very best US weaponry.
The Taliban has acquired (because we left it behind) large numbers of Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) United States military light tactical vehicles that are designed specifically to withstand improvised explosive device attacks and ambushes.
These are “top-secret” technology vehicles that have the very best armor and weapon systems available and they are being taken to Pakistan where they will most likely end up in China and Russian where our technology will be reversed engineered.
This is in addition to our top-level night-vision goggles in massive quantities (prior to this acquisition, American forces in Afghanistan “owned the night” and that was a significant tactical advantage. That advantage has now evaporated and just like the MRAP tactical vehicles, the top-of-the-line night vision systems will also be routed through Pakistan and sold to the highest bidders in China and Russia for reverse engineering and for analysis of weaknesses that can be exploited by America’s most committed adversaries.
The losses and damage to America’s fighting forces are incalculable. The military leaders in addition to the POTUS should be held fully accountable for these actions which are treasonous.
This is showing the world that not only are we withdrawing from Afghanistan, we are showing our allies that we are weak and untrustworthy on the world stage. This will affect relationships with Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, and the Philippines not to mention all of the U.S. European allies.
Also, the “installed Leader” (President Ashraf Ghani) of Afghanistan (a horrible choice by the way) left the country before things began to turn bad and he took with him $169,000,000 in cash (this would fill a C130). Somebody needs to ask “who flew this guy out and where is the cash?” Biden is one of the nastiest, vile, racist people in American political history and extremely vengeful.
When Joe Biden was a Senator, he blocked the “aid” requested by President Ford during the fall of Saigon and said “F**k those guys, we don’t owe them anything.” This is the same Joe Biden that is at the head of this colossal debacle in Afghanistan and this is now the absolute worst foreign policy disaster in the history of the United States of America with repercussions that will be not be reversible.
The Taliban are in charge. They are doing a charm offensive in the larger metropolitan areas. In the smaller areas, they are using biometric data (retinal scans, fingerprints, etc.) that they obtained - some Afghanistan workers only speak English and are “high value targets” for killing by the Taliban. They are
keeping themselves in line (a bit) prior to the full exit, but likely will transition to more evil methods very soon.
September 11th has meaning in the Middle East. There are thousands of years of history that is in play now - what Osama Bin Ladin wrote about - and energized many who oppose America. There is only so much that can be done with the limited resources. The people holding this back from being a successful mission are the joint chiefs and the Biden administration - they are fearful of a strong exit.
The termination of tactical air support allowed the Taliban to take all aircraft assets without a shot being fired. The assets were abandoned and left for the taking. This has transformed the entire political landscape. We stopped being Democrats and Republicans when this debacle unraveled.
Our “country” is viewed as an “extremist” now. Our allies don’t trust us and our enemies don’t fear us. No society survives like that!
