No, The Taliban Did Not Seize $83 Billion Of U.S. Weapons

[themirrorthief]

Sophisticated weapons will not last long in the hands of the Taliban
Aircraft require extensive maintenance by trained mechanics and a steady supply of spares
Aircraft, vehicles, weapons systems, communications equipment will all be useless within months

iran will enjoy all that stuff thanks biden you old braindead hunk of manure

I had a feeling all that right wing fake outrage about the weapons left in Afghanistan was mostly a bunch of garbage.

Fact check puts the truth to the situation.

No, the Taliban did not seize $83 billion of U.S. weapons

The price tag is irrelevant. If it was only $1.50 worth of equipment left behind it would still be inexcusable.

It's not about the money, it's about the equipment and weapons just left behind for a known terror group to just pick up and use against innocents.

thats OK biden plans on sending them cash to make up the difference,,

what do they call it when you fund a terrorist organization??

 

[rightwinger]

And Quid Pro should have thought about it before he left them behind. Oh well.

The US left no military equipment behind
We decommisioned it

US troops disabled 73 aircraft, weapons systems before leaving Kabul, then the Taliban came

Before leaving Afghanistan, the US military disabled 73 military aircraft, weapons systems, choppers and armoured vehicles at the Kabul airport hangar.

Expect the Moon Bats to try and discredit anything said about Potatohead. They are dishonest like that.

They're completely missing the point of this entire exercise I think. Fiddling and fumbling over the minutiae will do them no good whatsoever. A large scale impression was created on an international basis for whatever reason.... Justified or unjustified it makes no difference.
This will be an enormous factor in the next election season whether they like it or not.

Wasn’t Biden’s equipment

It was Afghan equipment provided by previous administrations

These are most likely but a fraction of what was left behind. Don't forget that numerous weapons, weapon systems and planes were given to Afghan forces who then left a lot of it behind when they fled the advancing Taliban forces.

"There is still equipment outside the airport that the Taliban took control of when it overran the Afghan Forces in the leadup to the fall of Kabul on August 15. Kirby in a recent press briefing said the U.S. military does not have an exact inventory of the equipment the Taliban now has"

I'm so relieved now!

So we should have disarmed the Afghan Army?

That would be interesting

Exactly

Don't be an idiot. My point is that a lot of shit was left behind so the few planes and things they sabotaged at the airport are probably just a drop in the bucket.

And none of what they got from the Afghan Army is a danger to us

I'm sure the Taliban paid for the chopper

Shocking video shows Taliban flaunt seized Blackhawk

Shocking footage appears to show the Taliban flying seized US Black Hawk helicopters over Afghanistan — including with someone hanging below one from a rope.

To communist democrats this is a good use of air power. The hanged man might make Biden's day by being the American hostage.

 

[lantern2814]

So, the Taliban have some of "OUR weapons and equipment", so this must be $83 billion worth?

Humvees, Blackhawk copters, state of the art weapons and equipment. $83 billion may be on the low end.

 

[lantern2814]

Of course.

I didn't post it for the right on this board.

I posted it for the intelligent people who read this board.

It's always nice to have the facts to the right's lies.

Let us know if you EVER get any facts. See you never.

 

[edthecynic]

Biden handed them the weapons, they weren't seized.

Actually it was the Surrender Monkey Tramp trained Afghan Security Force that handed the weapons to the 5,000 Surrender Monkey Tramp freed terrorists, but you knew that already.

Or might be on the high end.

You don't know, you just wish it were true.

You are just making shit up

Boy you are one fucking idiot.

Bidumb left billions of dollars worth of American military hardware at Bagram. He also left thousands of guns and mountains of ammo.

Do you honestly think the Taliban won't take it all??

If you do, you are the dumbest dumb shit I've ever heard of.
