Sound advice both Biden and Trump should have listened too.

Dec. 23, 2020
After a week-long deal to reduce violence across Afghanistan, the U.S. and the Taliban signed a historic agreement Saturday that would see U.S. troops start to withdraw, according to a statement issued Friday afternoon by President Donald Trump.

April 14 2021
President Joe Biden said the war in Afghanistan was never meant to be multi-generational, as he officially announced the drawdown of all 2,500 U.S. troops in that country beginning May 1 and concluding by Sept. 11, the 20th anniversary of the war.

Neither removed one piece of equipment, not even transporting any of it to a country in the ME, with a US military base as a transfer spot.

Biden’s handlers do not care.

Damn I've been looking for this video. It's impossible to find on YouTube (unsurprising).

This is only the millionth or so time this has been said, but notice how much more coherent Biden was back then. It's like watching a completely different person. He has no frigging idea where he is or what he's saying most of the time now. If you showed him that video, his first reaction would probably be to ask who that was, and he also wouldn't comprehend the inconsistency. I bet he doesn't even remember the Afghanistan withdrawal most of the time.

He didn't have control over the weapons, the Taliban started overtaking the afghan army in 2019 and by the end of 2021 it was all he could do want get the people out, he couldn't force people to evacuate.

We had control of Afghanistan in 2007.

 

[pknopp]

Well hopefully we have learned that the answer here is to NOT send it in the first place.

 

[elektra]

Biden screwed up, left Americans behind. Biden gave weapons to terrorists. Are we surprised?

Oh no, Biden can't force people to get vaccinated, nor not travel, or wear a mask. The democrats can't force solar and wind power on us. They can't force us to pay taxes. But what they did in Afghanistan has nothing to do with what you imply.

Force, democrats are tyrants that more than force many things on the public

Biden stated several months before the withdrawal, that the Afghanistan army could hold the Taliban. Another Biden lie.

He didn't try to, he left them behind.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Really?

The Trump administration in February 2020 negotiated a withdrawal agreement with the Taliban that excluded the Afghan government, freed 5,000 imprisoned Taliban soldiers and set a date certain of May 1, 2021, for the final withdrawal.

And the Trump administration kept to the pact, reducing U.S. troop levels from about 13,000 to 2,500, even though the Taliban continued to attack Afghan government forces and welcomed al-Qaeda terrorists into the Taliban leadership.

And never moved one piece of equipment, to.....................Anywhere...............in 11 months.

 

[Nuthin' Fancy]

They had from February 2020 to get the fuck out, 18 months, fuck them, if they are that stupid, it's no one's fault but their own.

Don't be a moron.

The Biden withdrawal was not the same one that would have occurred under Trump.

“Key Trump Defense Official Refutes Blinken, Says Trump Left Afghan Withdrawal Plan For Biden

A former key Defense Department official is calling out the Biden team for claiming that the Trump administration did not leave Joe Biden a plan for the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.

During an interview with Just The News, Kash Patel — the former chief of staff to Acting Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller — hit back against claims from Secretary of State Antony Blinken for claiming that the Trump administration did not leave Biden a plan for the Afghanistan withdrawal.

Blinken testified before Congress that Trump left Biden a deadline for leaving Afghanistan without a plan. Patel responded to that claim by saying: “No, absolutely not.” Patel accused Blinken of playing “politics with the national security apparatus of the United States.”

“We actually did not leave them a deadline,” he said. “It was a negotiation between the U.S. government, the Taliban, and the Afghans. And if that date was not to work for this incoming administration, they could have moved it.”

Patel said Trump’s overall plan was to “peacefully negotiate yourself out of Afghanistan with a conditions-based withdrawal. And the world knew that was President Trump’s plan.”



“And they knew that they couldn’t cross at least President Trump’s threat to rain down on them, should they harm a U.S. personnel or allied member,” Patel said. “And that was the difference, really, between our plan and their plan.”

When asked about what the Trump administration’s plans would have been, Patel said: “American citizens would be drawn out first, safely, and we would identify them through the process that is in place when you methodically do something with the military, the State Department, and the intelligence community.”

“There’s a difference when you evacuate versus proactively go get them,” Patel added.

The plan, he said, “was to make sure we got to every American before we left the military, before we left Bagram [Air Base], before we left equipment, and left a crisis like the Biden administration did.”

As for the plan for leaving Bagram Air Base, Patel said that it was “the very last thing we do in the country after Americans were out after our equipment was out and/or destroyed, after the thousands of detainees at Bagram were adjudicated” and airlifted out of the country.”

Patel rounded out his comments by arguing that the Biden administration “bucked” NATO allies at Bagram “when Biden said, ‘We’re up and leaving.'” 'What They Chose To Do Was Break The Entire Agreement': Trump Actually Did It - Report Reveals Biden Was Left a Withdrawal Plan: Kash Patel Claims

Tell me who was president when the withdrawal happened? Biden made the final decision, so it is his 100%. If it went smoothly, you would give Trump zero credit. You're a proven hypocrite.

It appears to be Democrat policy to arm our enemies.

the Taliban seized way more ScanEagle drones than the government is saying they did. There is no accounting on the number of crashed units.

Direct Quote from Report
“This also raises concerns about how NAVAIR justified procuring 105 ScanEagle vehicles totaling over $32 million and spare parts totaling over $52 million, and future planned procurements.”

This week, the SIGAR audit on the $174 million drone loss disappeared from its website. Here is the link that was removed.

Here is a breakdown of estimated vehicle costs:

• Armored personnel carriers such as the M113A2 cost $170,000 each and recent purchases of the M577A2 post carrier cost $333,333 each.
• Mine resistant vehicles ranges from $412,000 to $767,000. The total cost could range between $382 million to $711 million.
• Recovery vehicles such as the ‘truck, wrecker’ cost between for the base model $168,960 and $880,674 for super strength versions.
• Medium range tactical vehicles include 5-ton cargo and general transport trucks were priced at $67,139. However, the family of MTV heavy vehicleshad prices ranging from $235,500 to $724,820 each. Cargo trucks to transport airplanes cost $800,865.
• Humvees – ambulance type (range from $37,943 to $142,918 with most at $96,466); cargo type, priced at $104,682. Utility Humvees were typically priced at $91,429. However, the 12,000 lb. troop transport version cost up to $329,000.
• Light tactical vehicles: Fast attack combat vehicles ($69,400); and passenger motor vehicles ($65,500). All terrain 4-wheel vehicles go up to $42,273 in the military databases.

UPDATE: Biden's Gift to Taliban Included 110 Helicopters, 20 Light Attack Airplanes, 42,000 Light Attack Vehicles, 25,000 Grenade Launchers​

If you thought the Joe Biden Afghanistan disaster was bad now – things are going to get much worse. Joe Biden supplied the Taliban terrorist organization and their Islamist accomplices with billions of dollars worth of US armaments. Rather than destroying the equipment before leaving the...
