Yesterday during a press briefing, U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley was adamant from his podium when he proclaimed: “There was nothing that I or anyone else saw that indicated a collapse of this army and this government in 11 days.” WATCH (25 secs):
Unfortunately for General Milley, today reports are surfacing that 23 State Department staff at the Kabul embassy informed Secretary of State Anthony Blinken of exactly that…. Kabul will fall quickly to the Taliban:
[Via Wall Street Journal] … “The cable, sent via the State Department’s confidential dissent channel, warned of rapid territorial gains by the Taliban and the subsequent collapse of Afghan security forces, and offered recommendations on ways to mitigate the crisis and speed up an evacuation, the two people said.
[…] In all, 23 U.S. Embassy staffers, all Americans, signed the July 13 cable, the two people said. The U.S. official said there was a rush to deliver it, given circumstances on the ground in Kabul. The cable was sent to Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Director of Policy Planning Salman Ahmed.
Mr. Blinken received the cable and reviewed it shortly after receipt, according to the person familiar with the exchange, who added that contingency planning was already under way when it was received, and that Mr. Blinken welcomed their feedback.” (link – paywall)
General Mark Milley will likely be the first, perhaps only, person to get removed. He is positioned as the scapegoat, and that statement he read was almost certainly given to him to read by people with full knowledge of the State Dept. warning.
The crisis is not accidental. They knew this was coming. This crisis is intentional to create cover.
“the State Department’s confidential dissent channel…”
What is that?
I think we call it the trash can.
Its the reason I do not believe any of this, right now. I may be over the bend or gun shy after all these years of blatant in your face lies from the deep state feeding their beaten dogs in the press the line they want… but I think “our side” -whatever that remains at this point, should be pretty dubious of both the incompetence angle but ALSO “this is a ploy to get rid of Biden” angle.
I simply do not believe for one instant that this is the result of some persistent reporting getting to the bottom of anything. Something deeper is going on.
It would certainly be easy enough to have Joe Biden step down without all this “collateral damage” to other people involved in this terrible failure . . .
I keep hearing about this being Obama’s third term, Joe is Obama’s puppet, Obama is orchestrating things behind the scenes . . .
but IMHO Obama is just as much a puppet as Joe Biden is . . . he is being used and presented when needed but he is no puppet master although perhaps he has been made to feel that he really IS “all that” . . .
Barry is too stoned to be the puppet master of anything. What do you think all those yearly trips to Hawaii are for?
I thought it was odd that Obama’s mother died so shortly after his inauguration. I remember him going back to Hawaii for her funeral or whatever. I’ve always felt something amiss about the timing of her death.
Er, and the timing of Reggie’s (sp?) death. I recall in the 2012 and possibly 2016 that the mother of bathhouse.Barry.Hussein’s “partner” was still trying to have the case given due interest but media buried her efforts.
… I’ve wondered on this as well. Needed her unavailable for public comment and questioning. As with several other high profile conveniently timed deaths, is she enjoying a well-deserved repose on an island for the “retired” players of the long march?
EXACTLY!
I believe it was his white grandmother that passed away right before Barack took office. His charming mother had passed years earlier. Not sure about the (ahem) real father’s decease.
Zero is a good reader, thinking on his feet? There hasn’t been much evidence in his entire career. Being a master puppeteer, maybe, but methinks that pigs will learn to fly sooner.
No problem understanding this situation, democraps HATE Americans they are doing what they can to destroy us.
Fancy word for a “suggestions box”
The one they throw into the circular filing cabinet..the burn file.
General, a currently disgraced president would call you a lying dog faced pony soldier. A great American Indian would proclaim, you speak with forked tongue. And sir, you are a disgrace to the uniform you wear. Go F yourself.
It’s sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men.
I reckon so.
And to go from movie theater to real life, Henry Ford once said that if you think that the Federal government is going to take care of you, then you need to take a long, hard look at the American Indian.
LOVE^^^^
Central Command submitted a variety of plans that were briefed and approved by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the President.
These plans were coordinated, synchronized and rehearsed to deal with those various scenarios
excluding, of course, the scenario that no one saw coming.One of these contingencies is what we are executing right now.
You’re executing a contingency?
Perhaps one of those briefed and approved, coordinated, synchronized and rehearsed contingencies?
That no one saw coming?
Did Lloyd Austin write this speech?
Lloyd Austin:
Liar, Liar, Pants On Fire! 2.0
OK, sorry Mr. Secretary. It just seemed to bear traces of your remarkable diction.
As credible as the vax failure that nobody saw coming.
Milley must fall on his sword. It is his only way out. His subordinates failed, which means he failed and blaming them makes him look feckless and cowardly. This won’t end well for him. The country is souring on Biden, Harris, the Democrats, and the deep state. With his ‘white nationalist’ lecture is still ringing in our ears and his blustery bullshit has worn thin.
a bit of experience with political staff abs Flag officers here:
if he is forced to resign, it’s unlikely to happen now…that amplifies the problem as this issue in Afghanistan is still active and not yet complete.
probably next year, spring he’ll tender his retirement letter and everyone moves on.
this failure is so obvious, firing him now will have a deleterious effect on the entire military…and then there is a DC and Pentagon political element that needs to be preserved.
if they really want to toss him away, they’ll do it by hanging some allegation of racism or sexual assault on him…that nuclear option seems to happen quite a bit…
anything BUT actually firing him for failure of leadership.
when I joined the military long time ago, I saw.quite a number of relief of command…”lack of confidence”…”conduct unbecoming”, etc…
but for flag and staff officers, particularly joint chiefs, it’s rarely ever done.
I think things change when the Taliban start killing Americans and afghan citizens…
we will see that soon.
sadly
Thank you for that and thank you for serving.
Unlike Trump, Biden will have a hard time firing or punishing’s his underlings irrespective of how badly they foul up or botch things. The fact that he is so openly corrupt means that he is complicit in everything. Any time he gets rid of someone, they become a potential loose end or witness to the mafia ring that is the Democratic Party. When there is incompetence or graft in the organization you have to consider that it is a feature and not a bug.
That was probably Nixon’s problem in Watergate. He could have saved his Presidency had he not attempted to cover things up but that would have required turning on the Plumbers; something that he would not dare to do even if it meant diminishing his standing in history.
I defer to your obvious expertise.
In the impractical art of a General getting his $hit together, a General must be prepared to get his $hit together at any time in the future. In the practical art of a General getting his $hit together,a General should have gotten his $hit together quite some time ago, and it’s probably already too late. Everyone is scroomed.

The evolving Afghanistan bloodbath lays at the feet of Joe Biden and the Democrats.
Lt. Colonel Oliver North: They’ve got the bank records. They got it all thanks to the embassy… It is being reported that the Taliban has captured the payroll data from the American embassy and the Kabul banks showing the names, addresses and phone numbers for locals now being hunted down.
Oliver North told Sean Hannity that the outer perimeter at the Kabul Airport has serious problems because the Taliban now has lists of the names and phone numbers of every Afghan who has worked for our country in the last 20 years.
so the china houston embassy could destroy records but the Biden Admin couldnt in Afghan…
This was a DELIVERY not a closure.
Yup
It’s like the US Embassy in Iran keeping a scrapbook of all their employees including mug shots.
if this was intentional..
then this leads to the next obvious questions:
why would this administration want all those people dead?
is there perhaps some money laundering with that 2.1 trillion dollars that needs to be covered up?
it’s all starting to become clearer.
Afghanistan wasn’t a national security policy issue..it was used as a means to boondoggle.vast money to the Corruptors!
now we get a better interpretation into why this administration seems to have downplayed the imperative to get people out.
It can’t be incompetence. They destroy evidence of their crimes all the time, they “wipe it with a cloth or something” . So they are good at destroying evidence of their own crimes. They do it all the time.
How many high quality honorable officers were denied promotions, to elevate this frowning toady?
Start in 2009. He is The One. Accountability.
It began before that. The removal of patriots and their replacement with lickspittles and fools is a uniparty objective and was merely accelerated by The One.
there is great truth to this…while it is formed in satire, ALL COMEDY BELIES A CERTAIN TRUTH!
on that note, tucker Carlson is doing a special on UFO…
now I’m not a UFO believer…I’m old enough to remember bad grainy photos of Sasquatch…and also 25 plus years that passed before anyone realized we had super stealthy aircraft with incredible capability.
the point? we seem to recycle conspiracy theories that haven’t (yet?) turned out to be truth.
no, I don’t think Tucker has anything special to add to the discussion about UFO..
if I had to evaluate UFO, even latest evidence, which is compelling it’s probably something very similar to advanced DARPA level tech.
or something even more interesting:. virtual rendering in real time. from a military purpose the ability to project a virtual object that is present in all the necessary light spectrum has incredible significance.
if you cannot defeat scanning sensors, then the option becomes:. present false targets!!
that’s all I got
Number Five: There are 50 or more Afghan Air Force fixed wing and helicopter aircraft now safely on the ground in neighboring countries. The senior Afghan officer has appealed directly for help. I have his phone number. Is anyone going to answer his calls? If not, if you’re in the government of the United States, give me a call. I’ll give you his phone number. He’s desperate that the 500 who came out with him get somewhere safe before they are bounced out of Uzbekistan or Tajikistan or God knows where else.
Number Six. The Communist Chinese are apparently on scene working with the Taliban in ways to further disgrace the USA…

Nobody would demand children under the age of 12 be injected with the jab when they have a 99.998% recovery rate
just like
Nobody would evacuate and close a military base BEFORE you evac the civilians
And yet here we are and in both cases, they make no sense.
So is it just plain stupidity or is it time to look into ulterior motives?
All part of The Plan.
It’s called arming our enemies as promised to get Iran no-deal, Pakistan, and others. How do we know if Russia and China are black mailing Hunter/Joe Biden because of all their back room deals.
It’s hard to believe that with so many Black Rock people in their administration that they are instrumental in some decisions.
This chaos is the plan to destroy the USA. Why do you think that on March 4, 2021 that Pelosi said that their magic word “isn’t open sesame, it’s open Biden” while laughing?
It is criminals with a criminal mind. They have no; Rationale, Judgment, Commonsense. It explains what it is such a high rate of criminals eventually get caught. Prisons would empty if it were not the case.
Prisons are not full because there are criminals. Prisons are full because criminals get caught.
Long past time to “look” for ulterior motives. The plan to destroy this nation has been being played out for some time.
China, Iran & Russia all benefit from the debacle Joe put in place. The Biden Crime Family & associates as usual benefits
See Laura Logan’s expose on Fox……. she explains it beautifully.
Modern Milley and Austin are military eunuchs. If either of these pieces of human waste had any sense of decency they’d resign right now. Why isn’t the CCP already taking Taiwan? It certainly isn’t because they have any respect at all for the US military
They still respect the Taiwan military.
The 780 retired generals, ambassadors and “national security professionals” wrote “We believe that Joe Biden is, above all, a good man with a strong sense of right and wrong.” (Well, OK, he was always willing to vote against a bank regulation bill, as long as his local bank in Wilmington was willing to funnel him the “right” bribe and not the “wrong” bribe. And Ukrainian prosecutors investigating his son’s crooked business deals? He knew it was “right” to withhold U.S. taxpayer aid until that “wrong” prosecutor was fired . . . Why, it was even “right” to brag about it on camera! And of course, any Hunter business deal with the Chinese Communists was “right” — never “wrong” — so long as 50 percent went to “The Big Guy.” The only thing I now can’t figure out is why Hunter was fired from the Navy Reserve for smoking crack . . . if crack-smoking is so widespread that all 780 of these morons were simultaneously lit when they signed on to this “Bizarro Superman” version of reality.
But wait, it gets better. They wrote of Joe the Blackrock sock puppet “He is guided by the principles that have long made America great: . . . America’s power and influence stem as much from her moral authority as it does from her economic and military power; Joe Biden will always put the nation’s needs before his own.”
Unless he needs a nap. Like when he failed to return a phone call from the Prime Minister of our NATO ally Great Britain as Afghanistan was going to hell . . . for 36 hours. He didn’t even “let Kamala do it.”
“Those who have served know empathy is a vital leadership quality – you cannot do what is best for those you lead if you do not know their challenges,” the 780 perfumed princes declared. “Joe Biden has empathy born of his humble roots, family tragedies and personal loss. When Americans are struggling, Joe Biden understands their pain and takes it upon himself to help.”
By forcing American children to wear totally useless face masks (they inhale more carbon dioxide, while their chances of dying of “COVID” are about zero, anyway) and barring their parents from patroninzing indoor businesses (restaurants, gyms . . . grocery stores?) — or holding a job with any entity receiving a penny of government money — unless they can PROVE they’ve subjected themselves to a dangerous, experimental RNA alteration experiment . . . which now appears to make one MORE LIKELY to contract a serious respiratory disease, or even, like, die? Well, of course, they’re free to quit instead — except Joe shut down all the pipelines and refineries, driving up the price of gas and groceries till working-class people are barely hanging on if they can KEEP those jobs.
Besides which, there are now how many million more illegal aliens fanning out across the country (with Empathy Joe’s help and blessing) trying to TAKE AWAY those jobs (including lots of new would-be Muslim terrorists), because Joe Biden refuses to enforce the immigraiton laws he SWORE TO ENFORCE?
Oh, the empathy!
But speaking of this man’s empathy: Democrat tool G. Stephanopoulos asks how he feels about those desperate Afghans falling to their deaths after clinging to that C-4s landing gear as it departed Kabul, and full-of-empathy Joe tells Tiny Gerorge not to bother him about ancient history: “Anh, that was four or five days ago,” sneers Empathy Joe. Two, actually, Joe. Your supposed “empathy” seems to have expired after TWO days.
So yeah, where are these 780 Democrat tools, who prefer Joe’s handling of the Afghan withdrawal to that they would have gotten from Donald Trump, who our country’s enemies knew would respond to their crossing him by, you know, KILLING them? But oh, Trump’s hair, and oh, Trump used to have a TV show, and oh, Trump “tweeted too much,” and oh, Trump dared to call out our lying communist “mainstream” press for their partisan lies and thoroughly invented “Russia Russia Russia” narratives, instead of shuffling his toe in the dirt and saying “Ah, c’mon guys, why don’t you treat me nice?” the way Junior Bush would have.
Nice to have that list of names. Remove their security clearances immediately. (They were disparaging a sitting commander-in-chief. Do YOU trust their loyalty and judgment?) Probably nothing to be done about their military pensions and benefits, but inform all government agencies that none of these led-by-the-nose commie sheep are to receive another penny of government pay, especially not for “teaching” their cynical Soros lies at any military base, academy, or training center.

Too bad General Mike Flynn wasn’t running this operation.
Then again, if our President Trump had not been cheated out of the election, none of this horror would have happened.
When am I going to wake up from this nightmare?
Answer: When at least 50 million more Americans wake up politically.
Or the other 84 million of us decide to get off our duffs and take care of business. Waiting for more Americans to wake up will be about a hundred years too late.
Real Answer: When we fix our corrupt voting system
… or 50 million Americans die of the flue shot.

But they sure are good at destroying evidence of their own crimes.

They left that info on purpose. imo
Your typical song and dance man. Name change to general numb nuts.
I noticed this previously in the photo of Milley briefing up the benefits of CRT, and again here: Look at his eyes. He’s a caged rat.
One of the not-funny jokes about the five-sided funhouse is that it helps if you have more than one soul to sell.
So hang him up. And hang up the Darth Vader moron. Hang up Dementia Joe.
At what point do we hang up the real perpetrators of this war against America?
It seems an endless blame game, and the puppeteers skate free. Follow the money. This must end.
Milley was baseing his estimates on the speed of camels, he didn’t know the Taliban could drive.
No he just forgot.??
Betty Davis quote
President Trump holding a REAL briefing at Camp David. The symbols in the Red Boxes indicate the microphone is on.
Joe Biden sitting at a table with the microphone off, pretending he is having a conference on the Afghan Crisis
So it is stock photo with super impose image on TV?
Happy to share the source. The photos are just stock photos with red boxes added to show where the “microphone on” notification should be. The source of the photos is here:
https://rairfoundation.com/staged-camp-david-photos-bidens-mic-is-off-time-discrepancy-white-house-ignores-questions/
I resized them so they would fit on the page. In the article the pictures are something like 1200 x 800 pixels so you can zoom in on them and read the details.
The Biden photo is from the White House official Twitter page,which you can link to through the article.
I guess it’s possible Biden thought it was a real conference and didn’t know his mike was off, but my guess is he knew it was a staged photo. The WH refused to answer questions about the photo according to the article
The display case President. The use by date is getting nearer and nearer.
The recount should be the AZ, MI and GA Senate seats.
biden supporters use smears like uneducated or facist to kill people leading to 50 shot vegas/portland, then they had media say motive unknown, they order cops to stand down while burn loot, they use thugs to attack people with stand down cops in san jose, they never accept results of 2016 election so they blame russia like a cult just to cover up fact bush/obama presidency all rigged to kill iraq to syria

In all seriousness: The red flag is larger, and flying higher than ever before. If people dont wake up and speak up, and all of congress, along with that zombie that occupies the white house arent tossed to the curb, we are doomed as a nation.
So it was an open secret that the Bidenistas had previously been supplying the Taliban with plenty of weapons and equipment.
Why does scumbag McCarthy day even if GOP wins again he would never impeach Joe Demento?

I went back and read just one article based on a search of “Ghani visits Joe Biden”, and even before he visited you could infer from the article that the country was set to fall any time.
Before the visit the Taliban already had 80 districts easy, and the Afghan fighters were just giving it up along with all the weapons caches they had. Walking away. The Taliban just moved right on the the next one and took it and so on. The visit was Jun 25th. They were claiming that it would fall in 6 months then, but that is not what it sounded like to me. They were on a mission and weren’t stopping until they had the prize.
Can Biden Save Ashraf Ghani?
25 Jun 2021
By Elise Labott
https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/06/25/biden-ashraf-ghani-afghan-government
Frankly, from this article it looks like Ghani was as bad a Commander-in-Chief as Biden, and was as good as Biden for picking morons to surround himself with.
“What difference does it make” ? May she rot in hell. But that’s where we are right now. We Patriots can not run to Afghanistan and rescue Americans while British Soldiers are doing just that for their own citizens. It’s not the ground soldiers it’s the “woke” may they rot too in hell Generals. Trump won and Biden was Installed. Let me say this I wish that DJT would stop with “the election was stolen” and remark in his grand style what is wrong right now. He is so social media stifled but we will follow where he leads. I want him to lead us. If not Biden is gone Harris is in with Pelosi at her side. God save us all!
Director of Policy Planning Salman Ahmed
A wonderful American I’m sure.
For some reason, the gravy train that is the War in Afghanistan had to end. And it had a short window in which to end – by Aug 31. And when it happened, everyone was supposed to be on vacation – Biden, Harris, Psaki, the CIA director – everything was handed over to the second or third string spokespeople, and a couple of expendable generals. Even Obama was conspicuously away at a birthday party leading up to this. Any after action review will include carefully curated intelligence/ military/ state dept briefings (the 23 from state dept in Kabul will be offset by 100 who didn’t sign that letter). Why? Don’t know. Maybe it’s Biden’s swan song legacy.
Crisis intended to create cover for what?
Maybe we should be checking our 6…
The Biden regime would have had a better outcome if they put that fairy who was prancing around the White House pushing the Wuhan Flu shot on Tic Tok in charge of Afghanistan.
Like I keep saying – Kabuki Theatre.
There is no way these generals + analysts did not know the Afghan Government could fall this fast. Contingency Plans should have been made for a variety of likely possibilities.
This is an orchestrated stage play —- designed to — given an excuse for Biden to resign or be removed from office — which he’s secretly thrilled about – because he’ll be able to go to his secure retirement place + count the extra millions of $ he garnered for playing this role in the the last election….
So the question is, what did Blinken do with the cable?
The article suggests “the administration” took even more drastic action than the senders wanted, but it doesn’t specify whether that is administration at the State Derp, or the administration as a whole. It goes on to mention embassy staff were working at the airport until even the embassy became too dangerous. Was this how the administration acted? Moving flunkies to the airport?
I am not defending that putz Milley warming a chair at JCS, but there has been a lot of finger pointing over the last couple weeks, and we are settling into the azz covering phase. Blinken may have gotten a cable, but what action did he take?
It says the cable was sent July 13, but even if it was and Blinken ran naked over the White House lawn to deliver it to Kamala, it doesn’t seem to have affected how Biden’s whole administration acted.
There were some serious shots taken at State by DOD, and State at DOD, and sometimes both at Intel over the past several days.
Milley needs to go, but there are a horde of clowns that should be sitting beside him in his clown car when he goes.
these cables ARE READ OUT BY EVERY SINGLE SECRETARY AND CABINET LEVEL OFFICIAL UP TO AND INCLUDING THE CINC, JCS, VICE AND PRESIDENT..
it’s not at all like some sitrep…it has a much higher and broader distribution.
so of anyone is thinking that maybe Austin or milley didn’t get the message … that is wrong.
what is likely,? it didn’t fit their manufactured narrative, and they never believed the cable would be leaked.
like so many of the blunders we are aware of, it’s clear they didn’t even have a set of liars contingency for this one either!
Intentionally creating cover for what, Sundance? More arms sales to Muslim Brotherhood types? Giving away weapons, ammo, high tech gear (night vision), drones but then claiming it was all stolen? Or cover for something completely different in a different arena? Curious what you suspect or know, sir. But as Logan said, someone WANTED this to happen.
That is for sure.
It’s cover and distraction from the ongoing Covid shot debacle. IMO
A liar & a disgrace. Too busy looking for that “white rage” & labeling those who support the REAL President Trump, as white supremacists & extremists.
Pure evil. This is where the real evil lives. The blood of all those innocents is on the hands of all these liars, who once again are covered by the state media.
Not going to work this time. The UK Sun Newspaper. Headline. Joke Biden
He was too busy with more important things, like critical race theory and lbgqtzydelfylyrleyfl rights.
One lie on top of another, on top of another…
Read about ghost soldiers in Afghanistan- they knew the Afghans didn’t have 300,000 strong to fight against the Taliban- that was just a number on paper- reports going years about accountability.
The crisis is not accidental. They knew this was coming. This crisis is intentional to create cover.
Now I’m genuinely puzzled–cover for what?
AZ audit results?
China invading Taiwan next week?
It’s cover and distraction from the ongoing Covid shot debacle. IMO
This clown is an Ivy League stooge where he majored in politics. It should be of no surprise the darkness of his heart.
I’m not buying the “Biden is incompetent” story because it is too simplistic and it doesn’t take the bigger picture into account. Biden is a muppet, a mascot, a front-man for the public to love or hate, and that’s all he is. Yes, he can barely read from a teleprompter, but it’s his puppeteers that make the big decisions, not Biden. They are evil people, but not incompetent.
“Salman Ahmed”? We have a Muslim “Director of Policy Planning” for Afghanistan?
What could go wrong? Maybe exactly what did go wrong.
Of course it would have been “Islamophobic” to vet him for sympathies with jihadist/orthodox Islam. Obama’s rules.
On 9-11 we were told it happened because the different security departments were not communicating with each other. Thus we got the NSA. They knew exactly what was happening and they could have stopped it. Pakistan is the key here. Afghanistan has been the biggest money grab in Washington DC for decades. Washington does exactly what it has to to get the desired result it wants. No exceptions.
A vid from 2014 just surfaced of late sen mcstain taking to the floor to reject bathhouse Barry’s nomination for dep sec of state blinken, calling him a dangerous individual to America… http://www.oann.com. bye bye blinken…
One would think, that General Milley being a Ranger himself, would know this.
But Milley claims the US military lacks such specialized forces.
That was 40 years and 75 lbs ago. He is a bloated bureaucrat in other words a lying useless idiot. Now that we know there were cables from people on the ground warning of the imminent overrun of the Taliban in country how does his lies of never receiving any prior warning look now?
Milley is too weak to resign. Biden is to weak to ask for his resignation and the eGOP is nowhere to be found. Screw Taiwan, I would be worried of a Chinese attack on the homeland.
I still haven’t seen photos or video of State Dept employees, CIA, Contractors, NGO’s, Businessmen, no one from the CONUS trying to escape, only the Afghans that all supposedly worked for us. Where are those people?
I don’t want Milley to have a chance to resign. I want him FIRED!!
This was a willful and intentional PRE-PLANNED ..Operation Chaos by the Kenyan/SoreA*S/CCP Cabal.
This guy is an a.. kissing moron.
I looked up today if anyone lost their job over the Iran hostage rescue.
Interestingly, SoS Cyrus Vance resigned before the op because he didn’t believe it would work.
I can’t help but wonder why no one resigned over deserting Bagram AFB in the dead of night, leaving so much equipment behind
General Scottie Miller Who Recommended Closing Bagram Air Force Base left Afghanistan in July and Is Expected to Retire SoonBy Jim Hoft
…
On Wednesday during their confused and pathetic press conference on the Afghanistan catastrophe woke General Mark Milley blamed former CENTCOM Commander Scottie Miller for making the call to abandon Bagram Air Force Base, a strategic military base in Afghanistan.
…
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2021/08/general-scottie-miller-recommended-closing-bagram-air-force-base-left-afghanistan-july-expected-retire-soon/
Why isn’t Congress hauling his ass in for questioning. Why isn’t the press camped out at Scottie’s house hounding him every day?
J just had a horrible thought. What if the plans of our currant “Anti -America” administration, is to not only abandon the American civilians, but send the best and brightest of our military over there and abandon them also.
They are sending thousands and keeping them all within the airport complex . No rescue missions allowed outside the complex .
After the last plane of “God knows who” leaves they may say it is not safe to fly aircraft in to remove our troops.
Just a thought but these people are not friends of our rank and file military.
Hopefully they, even, are not that evil!
They are ..
And they’ve demonstrated that evil over and over again. America just didn’t want to recognize it.
I heard yesterday that the Afghan military ran out of ammunition back in June.
I do not recall the source because I have been listening to and reading a lot.
BUT if true no wonder the Afghan military could not fight back.
Why did this happen and who decided it would happen, it this is true.
I am too distrustful of the deep state swamp to think that they are innocent and that makes them pure EVIL.
They are exactly that evil.
No, they are not “exactly that evil.” They are even more evil than that.
Do not doubt it for one minute.
Hope isn’t a strategy…
I just thought the exact same thing! Remember all the Special Forces who were killed during the lightbringer’s time right after bin laden was killed?
I put nothing last these American haters. Lord help us!
Joe killed them by revealing who killed binladen…the Taliban hunted down seal team 6 based on intelligence provided by then vice president bidet
More than that. Someone decided to load max capacity on a aircraft and send them into a hot zone without the required firepower cover.
Remember when blab mouth Biden revealed to the world that it was Seal Teamm6 that took out BinLaden? Nearly all of them were killed when (who?) shot down their helicopter? And even though they saw the (who?) with anti aircraft missiles aimed at them on the landing area, they were constrained by the idiotic Obama ROE not to fire first? Obama and loose lipped Joe handed them the opportunity to retaliate. Obama/Biden may have had “deniability” but not innocence.
I remember my friend’s son was on that chopper same people doing the same thing. gun sales.
That was a purposed shoot down, intended to kill all making sure there were NO leaks on the real binLaden story.
We just past the anniversary (if you can call it that) of Extortion 17. Joe’s loose lips brought down a helicopter with our guys on it.
I will never forget that. It was clearly a set up to make amends to his Islamic brothers for being cornered into taking Osama out. A setup just like Benghazi. That is what my gut told me when they were blaming a video while the fire fight was still going on. Some people needed to be silenced and documents destroyed. Pre determined alibi or blame always indicates guilt and/or cover-up. As always, just my read on things.
A slightly different take on my part, this administration of grift is in permanent stand down telling the world all of the USA is on it’s own to defend itself. Buck up!
I’m with you on this administration’s grift.
But honestly, going back a good way there have been plenty of grifters in every administration. Then add to that the grifters in Congress (on both sides of the aisle) and the high-ranking federal employee grifters.
I pay little attention to whether a politician has an R or a D behind their names. I assume none of the Democrats can be trusted and that most of them are closet socialists, if not outright communists. Where Republicans are concerned many of them have shown they are unreliable, particularly at times when they are most needed to hold the line.
As far as drifting is concerned, how many of our elected officials at that national level are entirely self-funded? I can’t think of a single one. Therefore, they are all grifters to some extent.
A MUCH MORE CYNICAL AND CALCULATING REASON FOR ALL THIS IS:
1] Lets just assume that Afghanistan was a corrupt money laundering enterprise designed to take American tax payer money and divert it to corrupt American officials, defense contractors and business people.
2] A phased withdrawal would allow your Afghan co-conspirators and witnesses to emigrate to the United States and either testify against you or blackmail you for payoffs not to disclose what was going on.
3] However, an instantaneous withdrawal allows the Taliban to clean up all of the individuals who might one day expose exactly what was going on. (Hence, the cancellation of the State Dept. crisis evacuation unit.)
HISTORICAL PRECEDENT: Joseph Stalin faced the same problem with undesirables in the WARSAW UPRISING (1944). In that case Poles who wanted freedom in their own country and a voice in the new post-Nazi government were encouraged to revolt in the city, under the proviso that the Soviet army would link-up with them. However, Stalin halted his army and allowed the Nazis to liquidate the rebels… and thus Stalin’s problem was solved: no more freedom loving anti-Soviet Poles.
Thus, the Taliban, like the SS, serve to “liquidate” your problem (eg: no more corrupt Afghan police chief).
Just a thought, for what it is worth…
All too plausible.
Maybe its time for Americans to stop volunteering.
We need them here.
Sickening thought, even more sickening if true.
Makes since and begs the question . Who is the Taliban allowing into the airport and onto our planes. That is as scary as them leaving our americans behind. Our government appears to have already been invaded by the enemy. That is why “We The People” are considered a threat. Not to our country but to our foreign controlled government. All of it !
That goes without saying.
It’s easier than jail them in DC in solitary confinement without charges like the Jan 06 patriots
Hopefully the Brits would help them get out if that happened. Their vote to hold biden in contempt was needed. They did it, and I am grateful for it.
Hold the rank and file in contempt….as they do we violent white domestic terrorists.
Military personnel were left in Vietnam. This would be no different.
Motivation for this would be much more evil. We are not talking about incompetence. Biden was installed because he was the perfect patsy. He truly has no idea what is going on and gives cover to the evil behind the curtain. When the masters are done with him he will be tossed the curb . He sold his soul years ago. The debt is now due.
Nothing this regime does surprises me, there is a reason for all of this chaos, it isn’t for the good of any of us.
