Biden's just the figure head. Obama, Rice, Jarrett, and other radicals like them are the ones really calling the shots here.

So, are we blaming the Taliban or ISIS K? I'm just catching up here.
They both play the same game. It's like saying Bama is different from A&M.

I'm trying really hard to not get banned today, but I'm so pissed at the people that voted for this potato right now. Ticked at the media too that covered for him. Use your brain next time or just stay home and don't vote.

This nightmare is getting worse and worse every day. We do not have a functioning president right now and 10's of thousands of people are going to suffer horrible death and rape because of his incompetence. And now we have 2k troops trapped behind enemy lines and we are forced to beg the Taliban for their release.
5200 American troops still at the airport.

Propoganda. All of it.

Our institutions only care about perception. Not reality.

Tear them all down, replace everyone.

At this point it looks like China is running this administration. Everything is about rank humiliation and disregard for current events.

I am not going to start killing random people - I retired 7 years ago.....

But I assume the Biden admin (since he said what he said) is trying to find out who is responsible and then "meet them with swift and violent action".

How many troops were killed while Trump was in office? I'm wondering if Biden has already passed that point because I don't think there were very many from 1/17-1/21.
Here are the numbers I found for US service men/women killed in Afghanistan broken down into hostile and non-hostile causes by year

Because I'm unaware of how many were killed while Trump was in office? I honestly don't know but have a feeling that number is getting ready to be topped. It wasn't really in the news and is a terrible situation either way.

Sorry if that makes your boy Biden's leadership look bad.


If you look at my posting history, it is clear Biden is not "my boy"

My bad on misunderstanding your original post. I'm flying through these and I'm pissed. My first take when I read it was that you were trying to imply that more servicemen died under Trump so everything is still ok. I apologize.

I had no idea it peaked as late as it did. It feels like the media shifted to Iraq pretty fast and Afghanistan faded from the news earlier. Around that time I was pulling 100 hour weeks so there's a lot I don't remember.

Sometimes when my kids are misbehaving I issue a memorandum to them and condemn their actions in no uncertain words. It always works....

I would assume this Pentagon briefing is to announce we are going in hard and dry. Of course we all know what assuming makes you.

my 5 years so far as a parent has taught me that threatening words are usually headed and effective so long as there is a belief that the threat behind them is very real. the moment it is perceived that the threat is a bluff, all obedience goes right out the window.

No big deal, I'm probably coming off a little unclear because I'm juggling rounding up my 2 year old to come along and pick up my 5 year old at the bus stop while organizing a ton of documentation to re-up a certification that's due every 3 years.

It's a little chaotic over here to say the least

At the moment, despite the numerous explosions in Kabul , more C17, A400m and c130, especially Americans and British, are heading there. Including c130's from the US AFSOC (Special Operations).

100% agree. unfortunately we are led by people who will end it with a tweet and allow the "misbehaving" to continue...

Plan is to draw down conventional forces and allow SOF to be the last ones and leave on C-130's.
