Say their names, Joe.

Out loud, on National TV. All four of those Marines and any others that die because of your screwup.

Then go personally apologize to their families because you own this - at your own admission, you own it.

More likely that POS is huddled with his handlers discussing the political impact like Hilldawg during Benghazi.



This. Say their names, Joe.

Yes, they know so much that isn't so and have no humility whatsoever.

These are the faces of many of the most dangerous enemies the United States has today. Leftist unelected career staffers and bureaucrats that just get recirculated from one left wing controlled gov institution to the next.

Their accountability is coming. In this life, or the next. Particularly Susan Rice, Psaki, and Valerie Jarrett.


The Benghazi disaster and the false story of the video causing it with the ridiculous arrest of the video maker should be enough that these people would never in power again. But it wasn't.

My little trip to the TexAgs corner taught me one thing: I need to spend more time on this board and figure out who the players are.

YP97, my apologies for misreading your post and launching when you were trying to help me out. Mea Culpa.

And for the guy that started this, then laughed about it May you live forever.

If the violence continues, our troops can't get out


It is our leaders job to make it secure. Make the decisions necessary to guarantee we command the situation.

And blow up the only runway in town? It's a CF. Outside the wire mixed with civies. Inside the wire you risk destroying your only way out.

No, not from the air. I think the guys on the ground would mow them down as they entered the airport.

Unfortunately that's what should happen if this is the case, should and what are don't equal.

I guarantee he has given worse ROE's than obummer had in regards to PID. And yes there's ways to write the report to spin PID, but I bet everyone is double taking rather than just letting training do its thing.

I hope so. If it's true. Never know in these situations. Reporting is fluid.

At this point, you can not worry about civilians. This has literally turned into survival mode by all means necessary for our troops. Unfortunately, civilians will now have to be collateral damage, if necessary, because of feckless joe and his woke joint chiefs.

Not to mention the airport is mostly within the city. No standoff to engage at a distance. Could be breached from almost direction.

The error of giving up Bagram grows larger by the second.

It really does rate the "left in office with pistol with one round" of the GRU.

How do we not have close air support overhead after the first bomb went off earlier today?

Milley and all the other ****wits overseeing this need to go.

The airport is in the middle of the city for starters. Unless we declare total war and start smoking civilians by the thousands it's difficult to use bombs.

Second there is zero airbase in Afghanistan to fly out of. All operations are coming outside of country so time over target is extremely limited.


This situation is the worse we have ever been in. It's so bad at this point I can only think it was intentional.

Particularly with unilateral abandonment of the Bagram air base.

Exactly. And leaving all of them our assets and gear. It was done on purpose.

That's my point. We should still have Bagram to support this situation from.

And I'm not talking carpet bombing, I'm talking strafing runs on the airport perimeter for any breaches, predators overhead, SpecOps Hercules orbiting.

I'm aware of the situation that these social justice warrior clowns at the Pentatgon put us in, they should all be going hari kari in their offices this afternoon.

Yup, and they have our uniforms and could easily infiltrate during the choas of suicide bombings and fire fights.
