Being lied to over and over by our government is getting pretty old. Was it General Sullivan who took responsibility for killing the innocent family and claiming it was ISIS? He just says its his fault and that he's sorry and that's that?
I’m mostly following Putin huddling with his ministers in an unusual fashion recently. Putin appears to be remapping how his economy is directed in a fashion similar to China’s recent changes.

Putin & Germany. Putin & Turkey. Putin & China. He’s lining up his allies.

What I did hear was the Generals claiming they wanted to have 2500 troops in Kabul. Well, sure. They are in the business of combat. The idea was always to gtfo.

2500 grows when some shit goes down as it inevitable will. It never ends. Trump & Biden did the right thing. We got our ass kicked and it ended similarly. Losing sucks.

Trust me I could easily find some fresh diplomatic failure without too much difficulty. You should be very concerned.
