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.
I agreed with the decision Mr Trump made to get us out of there and with Mr Biden for finishing the job; I just hate being lied to especially when most people understand the generals would want to remain there indefinitely. Just own the decisions and tell the truth. That's all Gen. Sullivan had to do in explaining how it was his fault that innocent family was killed after the lies telling us they were ISIS. I guess its all water under the bridge now.
I am realistic enough to recognize the outrage over the withdrawal was political theater. Weaponizing the withdrawal for politics. Get the libs. I am above that crap.

Nobody really cares about Afghanistan now and they never did.

Rest assured we are poised and eager to move on to the next one. I am astonished by the weapon deals these past few weeks. Not just Britain/US and Australia.
