Since the last administration, Afghan government was not involved in negotiations with Taliban, and this sudden not calculated retreat. Can someone explain what is the mentality of the people who are agreeing with this. I have not seen one military person interview saying this is what they wanted.

Seems like no one knows what is going on. We gifted the Taliban 700 vehicles, hummers, drones, and even a few Blackhawk helicopters. How could securing our valuable physical assets not be important enough for our military. It makes us look like incompetent fools. Furthermore our estimates for when Kabul will be lost to Taliban have been wildly off and went from 90 days to 3 days overnight. It’s a total disaster over there and no matter what anyone says these things are the responsibility of the current administration and military. Total embarrassment so far. The audacity of the Taliban to even dare try to steal 700 vehicles from the USA. This alone brings aggression from other enemies and for that reason alone is grounds for us making a strong demand to get our stuff back or else risk our re-entry. Taliban should have a choice between letting us leave with our stuff or having us come back in force.

Fear not, for the vehicles were left without keys, so they were useless to everyone including the Afghan army.

I just saw some videos of teenage girls being dragged to be forced married on the street. Not sure how I can unsee it, really.
