B-Man Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 Biden administration was warned Last Month by US diplomats in Kabul of impending Taliban 'catastrophe' if troops withdrew and urged evacuations of All Americans to begin on August 1 by Geoff Earle State Department officials in the Kabul embassy told the Biden administration last month that the Afghan capital would fall and to speed up evacuations, a new report claims.A dozen diplomats sent a confidential memo in a dissent channel to Secretary of State Anthony Blinken on July 13 that the Taliban was rapidly gaining ground and the city was vulnerable to collapse, the Wall Street Journal reported.On July 8, President Biden said it was 'highly unlikely' the Taliban would take control of Afghanistan and denied there would be chaos in Kabul. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9910153/Blinken-warned-month-Kabul-fall-report-claims.html 1
Doc Posted August 20, 2021 Posted August 20, 2021 Apparently there is a "fighting season" in Afghanistan (WTF?) that runs from April to October. Why wasn't this scheduled in, say, November? Oh wait, that's right.

B-Man Posted August 23, 2021 Posted August 23, 2021 EVERYTHING IS GOING SWIMMINGLY: Afghan staff at U.S. Embassy losing faith in evacuation efforts, diplomatic cable says. Staffers reported being jostled, hit, spat on and cursed at by Taliban fighters at checkpoints near the airport, it said, adding that criminals were taking advantage of the chaos while the U.S. military tried to maintain order “in an extremely physical situation.” Some staff members reported that they were almost separated from their children, while others collapsed in a crush of people and had to be taken to hospitals with injuries, the cable said. Others said they had collapsed on the road because of heat exhaustion, it said. “It would be better to die under the Taliban’s bullet” than face the crowds again, a staff member was quoted as saying in the cable. None of this was necessary. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/afghan-staff-u-s-embassy-losing-faith-evacuation-efforts-diplomatic-n1277397 A cautionary note for those who think what is unfolding in Aghanistan is a local problem for the 15,000 Americans and our Afghan allies trapped there, plus a geopolitical humiliation. A lot has been said about Russia and China taking advantage of this. Also worth noting however that international jihad was on the ropes, after the destruction of ISIS in Iraq and Syria, with the Taliban stalemated in Afghanistan. International jihad just had a big win. That is going to have a ripple effect. Or maybe more like a tsunami. International jihad is back. Weird, it pretty much disappeared 2017 through 2020. 1

All because he wanted troops out by 9/11 and (reportedly) didn't want more weapons flying into Bagram past July 4th (as if he didn't have the authority to stop the shipments). 1

B-Man Posted August 24, 2021 Posted August 24, 2021 The Lessons of Afghanistan By Steve Baldwin What is occurring in Afghanistan is not surprising to most conservatives, as this crisis only confirms the corruption and ineffectiveness that dominates our foreign policy establishment and military leadership. While this crisis is far from over, there are already a number of sobering lessons that Americans have learned: 1) The “America Last” agenda of the Democrat Party remains in place. It is simply unprecedented to have American military troops extracted from a crisis before every American citizen has been evacuated so once again, American citizens are treated as if they were lepers. Even in Vietnam in 1975, the military did not leave until all citizens were evacuated. Moreover, what’s worse is the Biden Administration is spending far more time, money, and effort evacuating Afghanis than they are Americans. They even announced that Americans are on their own to get to the airport while 5,000 troops on the ground are ordered to do nothing but seal off the airport. And at least one report says that the State Department was intending to charge all Americans $2,000 to fly them home but apparently, they changed their mind. 2) Dismantling Trump’s policies is more important than national security. We now know the Biden Administration disbanded a State Department unit called the “Contingency and Crisis Response Bureau” which was created especially to draw up plans regarding the evacuation of Americans from situations like the one we have now. 3) “Social Justice” issues are now such a high priority in the military that it has affected its effectiveness. We now know that our military spends an inordinate amount of time, money, and energy championing phony “social justice” causes, both at home and abroad. Even the gay agenda in Afghanistan apparently received more attention than developing evacuation plans: (Excerpt) Read more at americanthinker: https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2021/08/the_lessons_of_afghanistan.html 1
