“The fact that the Afghan army we and our partners trained simply melted away – in many cases without firing a shot – took us all by surprise,” Austin told the Senate Armed Services Committee. “It would be dishonest to claim otherwise.”

I don’t even have words for this

Literay everyone following the war (which almost no one in America did since 2014, as between the 5 top networks there was just the total of 1 hour of Afghanistan coverage on TV news in over half decade after American grunts stopped dying there, as there was literally 1,000 Afghan forces killed for each 1 American killed during this period) knew what would happen. Afghan forces were not built to work standalone without foreign airstrikes, special forces, and service technicians.

They’re surprised that when they weren’t there to bride and force western values and feminism on people that hates both, that they would just return to their own values? That they wouldn’t defend foreign beliefs and values they hated?

Our leaders aren’t this stupid. It’s just the lie they feel they have to tell us. Otherwise we might start questioning why we believe in this self-destructive values as well.

As Sundance regularly reminds us, leftists have to pretend not to know things. Their worldview depends on it.

Anyone who had been over there since 2010 knew it would collapse in days.

This came as no surprise to anyone who actually spent time as boots on the ground.

They clearly need to hire a racist as an advisor. Someone to say "Maybe we shouldn't trust the inbred pederasts to stand firm as they cover our retreat?"

Nobody who read the stories those guys wrote online about gay thursday, constant weed smoking, utter stupidity and corruption of the ANA and ANP surprised anyone.
