$21 billion that the Americans left for the Taliban
I doubt it was that much, or anywhere near. Most of the value would have been in the relatively small number of aircraft, the vast majority of which fled to neighboring countries like Uzbekistan. And also, what equipment was left was given to the Afghan Army, which chose not to fight because they simply didn't believe in the cause they were asked to fight for (equal rights for women).
Okay so I looked it up: the TOTAL spent on equipment (and transport) for Afghanistan since 2001 = $18 billion. However, this does not mean there was $18 billion of shit lying around in 2021 for the Taliban to take. First, we'd have to eliminate what was spent on transportation, which isn't broken out. Second, obviously a large portion of the remainder would have broken down or worn out or gotten lost over the course of 20 years, and a significant amount would have been spent on maintenance and repairs. The US counted 73 aircraft left behind that were totally gutted and inoperable before the US left. What was operable almost all took off and flew to neighboring countries. The only evidence I've seen of anything flying that got left behind was a few helicopters.
Anyway the more accurate number looks like $7 billion: https://nypost.com/2022/08/16/more-than-7b-in-us-military-equipment-seized-by-taliban-pentagon-watchdog/
after they got their asses kicked by goatherds
So this is where you are just lying. Americans never "got their asses kicked" by the Taliban, and of course the Taliban were not "goatherds" regardless, just like the NVA were not "rice farmers". The United States clearly and decisively won all combat as a rule in Afghanistan.
You can say the US lost the war because of a failure of political will, but you cannot say we got our "asses kicked". That's just factually untrue. So the question is, why do you feel the need to lie? The answer is: to salt the wound. And the question is why do you need to salt the wound? The answer is: because you have a serious problem with butthurt over the United States that clouds your ability to use logic and reason. It's like TDS but over America.
