      That "God help me if I'm wrong, but no one's being killed" quote from the Stephanopolous interview didn't age well at all.

      Fvck. Can you leave at this point? I don't think you can...

          Kinda stuck his dick in the meat grinder, didn't he?

          And sadly, the only way to get all the Americans out, is going to be urban fighting, which is the most costly in terms of lives and human misery.

          What a clusterfuck...

              We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences.
              Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on.

                What’s weird to me is that I saw on the news here, hours before, that there was hard intel about an imminent threat near Kabul airport, which means they knew something was cooking but still were not able to prevent a catastrophe.

                      Here's the thing, it very well could have been the Taliban, it could have been the New Al Qaeda. Could have been ISIS. Could have been one of our own Afghan interpreters and loyalists that feels betrayed. Hell, it could have been the French or any other member of NATO...

                              he said it was a sad day, 12 killed, then went on to tout the number of people evacuated and the heroism of the troops. Honestly I'm not sure what they expected him to say, but he should have stuck to the facts of the incident, of which there are few right now. Apparently we are relying on the Taliban to screen people getting to the gates of the airport.

                              So the Taliban is the group preventing suicide bombers from getting to our troops. Let that sink in.

                                  If you think about it it means we knew damn good and well they were going to overrun the country. Otherwise we would never have had time to make such arrangements with them.

                                      TDS sufferers are still emoting about Jan 6. You have to give them more time to collect themselves before they emote about anything bad relating to Biden.

                                        "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
