One would have thought we might have learned our **** lesson about this **** in Vietnam. How soon they forget...and that means the **** up American people who supported these **** "wars against terror" all along. Believing this "fighting for our freedom" ****. This was a **** political war for 20 years. The only reason it wasn't over in 10 years like Vietnam, or even less, is because the ignorant **** American electorate didn't rise up in anger like we did in the late 1960's and force an end to it. Want to blame somebody for this? Put it where it belongs...where it always belongs...put it on the American people. Nah..."support our troops" is what we heard for 20 **** years. What we heard in 1970 at Kent State was "support our troops...bring 'em home." And they shot us up for it.Pengwin » 06 Sep 2021, 10:40 am » wrote: ↑They should have left when it was obvious they needed to go - months ago.Taipan » 06 Sep 2021, 9:49 am » wrote: ↑ The Taliban are hunting the Americans who are in hiding this morning in Kabul.
There's only so much we can do to protect the stupid from themselves...
The only mistake Joe made was buying the US intelligence services information that the Afghan Army could hold off the Taliban long enough for us to get all our people out safely. As graft laden and corrupt as the government and military of the Republic of Vietnam was...the ARVN managed to hold off the NVA for two **** years. And the Afghans couldn't manage two weeks? Anybody who wants to blame Joe for any of this is just spewing political loose ****.
What the **** was Joe supposed to do? Sit back and say..."OK, let's give 'em another 10 years to straighten this out. Y'know 20 years, 30 years, what's the big ****' deal? It's just another couple thousand of our people with their legs blown off by IED's."
**** that...and once again, thanks Joe for having the stones to do this. What happened in Vietnam after the fall of Saigon in 1975, makes the **** going down in Afghanistan right now look like a stroll down the beach. UN estimates suggest 400,000 Vietnamese boat people died at sea between 1975 and 1985. Plus how many in the communist purges? One can only guess.
