      I think most have no problem pulling out of there. It how it is being handled is the problem. But those that can support the way we are doing this are blind to how the world powers see this. It is also wrong and dangerous. Im betting we end up with 12-15k troops over there soon with over 25 dead US civilians. Dont even want to think of the men/women that guided and translated for our troops

        Footage which appears to have been taken from a C-17 military plane leaving Kabul shows a man's legs protruding from the wheel arch and failing against the side of the plane as it cuts through the air.

          You know, I thought this too. But I was listening to Jocko, and he said most likely what will happen, those people will just take the tools and training we gave them, and go work for the Taliban now. Said its very common. He said basically, people see Americans as just the next group of people trying to police their land, and they know they just have to wait it out, and it will be fine.

          I feel for the girls and women there who got to see a glimpse of freedom and hope. All of that is gone now.

            This is their second rodeo. They were shooting at our Blackhawks with Stinger missiles back in the early 2000s that we gave them to fight the Russians with in the 80s. Remember Rambo III? That was the Taliban.

              They will be fine, its the children that will become the issue. Not all but many.

                    I don't think anyone that has Afghan blood running through their veins needed to be on planes headed for the United States whether inside or on the outside of it. Sorry they fell off the plane but glad there's a few less over here.

                    I don't like people from 3rd world countries being over here. Especially potential enemies. But that's just my personal opinion.

                      Where is the WHM&F(white, heterosexual, male and female) flag? I'm sure they need to be recognized for their contribution to society. Since about 99.99% of our society was built by them! I kid of course (kinda).
                      We should stop with all the diversity and inclusion and just be a nation of people who care about the good of the commonwealth as one. No one needs to be recognized individually or as a group for their contributions...aside from those who actually gave life and limb to ensure our freedoms. Those are the ones who truly earned recognition and our nations flag represents them! Let's fly that flag with honor and respect and stop tarnishing it with these ridiculous attempts at making people "feel" good with their "flag of many colors" and "inclusion". Afterall, what did they contribute that the rest of us did not? Does the nations flag not represent us all? Are they somehow left out of it because it doesn't have enough colors in it?
