They can have a good ole time ruling over the rubble pile. Sunk cost fallacy: the best time to leave was 15 years ago and the second best time is right now. It ain’t called the graveyard of empires for nothing, but the real joke is that all the powerful armies stack the rocks on top of their own heads! Despite spending >$2T and countless lives, Afg sucks nearly as much as the day we arrived and I for one say good riddance. Time to spend our blood and treasure more wisely elsewhere. It’s not somehow more patriotic to want to continue losing every single day, year after year, decade after decade. "Retreat, hell! We're not retreating, we're just advancing in a different direction." - General Oliver Smith, battle of Chosin Reservoir

Blow it up as the last helicopter flies clear Start planning the B-2 round the world strike now Enjoy your rubble… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'll enjoy the schadenfreude. I'd feel a little sympathy if the AF had left the bonus at pre-COVID terms. But they didn't. They took the risk that COVID would affect the airlines longer, and offered a bonus with shit terms with less money/longer minimum commitments. They gambled and lost. So to hell with a big AF that makes it pretty clear they do not appreciate their rated force.

Whoah, it’s Delta Air Lines; they’re very particular.

The afghanis deserve to live under the Taliban. 20 yrs of assistance from a superpower and they still can’t stand. F em

Because the inflation would immediately destroy us. And your next post just shows how much of a sheep you are

Hey PA, you misspelled “Delta Airlines”.

Change the narrative a little and it still fits what’s happening in today’s USAF.

Because in their minds, Trump is worse than a terrorists. These are the types of people that are trying to steer our nation...

Get our people out and stop with these stupid ass ROE. These Taliban fucks want to come out and conquer territory and threaten Americans, I hope we kill a few thousand of them via PGM as our parting gift.

TIPS or just good ole fashion stonks…S&P 500 up almost 21% YTD should cover up any inflation concerns with a large pile of dollar bills.

Dude I understand this experience makes you jaded and bitter, but I have good friends who are Afghan officers, still fighting, and they will likely be executed in the next 2-3 months. Don't generalize them. Noone went to Afghanistan for 3-4 months and suddenly understands their culture and politics.

I think the last thing we got (half) right was Korea. In conflicts since then the MIC was directing the battle. Some politicians made a lot of money on the blood of our brothers.

How did he feel about going to Iraq for "WMDs"?

No, at some point the population needs to take responsibility. A whole generation has been raised under our protection, 20 years to learn to fight and govern themselves. F-ck them. They’ll get used to Taliban rule….again.

Taliban takes Kunduz and moving in on Herat and Lashkar Gah. Well it looks like we've finally turned that corner all those generals have been talking about over the last two decades...

Did someone call for a clown?

How long before Kabul falls and resembles something like this… https://af.usembassy.gov/security-alert-u-s-embassy-kabul-afghanistan-august-7-2021/?fbclid=IwAR1sWr5guHDeA--Qaf--io-khSgxyvoeK_vznYxrPsnaKvczHkXJaFEGnUI

In just a couple days we are going to see endless footage of an American embassy overrun by militant terrorists. Just about the worst optics we can have on the international stage.
