Afghan government didn’t think US would actually leave, report finds

Well when you tell your partner repeatedly you are leaving for a decade, then don’t…sorry not sorry, I could see why they thought we’d reconsider. But when you’ve drawn down to just BAF and rolled over or transferred all your FOBs and COPs, it should occur to anyone that it’s indeed a wrap. Certainly shouldn’t have been a total route among the ANSF. It should have actually freed up the Afghans to break shit and kill people who need killin’ with out outside interference from their ally.

The Phillipines figured that out the hard way with Anderson and Subic Bay with the leasing skullduggery.

That's probably true...totally unprepared

They found out the hard way of being careful of what you ask for because you may get it.

I feel pain for the children who are growing up there with no hope of ever living in anything but below the poverty line. They can't help their parents didnt/don't care about their lives and we'll being.

I have no time for the adults, both men and women, who didn't give a shit enough to keep the freedom their family, friends, and our troops gave them.
