re: #291 Belafon

We know they will. Biden knows they will. Maybe we should be like Biden on this and say we had to do what we had to do and leave it at that.

The rapid implosion of the Afghanistan military has sort of been blowing some holes in the recently established Republican narrative of 300,000 brave Afghani soldiers who would totally be able to hold their own against the Taliban but for lack of US air support. The biggest mistake during the withdrawal appears to have been not blowing up all the bridges and highways to block the army’s retreat.
