f***ing insane, this admin is the worst in my lifetime, full stop. I almost feel that they intentionally want to destroy American and make us a third-world shithole. F*** them all.
 
Service dogs, still caged that the airport.

Why would they have citizens on them? They would have had troops and equipment on them. It's not that hard to work out.

I'm highly skeptical of that one. It could be a staged photo. I cannot see servicemen and women leaving their companions behind. The bonds are too strong.
 
Well, retreats arent easy on the eyes. What were you guys expecting? From the reactions here, it seems like you wanted to reinvade Afghanistan to retreat. You seem to forget even Trumps plan relies on ANA to be a standing army.... it wasnt for 20 years the allies were wrong in thinking they were building an army.
 
Callsign Moose94 was officially the last US military aircraft out of Kabul. The skies over Afghanistan are void of aircraft & the Notice to airmen has officially been issued. We got the last few on our manifest delivered safely not sure of the other crews but nationals & citizens are still left behind in this failed mission.

If that is a jab at my Country, I will say, the destabilization of that part of the world is really iffy now. I can see an uprising in Pakistan (they have nukes in case you didn't know), Gee, we will see...
 
It's reality... sadly more than a jab. Pakistans nukes is guarded by your people, in case you didnt know... that "domino effect" crap has been sold to you and teh world since the 50's. It was used as a justification for over staying in Vietnam and now it's being used in Afghanistan. It's a boogey man used to justify to continue the war. So again what did you guys expect your government to do when ANA collapsed? Reinvade?
 
Not sure what you are trying to say.
The chap in your link that said no us citizens were taken in the last few aircraft out. And I took your comment to say you were quite angry about it. I was just saying that those aircraft would have been reserved for the troops pulling out and perhaps some of the last equipment with them. Not hard to work out wasn't a jab at you, more a comment to the chap in your link.

I’d like to shoot the CO who told our guys to leave their dogs behind!
 
Missiles/Rocket attacks. Cwis/Cram & Lasers intercepted all. Passengers entering gates & planes landing & taking off continues uninterpreted.

One of the missiles fired that morning fell on the territory of the Kabul airport, breaking through an air defense system acording to Al Jazeera

Here is what they used - self-made MLRS, ISIS took the responsibility.

That last man out was Maj. Gen. Chris Donahue, commander of the U.S. Army 82nd Airborne Division & his last message over coms was "flush the force". A day early. Perimeter security [taliban] was starting to close in. With the last 5 C-17s on the runway, ready for take off, the Americans destroyed the missile defense systems with thermite bombs & took off without missile defense.

OK, I'm not sure where you find the Paki nukes guarded by us, the US, but yeah, we not gonna reinvade ole Afghanistan. Other than that, Vietnam seems to be a reoccurring theme in your mantra. We left long ago and we are friends now, at least economic friends.

On Pakistani nukes, OK that might have been the Russian one on the cooperation in guarding the nukes.

I've hardly used Vietnam as an example. Nevertheless, I used it not because of the country, but because the US keeps using the same Mantra. Domino theory has been over used since the Cold War.

The Pakistan Military and security apparatus is not the Ana, the fact that people bring up "oh watch Pakistan..." is just ridiculous.
