The 2500 solidiers left according to the Doha accords in 2020 were never meant to hold anything, nor to conquer anything. The deal was for all US troops to leave by may of this year and neither side would attack one another., The remaining soldiers were only there to organize the evac.Those idiots in the White House failed to understand a few things. First, there's a huge difference between the verbs could and would. Second, the most motivated fighters in the world throughout history have been fighting for a) religion or b) an outsider occupying their homeland. In this case, the Taliban had both. And lest anyone get the wrong impression with what I'm about to say, I'm 100% opposed to the Taliban but let's give the Devil his due and the Taliban the respect that they've quite frankly earned. They've proven to be tough, determined fighters willing to fight for however long that it takes to win. They seem to be capable of learning and adapting quickly as needed. Even when the odds appear to be against them, they keep going, and they've only been doing this since the time of Alexander the Great. What made these idiots in the White House think that they could just half a$$ a plan against a group with a 2500 YEAR history of kicking invaders' tails? That's the very height of hubris and incompetence. What I really want to know is did Biden & Co follow the advice they got from the military or did they just make this s#1+sh0w up as they went along?
Some thoughts by the military were to break the agreement and wait for winter to leave, when it was believed the fighting season takes a pause {even though it had not last year).
