Kabul Airport Under Terror Attack, Reported Suicide Bombing
Chaos and Confusion at the Kabul Airport as the 82nd Airborne Begins Evacuation Ahead of Schedule.
I have no confidence that current U.S. leadership can deal with this kind of situation. I am concerned U.S. response will be to skedaddle as quickly and cowardly as possible. Not the troops. The leadership. We have given up the initiative to the enemy and the enemy knows it. Our boneheads in charge will claim the skedaddle is glorious victory.
I pray for our brave men and women on the ground.

“Military continues to retrograde and depart airport. Almost a certainty that Americans will be left behind. They will have to be extracted after-the-fact through either Taliban negotiation or unconventional means.” https://t.co/P4lofL3ohC pic.twitter.com/EixG7fVMT5

What a disgrace our jerkoff president and military leaders are. We are the most powerful country in the world being managed by complete idiots.
