  4. Until I'm here in country of srilanka 🇱🇰 I born to country of srilanka this time, no one come and getting me to there for USA ,why you all sending for country war for them ,until they not working for liberty of USA ,who are all ? I'm the build the state of America 🇺🇸 you all are out country's war business of lady liberty not business of out country's, don't waste ti my time or day's right now give me the reply to me

  5. For US Military Intelligence (and I know some say that's an oxymoron) to not envisage an att*ck on the day of withdrawal is astonishing. Their last chance to get at their enemy and inflict losses: of course it was foreseeable & predictable to anyone, let alone the "experts".

  6. Trump had a peaceful, organized withdrawal worked out between the Afghan government and Taliban. It was to happen at the end of Feb. 2021. The expectation was Trump would be reelected. Unfortunately, Joe Biden got elected, and he decided he was going to change the deal and move the withdrawal date to a "symbolic" Sept. 11th so he could take undue credit and earn political points. The Taliban viewed the withdrawal date change as the U.S. going back on the agreement, which was actually the case, and they decided they weren't going to wait any longer to take control of the country. Joe's decision is why there was a chaotic and rushed withdrawal, why American soldiers were killed, and why billions of dollars in military equipment were left behind.

  8. This is the most incompetent General that I have ever witnessed. He might have been a great soldier in the past, but at the end of his career he made so many blunders it's a shame to say anything confident about his decision-making at the end of his career. Many died in Afghanistan but the worst death was the last I3 soldier who died at the end of the withdrawal process. It was shameful and this General was part of the decision-making process which was accomplished by this General and all those connected to this General to include all his Highest Commanders that were part of this process! It saddens me, even to have to say this!

  11. Jared Moskowitz has multiple college degrees including one as a Jurist Doctorate. I’m sure he had to have taken public speaking at some point in college. Every other word out of his mouth is “uh”. He sounds ridiculous.
