Retired Gen. Mark Milley did not hold back in his criticisms of Donald Trump's handling of the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan.

BREAKING NEWS: If Trump talks about it, Trump lies about it.

Every time.

It's bad now. Just imagine how bad it can get if he has the power vested in the office of POTUS. NOTHING he can do or say can be trusted.

It shouldn’t come as a surprise surely?

The only thing which is surprising is that there are apparently people gullible enough to believe him.

Trump made the deal--the Doha agreement--to essentially turn over Afghanistan to the Taliban. US forces agreed to withdraw by the deadline in exchange for a few vague promises by the Taliban that didn't mean anything.

And withdrew so many troops that the few remaining couldn't adequately protect themselves so either they had to be pulled out or additional forces sent back. Intentionally endangered our troops just to screw Biden.

Remember when it was a world-shaking scandal that White House staffers removed the "W" keys from the keyboards?

Shameful, cowardly, exit from a country they had no business invading!

Par for the course!

America gets its sorry arse handed to them.

Again.

And again.

And Again!

Having a draft dodging coward as Commander in Chief helps!

We had very good reason to invade Afghanistan, we were attacked by a group being given sanctuary there.

Our mistake was in trying to make that shithole better for the Afghan People, the most American of failings.

We should have made Tora Bora a radioactive monument to the cowardice of bin Laden and left.

Bullshit!

YOU created the Taliban to fight the Commies!

Israel created Hamas, to fight Fatah!

Same results!

Oh, can you explain to me how you left Vietnam??

A country you are still killing people there with your Agent Orange!

STAY HIME!

SORT YOUR OWN PROBLEMS!

Leave the rest of us to our own devices!

At least you whet your arse handed to you!

How is the Sudan civil war going Saeed?

Ah yes, just stay home and mind your own business.

One of the world's largest humanitarian disasters is brewing nicely, fully funded by the UAE.

Look over there seems a common refrain these days

Oh and as far as I can tell, that tiny group you call your armed forces does not have much to brag about. You can't even defend yourselves, left Yemen with your tail between your legs in mere weeks. I would think that those who live in glass houses should refrain from throwing stones.

You might want sort your own problems and refrain from destabilizing your neighbors before criticizing those who save your bacon(pun intended )on a daily basis? Shame the youth of your country has no desire to defend the desolate stretch of sand you call home, too busy in clubs and pubs of London living that pious life that you espouse I guess


I'm not so sure the behavior of your Government leaves you much room to criticize others Saeed, your country engages in the very behavior you like to criticize. Maybe you should talk to your brother about that

And it must have taken a truly special kind of moron to think the Afghan army would continue to fight the Taliban only months before they would be taking over the government, their weapons, and their paychecks.

If our eye hadn’t been taken off the ball by Bush 2 and his score settling with saddam Afghanistan might have turned out differently.

History might argue otherwise, its long been known as where empires go to die. Might have learned from the British and Soviets. Why occupy? go kill the bad guys sure. I will say though, Iraq was pointless and the middle east was more secure with sadam in terms of muslim extremists. all that said i have too much west texas in me to act like i dont understand going to finish your dads fight.

They did when the fastest transportation was a horse and a ballista was a long-range strategic weapon.

You know, the middle east before Westerners came.

Funny, very, very funny. Coming from someone who's country's military ranks close to the lowest third for strength, said to the world's most powerful military that protects him. You just cannot make this stuff up.

Have you considered asking the Ruskies for protection instead? I know several board members here would approve of the change.

You bunch of totally useless lot are incapable of protecting your own country!

You have a choice, north or south borders!

Take your pick.

All bribes end in Washington DC. In the coffers of both parties!

You do know something about being totally incapable of defending your own country that is for sure. I can never remember, is it goats or camels that are your most advanced weapons of war?
