| #9 Americans are not noted, of recent, for their long memories. Maybe we've resigned ourselves that what is truth today may very well be not-truth tomorrow. |

| #8 Ref #6: Yes, the closing of Bagram was a monumental error. We could have STILL had a defensible outpost there. |

| #5 Removing combat troops before civilians was back assward. Not having a screening force is the type of military savvy of someone who thinks The Duke of Wellington cooked a mean beef tenderloin. That is, if your concern was the evacuation of friendlies. But OK, own it then, handing over acres of working equipment, arms, NVGs, and stores of cash was absolutely The Plan. A Bravo Job Well Done deserving of war trophies. |

| #4 Miley studied military history at West Point. Most grads would have tried to apply Bastogne. Miley applied Sailor’s Creek from Lee’s side. Remember when they started loading everyone randomly without vetting because the empty seats were embarrassing the WH? The majority of the responsibility for this debacle lies among the political hacks that were directing Biden at the time. Miley and his hench people should have been cashiered but the Obamaites were the instigators. |
