#1 The denial sounds a bit too lawyerly for my taste.

#2 'Not a great day for America's service dogs': US military abandoned dozens of dogs alongside planes, Chinooks and Humvees worth BILLIONS in scramble to leave Kabul

#3 Lying cocksuckers gonna lie. Are Americans supposed to thank them for opening the cages before abandoning the working dogs to islamic phobias? See 30 seconds into video.

Chaos, stray dogs and barbed wire hung by desperate people's clothes.

#4 Photos showing dogs in cages did not depict "dogs under the care of the U.S. military,"

Note the lawyerly defense. They retroactively defined them as not under the care of the US military - presto, the problem is fixed! This is why you hire expensive lawyers.

#5 Classic lawyerly denial by the ⭔. Just disassociate from your dereliction and say 'Rubbish! No such thing.' Screwing the soldier repeatedly is bound to bring a reckoning one day.

They say there will be a great roundup and cowboys like doggies will stand.

#6 Possible reasoning:

1. Putting dogs on planes, and not people, bad optics.
2. Flying plane loads of hajjis to another mooslim land and not being able to land, offload, or transfer dogs, bad optics.
3. Having haggis refuse evacuation flight because of barking dogs, bad optics.
4. Fotos of dogs were left behind in cages, bad optics, denial required.
5. 90% of the dogs that wanted to get out, got out.
6. Rabies vaccination records were lost or unavailable.
7. Chinese Embassy volunteered to coordinate successful canine repatriation, or something.

#7 "The U.S. priority mission was the evacuation of U.S. citizens, SIV [participants in a special visa program] and vulnerable Afghans," Pahon says.

"...And we couldn't even get THAT right..."

#12 Germany shipped out 22,000 liters of beer from Afghanistan. Once again, critics might say the beer doesn’t displace people. But beer does displace priceless heirlooms of Afghan families who might prefer that they can bring out some items for their families, rather than the easily replaceable German beer.

That story is from early June. You know, back when The Pentagon and Administration were saying its all A.O.K.

Bagram was an early July move.

Problem here is, Pentagon doesn't seem to know, and nobody seems to believe anything The Woke Forces say.

Dogs or no dogs, their credibility...
is boned.

#13 By this logic: "He's not refusing the vaccine. He just hasn't gotten around to getting it yet..."
