Yeah but the way Biden chose just doesn’t make logical sense . Atleast if the opposite happened he could pin the shyt on Trump. He can’t pin the way he did it on anyone but himself
That’s how drawdowns/base closings work. You get non-essentials personnel out. Everyone else gets broken down into groups that leave in waves. Otherwise you’re stuck.
I think you’re under the impression that there are a few hundred personnel on ground holding their own. There are enough soldiers, marines, aircraft on station/ready to go. This isn’t including all the other countries’ service members, all still armed. Everyone is aware that IS was interested but suicide bombers are most terrifying in crowds because you don’t see them coming.
What’s happening now was always going to happen and it’s as under control as you could ever see, considering the circumstances and the stupid ass “deal” made last year. This is the only balance between protecting personnel and getting people. If the Taliban wants this to run smoothly they need to get back to killing isis-k.
