Doesn’t everybody see the real objective – If you make all our noble efforts to fight against evil being turned to sh*t, who would support us, for that matter who would want to support that within our own military. They want to make it seem futile to even join the effort. Watch how recruiting will be greatly reduced. People, we have to stand up against the real evil that is being foisted upon us. Let’s rally against it! I want to be in that crowd depicted in this single frame.

Recruiting can turn to those newly arrived ‘military age’ males, with a promise of citizenship. And no, they won’t hesitate to ‘follow orders’.

Who do I see about getting back the time I spent in Afghanistan and Iraq? I was proud to serve my country but to have that time pissed away by our leaders chaps my ass. Sorry for venting.
To Petey & Sgtcpt…..Viet Nam vet here with the very same sentiments. And those same said sentiments, according to Homeland Security’s latest “evaluation” makes us and most all other vets “potential domestic terrorists” who need monitoring if not “containment” along with all those who do not wish to take the jab.
It makes me wonder with all the intentional provocation if they don’t actually WANT an uprising and use it as an excuse to try and declare martial law/suspension of the Constitution. The biggest problem with their “logic” is that once the ball starts rolling (SHTF) they are under the delusion that they”ll be able to ‘control’ it. Nothing could be further from the truth……I fully believe that the sentiment will spread like a wildfire driven by a hurricane.
God……please help us.

Pamela
My Dad, God Bless Him, Spent back-to-back tours in Nam.
In ’68, he and a few others confabbed with a few NVA officers.
It did not end well for them. The outcome was the surrender of NV. They told Johnson and he decided to not run again. Let the war go on until Nixon tool over. I guess he didn’t want a recession on his watch.
I have a friend in Atlanta and I asked him how he was voting. He told me he is voting Democrat and always will. I thought he was smarter than that, but I guess not.
This drives home the fact to everybody that the crew in DC has no clue what they are doing, whether his “handlers” advised him or not and I think people will remember simply because it’s such an irresponsible act.
It ain’t Saigon, though some want it to be. A-stan hasn’t been in the news for months, if not years, and it won’t be another Carter period of the Commies going wild. Shih has lots of troubles of his own and his neighbors (Inja, Oz, Japan, the Philippines, Nationalist China) have all been rearming against something like this.
What may happen is that all of the anger over inflation, CRT, BLM, illegals, inflation, etc., begins to crystallize over this as proof the whole crowd has got to go.
There are probably 535 lamp posts and interstate overpasses in the Washington DC area to hang the primary buzzard bait from, but it might be necessary to look for suburban trees, bridges, and such to handle all the bureaucrats!
For entirely different reasons, it hits me the same way as Bill Mauldin’s crying Lincoln Memorial at the assassination of John F. Kennedy or his cartoon of the graves at Arlington saying “Ike’s here. Pass it on.”
That scenario may not be far off in happening. Los Angeles saw Antifa/BLM assholes forced into retreat from anti-mask mandate demonstrators.
Biden-Harris ordered the following to occur in Afghanistan;
US Citizens in Afghanistan to run and hide, because we’re not gonna get you out.
US flags at Embassy to be destroyed.
Embassy evacuated by helicopter.
Blinken said this wasn’t like Saigon, and he’s right. It’s fucking Tehran.
Pelosi and the rest of those mouth-breathing inbred fuckers are commending Biden harris over Afghanistan.
January 6th wasn’t an insurrection. But one is coming…
Americans are tired of the DNC/PLD and Antifa/BLM. These assholes sowed hatred and distrust and violence. Time for them to reap what they’ve sown, seven times over…
The equipment isn’t Soviet. It’s complex and hard to keep running. Most of it will be broken within a year and they’ll be back to Toyota pickup trucks with 50s on the back instead of Russian DShKs.
You can lay the recent delivery of tonnes of military weapons and other equipment squarely on them, equipment that the Afghan army was well trained in operating…fakepres armed the Taliban, the same way ‘bama armed ISIS, through an ‘army’ they knew would lay down their arms (carefully so as not to scratch them) rather than see their families killed in front of them by soulless terrorists.
Meanwhile, china and iran are scrambling to take over, just as planned…
Mike Jason retired in 2019 as a U.S. Army colonel, after 24 years on active duty. He commanded combat units in Germany, Kosovo, Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan
The good colonel is a military hero and a fine soldier, pursuing an ever changing mission ordered by inept bureaucrats that never had a coherent one to order to begin with and in any case was fatally flawed from the beginning.
All of the details and blame and soul-searching are for naught. We had no damn business putting our soldiers on the ground in that shithole and the other ancillary shitholes.
Our mission should never have been to try to save, educate, provide for or train those people or to try to nation-build or teach them how to build infrastructure or provide for their own defense. We should never have set boots on the ground, period.
Our mission was or should have been retribution and defense of the United States of America. Those objectives could have been accomplished from the air and sea. It really is/was that simple.
Instead, here we go again. We will take the blame and the hate from the entire world for spending 20 years accomplishing nothing but sacrificing ourselves for people and objectives that could have been accomplished in one year or less.
August 16, 2021 at 12:30 pm
Kafiroon
Yup.
Reading that WaPo news sounds just like a whole lot of republicans and others here. Only here most have been paid and are only looking to score more graft (How does everyone get very rich in Congress?) or more ruling power. Besides our “media” constantly cheerleading or demanding we do things that destroy us. Note: no voter ID, wear masks-distancing-lock downs-no church services-etc. But social protests are good and burn it down/lock them up if they disagree.
The Army has gone back to the tribes whence they came. This will be the newest round of the old feuds, so I wonder how much of all the equipment will end up in the the Taliban hands.
Now we see the thinking behind Premier Cho Bai-Dins’ “eviction moratorium” is both selfish and defensive. Not gonna work, Joe, back to arts and crafts until the boys have another speech for you to read.
And there’s applesauce for snack today!
Until we adopt an alternative to majoritarian politics, such as going from what we have to Approval Voting, we’re stuck with a two party system, and sadly there is no other option for sane Democrats to run to at this time that is not the Hated GOP. The Republicans, thanks to their membership in the UniParty, can’t attract them. If the Republicans kick out the Elitists in favor of the Populist refugees from the Democratic party (that shows nothing but disdain for them) that will help, but it will also contaminate the GOP with the same Give Me More disease the Democrats have built their entire party on.
I believe the majority of the country has declared themselves Independent, but that is not a Party and they have to settle for the scraps offered up by the Majors.
Someday this may all settle out, but in the meantime I’m watching with anticipation while the Chinese, Russians, Pakistanis, and Iranians rip each other and themselves to bits in the Graveyard of Empires we just slipped out of.
Biden definitely is taking much blame in Afghanistan, and he practiced with his vote of no funds to support the South Vietnamese, when the N.V. were poised to take over.
It seems that the US has a record of betraying its allies.
No matter who the President is, neither he, nor his administration is really in control.
It`s Bankers who run the world, except maybe in the place where Empires go to die.
Now that you brought it up, Biden led the voting bloc in the Senate in 1975 that prevented the U.S. from re-supplying and supporting the government of the Republic of Vietnam, causing it to be overrun and the resulting dominoes of Cambodia and Laos to fall.
That same bloc also denied government assistance to Vietnamese refugees that made it to our shores!
Sellout is nothing new to Joe Biden… but this time I think he has sold US out to the NWO!
“Conservatives” opining that Biden should be impeached or in some way removed over losing Afghanistan might think twice. It’s clear that 1. he had nothing to do with this, as he is dement and has nothing to do with anything. His Puppet Masters pulled his strings. 2. Putting #2 Puppet Cackles “in charge” as pretend POTUS will not change anything either, as her Puppet Masters are also pulling all her strings. The Junta is in itself utterly lawless, so the “hierarchy” we peasants are allowed to see can be only for show, and shuffling these clowns up or down the fraudster totem pole should elicit nothing but yawns.
Boeing stock price October 2001: $33. Now $231. Lockheed Martin stock price October 2001: $43…Now: $357. Christ almighty I feel rotten for the lost sons and daughters in this theater of war, worse for their heirs and survivors. We’ve been had and then some for 20 years. Pray for those lost. Pray for their families. This can’t be a good time for any of the latter. Ike was right and there is no denying his warning so long ago. If only current leadership would turn tail, get on that helo and let good governance return. If a frog had wings…Kurt S has an interesting editorial today in Townhall.
This mess seems to be morphing into today’s version of the Iran Hostage situation. It looks like the terrorists have seized enough of the airport to cause us to cancel flights out and our fine ‘leadership’ is negotiating with the terrorists to get our folk out. Meanwhile we seem tp have Americans sheltering in place (hiding while our inept government and military dither and negotiate).
What’s to worry? Joe Biden is a well meaning person. The Taliban are mostly peaceful and peace is a major part of their religion.
Yes. That is obvious sarcasm. We all can make much more.
CNN female reporter outside US Embassy in Kabul reporting on Taliban takeover said ‘They are just chanting Death to America, but they seem friendly at the same time. It is utterly bizarre.’ – The old you can’t make this stuff up stuff.
Pelosi said Biden-Harris should be commended for their actions concerning Afghanistan, and is being shredded for that. And Jen Psaki is not currently taking questions, putting a temporary end to redhead jokes.
Xiden Biden said that the ANA had 300,000 well (?) trained troops to fight against 70,000 Taliban fighters and there was no way that the Taliban would win and that there would be not be a Saigon moment in Kabul.
There are around 31 million Afghan resident. 42 %Pashtun, 27% Tajik, 5 tribes below 9%, and 4% unspecified.
They are 99% plus Muslim. Most all follow Sharia.
By Sharia that made it 31 million Army of Islam members against whatever forces were there. The 300,000 Afghan troops were part of the 31 million plus Muslims.
So it has been. So it shall be in the future.
Vietnam had a similar situation where the Vietnamese have fought foreigners for hundreds of years.
Much of both opposition melted when directly confronted by their own.
Islam has been expanded by Afghanistan and the assaults upon the Middle East and North Africa.
By plan.
That is an over simplification I made.
But do not go to war where we are not wanted.
Our welcome in Afghanistan was over in 3 months. Bin Laden either needed to be caught or killed, or we should have left after 3 months there. I actually wanted a 2 month limit. I know how the Afghans act after centuries of acting the same way for centuries. Nation building was a declaration of war in and of itself. The reasons are many.
A lot of posts on the helicopter evac going on in Kabul. One of my more observant sources noticed that the tail number on the Chinook is the same as the helo that took diplomats off the roof in Saigon!
To me, the cost is not in dollars, it was won…and then the professional naysayers and politicians took over.. A PLAGUE on them…
The true cost is in the blood of our soldiers—-those sons, those daughters, the fathers and wives that did come back—-the tears of those that cried for them

Up early as it’s hard to keep pace with Deep State fuckups-if it even is a fuckup. At this point, I’m sure they see it as a win against America.
This would be for the 16th though right?
You are always thinking tomorrow’s thoughts today, must be hard to keep track.
I’m sure, too. Anyone who sees what the criminal Democrats are really up to is sure.
Too true. I’m sick of hearing “If only they realized what they’re doing” when it’s obviously going exactly on plan.
How do I get an 8×10 glossy for framing ?
pull off the image and print! 🙂
Beyond my tech. But I know a guy.
Why does today’s toon remind me of that helicopter scene from Scarface where Omar the Rat gets his last ride?
Lotsa helicopters and lotsa rats in D.C. …

Damn. Powerful image right there.
America as we have known it is over. Unless…
Amerika is over. America rises.
Exactly.
Yes sir Mr. Muir that would be the unless…
Better rise soon, insurmountable harm being done.
Not enough people on that ladder.
Where’s Kammie and Chuckie and Nancy and Adam and Jerry?
And isn’t there enough room it that chopper to take McConnell with them as well?
Chlamydia and Pelosi Galore are trying to grab a little of the credit. If that doesn’t say tone deaf, I don’t know what does.

Excellent toon.
Wonder what the hell all those idiot Biden voters who voted against Trump cuz of mean tweets are thinking now?
Oh wait, they don’t think. They’re emotional idiots.
Such a shit show.
And you know damn well the Russians, Chinese, and Iranians are watching and laughing at Biden’s feckless inaction.
They’re thinking, “Oh, yay, we’re at peace again!”
Most of them play zero moves ahead.
I have a friend in Atlanta and I asked him how he was voting. He told me he is voting Democrat and always will. I thought he was smarter than that, but I guess not.

If so, some good may yet come of this mess.
No need to be sorry – been saying the same for +- 50 years.
2.5 years to agree on the shape of the table for Peace Talks.
Just for starters.
There are probably 535 lamp posts and interstate overpasses in the Washington DC area to hang the primary buzzard bait from, but it might be necessary to look for suburban trees, bridges, and such to handle all the bureaucrats!
pretty sure the WW2 memorial could handle a few dozen socialists.
And all those cherry trees we got from Japan!

Did we just spend two decades, thousands of good young lives and trillions of dollars to train and equip the new taliban?
Can’t lay all of that on the Dims.
The equipment isn’t Soviet. It’s complex and hard to keep running. Most of it will be broken within a year and they’ll be back to Toyota pickup trucks with 50s on the back instead of Russian DShKs.

The Army has gone back to the tribes whence they came. This will be the newest round of the old feuds, so I wonder how much of all the equipment will end up in the the Taliban hands.
Just keep on mind, that when Ol’ Slow Joe swore to “… preserve, protect, and defend…”, he only swore to do so to the best of his ability.
And I think, by now, pretty much everyone knows the limit of his ability.
THAT’S AFFRIM
I want to comment so badly, but I am just too disgusted for words.
I have to quit thinking about it because it makes my stomach hurt.
Whatever the Taliban do to Afghanistan will be small potatoes compared to what the Democrats did to America on Nov. 3.
Unfortunately, the Deep State is prepared to fight conservatives far more violently than they ever fought the Taliban.
S’truth! https://www.2ampatriot.com/ Deep State trying to use the Patriot Act against those they deem “Domestic Terrorists…US!”

China told Cho Xiden to get out of Afghanistan so that they can move in and take all of its mineral resources. So he did. This isn’t complicated.
Yup, I truly expect to see China raising their flag up the pole at our old embassy in Afghanistan within a week or two.
