Some in the military are speaking out, blaming Biden. Anonymously , of course.

Trumpers have been calling for Gen. Milley to resign. Probably him.

Nearly a half dozen U.S. officials (across the administration) tell Reuters that there is increasing frustration and even anger with the way Biden has handled the evacuation from Kabul, saying his White House wasted too much time in the months leading up to last week.


Officials say the military for weeks had been telling the White House that they were ready to do more, in terms of basing and flights from evacuating Afghans, but a decision didn't come until it was too late.


Officials tell Reuters that an address from Biden today, well after the Taliban military advances began, is far too late. They added that some of the defenses given by the White House, including NSA Sullivan earlier today, are baffling.

1. Of course Trump thumping troopers will be complaining.

It must be Biden's fault that they have lost a 21 year war.

3. Exactly. Dump could have planned it all out but he left it.

As if dump handling it would have been better.

2. If and when we find out WHO they are

Need to move them to a position of NO AUTHORITY! (they are QRUMPERS) and will continue to cause trouble!

4. It's hard to know who to believe when it comes to the military because so many are in bed with

the money-making people behind the scenes. They seem to usually like to keep conflicts going as long as they can keep squeezing billions out of the Congress. There's a reason DC is infected with more lobbyists than Covid.

6. good point...war is money

and it is so privatized now, plus...got to sell those bombs somehow.

5. The real question should be; did the military, on the ground not see this coming

or did they not have contingency plans?
