That is why I wasn't surprised the way the Taliban was allowed to take over the way they did. Same thing that happened everywhere during Arab Spring. Same people in this administration. Obama made a joke of American lives given in Iraq and Biden Afghanistan. I served in Iraq twice. I took it personally at the time.

As well you should, John. I pre-date your service. Late 60’s Nam. Tonkin Gulf Yaghtclub. Thank you for not shrinking back. Administration back then gave many groundpounders reason to hate McNamara and the entire fraudulent process.
But don’t get caught in bitterness...for your own sake. Righteous indignation, yup. Unforgivness, not so much. Stay safe and prepare.
Thank you so much for your service.~~~ especially this weekend, when I look on the vast and beautiful military cemeteries around the world, representing lives given for what we have believed in and trusted, decades proud family loyalties and honor. ~~~Now, so much gone up in smoke due to the sorry and tawdry…..then I think of HC in her green suit, waving her hands and saying, “What difference does it make?!!” After those tragic, horrific hours in Libya ….words fail.~~~Our leaders, what a sorry sickening list of worthless collectors of huge paychecks, by the way, our money…..may they be exposed and assigned the justice they so richly deserve….amen and amen
That would be deeply emotional. What a special special event to be there, to think of the lives represented by those rows of markers, marriages, and children never met….all those who said “I’m the one to do this”…..what courage, what generosity and timely spirit…..~~~ And these days? Gotta pick a fight with the clerk, pull her hair, because my tator tots were cold God help us America !
