That's what it looks like in the photos and videos. That's a LOT more work, and in my mind piss pore compared to really destroying them. I wonder if that was just pissed off guys doing it of there own accord rather than a order going out to start destroying things. To me a real lack of thermite, detcord and demo charges, what ever happened to the plane load of detcord and c4 they said they where sending to destroy things, let me guess, we just left it for them? Or simple burning shit... I saw a serious lack of the use of fire in the demil process. lol I would have to do a lot more demil to get that stuff of base IF they would even sell it to me.

Even without that, just open the oil and radiator drains and let the engines run.  Max five min per vehicle?


ETA:  This part aside, what happened in the US in the end of last year ("elections"), early this year ("insurrection in DC"), plus how Afghanistan was handled and the policies being implemented here ("vaccine mandates" and passports - disguised as "requirements for employment"), makes very clear, for anyone with more than two working neurons in the skull, what waits for us if things do not change radically.

I will tell you. Milley told me once, sir, it's cheaper to leave it behind than it is to take it out. I said, where do you come from? Do you mean you have a $10 million army tank and it's cheaper to leave it behind?

I don't care who it is, I guarantee you I can remove that army tank for a tiny, tiny fraction of what you're talking about. It gets onto a plane anywhere you want to take it out. And he said, he did tell me that, and I never forgot it.

I said, this guy has to be stupid because he said, sir, it's cheaper to leave it behind than it is to take it. And I said you got to be kidding. Now, if they did leave it behind, you have to blow it up. But I don't like that. I would have taken it for a tiny fraction.

I mean, these things cost tens of millions of dollars. Those Humvees that are all armor-plated, they're unbelievably expensive to leave them, as opposed to just sending planes and transporting them out. How could anybody make a statement that it's cheaper to leave it?

In the meantime the Taliban has it, and it's not going to be cheaper because they're going to be using it against us and a lot of other very good nations and people.

Another Massive Lie — Big Enough to Fill the Pacific
Claiming Major General Chris Donahue had the Kabul Airport gates open. This is a lie.

Dave Eubank, Lara Logan, Al Johnson, Brett Odom, the American Woman and her three children, COL Matt Rogers, Donahue, Kurilla, General Milley, our chats, others, I, and God, all are witness.

The only real special forces are ex special forces. Active duty are in training or bondage.

Army and Department of State are blaming each other. You are all Federal Government to us citizens.

The amazing Lara Logan just messaged me before I went live with this:

“ONE IMPORTANT POINT - OTR - there were many active guys who were working night & day to rescue people in between official missions. When they were ordered to stop, they kept going. When they [were] denied permission, they did it anyway. They risked everything. But they can never say for obvious reasons. If you can adjust this to call out the ones who did not, it will be more accurate and will not discredit guys who are true heroes.”

Weren't there a few MRAPs at the airport?  Just have somebody kill some time by pushing the helicopters (no tow bar) around with an MRAP, after the wiring harnesses and electronic boxes were destroyed.  Pushing the tail booms (with a running start for the MRAP) around a bit, would have done far more damage to the helicopters than the various videos have shown.

but surely we should be happy that hundreds and hundreds, thousands of refugees were able to be airlifted out of that shithole......I mean they will be a welcome addition to our melting pot society, I'm sure that they'll fit in nicely with our society....I mean our diversity, our vibrancy, is our strength isn't it? Or so they tell us. I mean just what we needed to keep ourselves honest, true to our founders, some of the most educated, brilliant people of their time.  We needed to import more illiterate, backwater, livestock abusing,  close-minded, boy diddling, misogynist, troglodytes to bolster our weakened society.

That and like the average mid 20's person that hasn't been though it or had close friends go though it. Figured, I will marry him and then I can bring him home with me as my husband. Not knowing that it's going to take from 6-12 months for the gov to approve that, IF they are lucky and everything goes though. The mess that place is in, I don't see it happening.

She's been in TRADOC since O5, except a brief stint in a unit that basically disposes of chemical weapons. Those who can't recognize allied uniforms or use apostrophes, teach, apparently.
