I feel like Sisyphus engaging in lost causes trying to help Afghans I know escape.
Our government is in no less shambles than that of the Afghan Government, they are adrift as are we. They have no representation, as do we. This organization (Army) no longer represents my values, values which were a requirement at the time of my enlistment. I finally cried today. I could hold out no longer. |

View Quote Elcope, you and your people did everything’s asked of them. You have no reason to be upset for your part in this. You did your duty. It’s got to be very frustrating to see the men that stood beside you, that risked everything to help you and your team be tossed aside because it’s convenient for that dumbass in office. You’re a good man, who stood beside other good men from around the world. The powers that be are turning their back on them, stand tall and stand proud knowing that you never turned your back on them. Fuck that geriatric globalist piece of shit. Fuck the dick Cheney’s. Fuck the George bushes. Fuck every single person that sent us there, knowing full well that we would abandon the Afghan people when it was most convenient. Fuck em. |
