For most , no ship required as the majority ended up in Canada. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We left 100's of billions in equipment, abandoned our allies whom also spent there blood and treasure. Spit in the face of every soldier that served. Allowed Woman to be burned in the streets....and you think it's neat that they let us use the airport. Go fuck Janet Mills you moron. Before the pullout, when were you playing to ship out for Afghanistan? Edited August 18, 2021 by ActionfigureJoe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While its true I didn't serve, the men I know who did feel the same. Secondly, they know that they are a volunteer force, nobody drafted them.

However, your specious argument between what we got and 20 years won't work on most thinking individuals. It makes you look like a fool. If you can't imagine an exit that pulled out our civilian population and Afghan partners first...I can't help you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phenom Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 I love how the news channels are trotting out vets whose hearts are bleeding for the Afgans who assisted them. My army son has been to both Afghanistan and Iraq and neither he or his battle buddies who I’ve met had any good things to say about the Afgans or Iraqis…so take it for what it’s worth. I have no personal beef with the citizens of either country, but hey, it’s your country and you need to make the best of it. Good luck.

The msm love to find the vets who felt they were in some sort of peace corps with bleeding hearts. These are the same ones that expect “thanks” for their service. Ughhh.

Give em their money and get the Americans out. It’s the reason they froze it in the first place. Bargaining chip.

His heart bleeds for his Afghan brothers . I understand it though, my Dad is a Vietnam veteran. Him and his fellow veterans need to believe what they did was noble. It is the only way they can cope with the trauma they endured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
