Can't wait to watch Jennifer Rubin blame the wounded troops for trying to make Biden look bad. https://t.co/DPtUs3H89I

More from this source:
“Military continues to retrograde and depart airport. Almost a certainty that Americans will be left behind. They will have to be extracted after-the-fact through either Taliban negotiation or unconventional means.”

I still think Russia ends up rescuing Americans to put the cherry on top of the humiliation.
I highly suspect Russia played a part in coordinating with the Taliban to get them to occupy the country so fast. Someone was serving them intel. So if Russians "rescue" Americans, it's all by design. Putin did say Biden was very "sharp".

Two explosions reported. Reports of US service members caught in the blasts and British citizens who still haven't managed to get into the airport.
What is the take in the UK? Do British citizens or media place any blame on Johnson for not getting UK citizens out in the past 4 months? The fact the US, Germany, the UK and France are all scrambling to evacuate people tells me something is completely amiss here. I know Biden just refused the G7's request to extend the withdrawal, did NATO not think Biden would pull out when he said he would?

Russia is getting too big for its britches.
Don't know if it's getting any attention on the national news like it is in the space communities but the US is about to unveil one of its classified space weapons.
It almost happened on Trump's watch but an event getting cancelled because of Covid put the brakes on it.
One of the people involved is advocating a live test of it to show we ain't fucking around.

Very interesting that Russian Intelligence is the first to report 13 KIA and 15 wounded.

4 US Marines dead, 3 wounded.

I understand military lives are expendable, and the public is numb to their deaths. But 4 Americans are never coming home because this administration failed to plan for an orderly withdrawal.

This is sick.
I don't know what we can do though. Does it warrant an escalation? I would say yes, but...
Are we currently in a position to escalate? Is it worth risking more lives?
It's already a cluster fuck. Do we risk making it worse?
Do we unite with the Taliban and throttle ISIS? Do we use special forces like Russia in Chechnya and just start killing anything that moves? Do we do limited air strikes to send a message? Do we just forget it happened and keep evacuating?
This is both tragic and embarrassing. I feel sorry for our troops stuck in this hell hole.
