What credibility does Ol'roy boy have when he says that the New YORK Crimes are "Rightwing nut jobs"?? Originally Posted by bb1961

Not helping transparency, the Biden Administration is now hiding key audits on Afghan military equipment. This week, our auditors at OpenTheBooks.com reposted two key reports on the U.S. war chest of military gear in Afghanistan that had disappeared from federal websites.




The U.S. provided an estimated $83 billion worth of training and equipment to Afghan security forces since 2001. This year, alone, the U.S. military aid to Afghan forces was $3 billion.

Putting price tags on American military equipment still in Afghanistan isn’t an easy task. In the fog of war – or withdrawal – Afghanistan has always been a black box with little sunshine.

What I posted was an excerpt from a long article debunking trumps bullshit. On top of that we had like 60 plane loads of equipment taken out in May 21. Trump said he removed a bunch also, but no telling what that dumb fuck's story is today. If trump removed a bunch like he claimed there should be nowhere near over 80 billion in hardware like he says.

A lot has been destroyed in the course of the war, some has been moved to other countries, and some we "demilitarized" in various ways. There is no true accounting of it, it isn't like the stuff is stored like we would on our US bases so it is easy to count.

I give it 5-7 billion in arms, trucks, and maybe a few helis if they are still functional. And we aren't there to shoot at so most of it is useless. Oh ya and a bunch of night vision stuff so they can go goat hunting in the dark.

The Taliban’s new arsenal does not include $80 billion in military equipment, 22,000 Humvees, and 33 Black Hawk helicopters... At the moment, it appears that the Taliban actually acquired 10 inoperable Black Hawk helicopters, about 2,000 vehicles (many of which were demilitarized), and a number of other weapons totaling less than $10 billion.

seems that france did not like being left out of the deal with UK, Australia and U.S.


is it because they're too unreliable or is it because France does not have nuclear powered submarines. (they have diesel electrics)

If we do, it won't be a 5000-8000 security force. It will be another 100000+ military whoop ass. Ground support, air support, etc. All that hardware will be easy to pick off if it is still running by then. Blackhawks sound bad ass, but they are basically transport helis that can be fitted with weapons. The ones we gave them are old clunkers from 40 years ago. They break down easy, and no parts supply. The other vehicles if taken apart, they won't go back together without special gasket compounds. That is how they are assembled so they don't have to stock hundreds of physical gaskets like regular cars/trucks on the road. Those compounds are not easy to get.

here is your leader - per 95 zeroes - with his long , hard, hot cigar clenched in sensuous lips!


fiden is already shipping millions of $ in ransom - to the Taliban - for nothing
when does fiden give them nuclear equipped bombers and nuclear submarines???
Soon - as his failing senile mind is run by faceless marxist handlers in the oval office closets.

That hardware will be worthless by the time we get involved again, if ever. That hardware needs constant maintenance, no parts, no tires (they usually have run flats but they still wear out), probably no equipment to even work on the stuff. Tools, lifts if needed, etc.

Whether the Taliban can maintain that equipment or not isn't the point. The Point is Biden executed the evacuation from Afghanistan in a backwards fashion. There shouldn't be any American Citizens there at all. Thirteen American Soldiers should not have been killed. Twenty years of U.S. Involvement is now in vain because Biden didn't do right things. Biden has fifty years of Political experience and he has proven he is the most unqualified president in history. He hasn't been in office a year and he is a total bust.

Your argument is that biden only left them 10 billion worth of military hardware? Seriously?
