We’re out!
It looks like Biden pulled out a day early. It’s very early in the morning on 31 August in Afghanistan and the last of the US military aircraft is wheels up. The US military is no longer in Afghanistan. This does explain why they were turning away civilians the last day or so, as we discussed earlier. Ain’t no more room. Forget if you want to come home, you should have made it here sooner, pal.
The Pentagon announced Monday that all U.S. troops have departed Afghanistan.
The removal of U.S. troops meets the Aug. 31 deadline the Biden administration agreed to with the Taliban, officially drawing the country’s longest-ever conflict to an end.
But the fate of those left behind remains a mystery, with White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki confirming earlier Monday that a “small number” of Americans who want to leave remain in the country.
Psaki could not give an estimate on exactly how many Americans remained in the country, though a senior State Department official put the number at “below 250.”
No man left behind. Except for a couple hundred.
Axios is reporting that CENTCOM commander General McKenzie is saying;
He said the “vast majority” of Americans who hoped to flee were evacuated.
He said the last flight left at 3:29 pm ET on Monday. The evacuation of U.S. civilians ended about 12 hours earlier, he said.
“We continued the outreach and would have been prepared to bring them on until the very last minute but none of them made it to the airport and were able to be accommodated.”
The vast majority. That will be great comfort to those left behind and their loved ones who now await to hear how many times they get raped before they get beheaded. He also seems to be making it a point (again) that to get evacuated one would have to get themselves to the airport, through the hordes of trigger-happy Taliban armed with American weaponry.
At least the Taliban are happy. Axios says;
Celebratory gunfire rang out in Kabul after the U.S. withdrawal ended.
Category: "Your Tax Dollars At Work", Afghanistan, Biden
Now begins Operation Under-The-Rug Sweep.
Lots of congratulations all around, and the smiting of any who cast aspersions on those in charge, or the swamp-minions.
And, of course, a new ribbon.
It’s done… as played last time:
How ‘bout we drop that forked-tongue ginger twat off in Kabul and tell her to find her own way home…
Agreed!!
C’mon man. Even the Taliban don’t deserve that. We are Americans, not monsters.
I’m pretty sure we still have military persons there and will for a while.
Someday there will be a poser claiming “I was left behind”.
There I was… POW Medal w/ “V,” coming up!
And where, may I asked, is Hiden Biden and his VP???
Oh, that’s right.
Walkaway Biden doesn’t want to talk about Afghanistan.
This- “We continued the outreach and would have been prepared to bring them on until the very last minute but none of them made it to the airport and were able to be accommodated.” is a bullshit comment according to ‘boots on the ground’. They turned away four busloads of people WITH US passports at the back gate.
And snuck out in the middle of the night again! @#%#%$@#
Now that the last of our troops are out and anybody we left will be raped and murdered on live Tv come 9/11, we should unleash every bomber we have, targeting the Tallybums/Al-queerdos/ISIS-Kooks and the military equipment that the ANA dropped and ran from, blowing it all straight to hell.
What an unmitigated cluster!
The Taliban 2.0, the new, kinder, gentler ones, are already messaging the stranded students from American University in Kabul that they are going to be raped and murdered.
OMG!!!!
Did this lady and her animals get out???
https://www.military.com/daily-news/2021/08/25/us-woman-under-talibans-watch-wont-leave-kabul-without-her-staff-and-hundreds-of-rescue-animals.html?ESRC=mr_210830.nl
What are we going to do???
(sarcasm…:))
*breathes deeply, tries to contain rage*
[edited]!@#$%^&*!!!!!!!!1111111[/edited]
C’mon over to the Cantina, Joe. It’s a designated rage location. And we have real beer.
Now comes the billions in humanitarian aid to Afghanistan so Biden will look, well, humane and concerned.
While I have no doubt we left many, many Americans that DID want to leave, there will be dollars for people there too.
He will spin this like a dreidel to show he got us out ahead of time and MSM will forget the dead and wounded and he will be their King again. He always was, they were just waiting for this to prop him back up. He is still going to have to answer to questions from us, Senate hearings, and many others.
So except for a few news outlets, this will be an old story tomorrow.
After tomorrow, the ransom demands and/or killing of abandoned Americans will begin.
Beheadings on Al Jazeera and/or YouTube/Twitter…
I was doing fairly well, or as well as can be expected. Now this?
Once again, if you are a veteran and you ever vote for a Democrat again, you are dishonoring your service and no longer deserve the honorable title, “Veteran”.
Go ahead. Change my mind.
Where are you getting that?
This withdrawal is driven by a treaty Trump signed.
I bet you were praising the treaty when he signed it last year.
It was not a treaty.
Idiot.
Ok, the “agreement” Trump signed.
To which the Taliban repeatedly reneged on and violated, you lose yet again, Major Moonbat.
I would say that Biden reneged on the treaty by changing the departure date from May to September
You can repeat it as many times as you want but it will remain untrue, in both the particulars as well as the broader concept.
Pedantically it was an agreement and not a treaty.
The rest of the “particulars” stand.
And I am certain you praised it last year…you partisan hack.”
New low for you.
Just walk away.
Disparaging a Gold Star mother should be instant banishment. This is a new low for you, Lars. It’s best that you walk away.
Truly loathsome…responding to a Gold Star Mother like that. Especially on a day like today.
You may have once been an officer, Lars, but you’re damned sure no gentleman.
What you are is a totally classless Blue Falcon who deserves a first-class ass-kicking.
Both Lars’s and Biden’s Fathers should have pulled out early.
That would assuredly saved the nation a great deal of grief. I don’t know what is worse, an addled brain or a thoroughly washed one.
A Proud Infidel@,
I was about to joke that Hunter Biden’s father should have pulled out a day early.
But now we have other candidates.
And you got there 1st.
Kudos.
Thankyuhverymuch!
ahh, yes. Name calling. That’s the signal when you know you are wrong but can’t or won’t admit it…also, projection with that particular epithet.
You do not want to go there with me. Fair warning.
You calling anyone a partisan hack is hilarious at best, Lars, but throwing it at OAM is a new low of douchery for you.
Respect is earned, and so is disrespect. You bust your ass more than anyone I’ve ever seen to win the latter.
Damn, Lars – when does it end? Only Army Mom doesn’t go anywhere near the level of vitriol that you do and you start in with the name calling with her?
spapos, them’s fighting words. ‘specially when directed toward OAM.
Not a threat…just a statement of fact.
Total lack of class, even from you I’d expected better. You’ve proven you truly are scum lars. Go away and don’t come back.
Dave, AwEd, Mason, etal, please get this son-of-a-bitch, fraud, yellow coward off this blog!! Jon would have shit canned Lars in a heart beat after he saw this spineless coward make that comment to Only Army Mom.
And to you Lars (alias commissar), you are a spineless worthless piece of skin and a liar.
But most of all, you are a coward!
In the past couple of years, I have done my research on you and have come across & have had conversations with a number of individuals that served with you at one time or another. To a person, not a one would have pissed on you if you were on fire!
As far as your “combat” experience, just by the plain fact that you never received a CAB, proves that you never saw any action! Instead of the image you try to project, you are actually a fraud and a feckless coward!
Why don’t you go play dress up with your buccaneer or cosplay outfits that you have posted on your Facebook page. All your good for is pretending to be someone your not nor ever will be.
All you were in the military was a school boy. About the only thing you’re good for is ordering a meal in Chinese which I’m sure you would still fuck up.
On this blog are real heroes. Some have Silver Stars, Bronze Stars w/V devices, ARCOM’s and we even have a Medal Of Honor recipient. And of course we have Denise & Only Army Mom, our two Gold Star mothers. They have truly earned the right to post here!
Your kind is not wanted here and you haven’t earned the right to be here!
YELLOW BELLIED COWARD!!
What he said!
But, seriously,
Lars, you suck.
Any Lars stories you can share? He’s begging for humiliation at this point.
He ain’t here for the hunting…
There’s a song about him:
Lars tackled a terrorist once… all by himself.
In fairness to the terrorist he didn’t ask for the unwanted contact and filed a complaint with the local police station that he was in the middle of burning down.
Lars kept talking about saving his life and how he needed to “check his groin” for injuries.
Where was that Portland? Seattle?
Dude,…
I always thought OCS produced at a minimum, gentlemen.
Indeed, with the ability to lead troops and gain their respect.
You most likely would not have survived Vietnam.
He’d probably make Calley look like Patton.
Lars who I prefer to address as Major Moonbat likely would have been fragged there the first chance someone had at it!
You speak that way to not only a lady, but also a Gold Star Mom?
Good thing that you have the internet to hide behind.
Classless. You sir, should be ashamed of yourself!
And for what? So that you can defend something that is absolutely un-defendable! YOUR president has made a mess of everything that he has touched in the last 8 months. I think that most of us here had low expectations of him, but it looks like he is taking it as a challenge to see how low he can go.
“Pedantically it was an agreement and not a treaty.”
It’s a bit more than ‘pedantic’, dumbass. Treaties have the force of law, agreements can be “reagreed” as Biden did.
And the agreement was driven by the decision to withdraw, not the other way around.
I’ll bet you even flunked out of Troll school.
“partisan hack”?
Myself, I prefer partisan hacks to raving lunatics.
The Trump plan was a conditions-based withdrawal. If the conditions were not met, there would be no withdrawal. Have you recently suffered a brain injury, or are you just plain stupid?
The treaty Trump signed lasted about a week before the Taliban violated it. It’s null and void. Biden did this all on his own, his plan, not Trumps. And you need to watch your mouth with Army Mom. She has more right than any of us to speak her mind.
Lars, you ball-less, spineless, mindless c*nt fungus, go away – preferably to Kabul.
And don’t return.
You are a stain on every honorable service member’s shoe sole.
Graybeard, I find myself in agreement with your last sentence.
Mods, please pull Lar’s plug. Insulting a Gold Star Mom, well, that’s going too far, especially as this withdrawal probably just created a few new ones 🙁
I fucking KNEW IT! When I saw the blog post title, I said to myself “the first thing Lars will say is ‘but Trump’” and damned if you didn’t. Not to mention how you swooped in to defend the word democrat.
“But Trump” will be the first retort for every damn bad thing that happens for the next three and a half years. Even if the retort doesn’t make any logical sense.
The man lives rent free in these people’s heads.
The Agreement that was confirmed by Congress. consisted of several requirements which must be met in order to proceed to the next Phase. There was no “Deadline to pull out” established in the agreement, though a socialized date of 1 Sep 2021 was discussed. Of course, with all plans things change: The Taliban agreed to not attack US Troops. They met that agreement. No US Troops were attacked (killed or injured) until ISIS-K sent a Suicide bomber to the airport last week. The Taliban had to work with the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (GIRoA), and come to a Power Sharing agreement, which established territories, and rights of individuals as well as property and civil laws. The Taliban failed on this count. No agreements were ever attempted. No formal government was ever attempted with a mix of GIRoA and Taliban member or laws. For some random reason, the only thing that was held to the agreement was a timeline that did not actually exist, and by the agreement was not enforceable due to other clarified standards not met. Who is running the Government of the United States of America (GoUSA?!)? Is it Ms. Giggles who jetted off to South Asia when all this was going on? Maybe it is the Shadow Czar who preaches how the World is going to end to to Climate Change caused by Man’s over use of Petroleum Products and excess Carbon Emissions as he flies around the world in his Private Jets from his 12 Mansions (non of which are equipped with even Solar water heaters for the pool)! Or maybe it is the Puppet Master who remained the dowdy spouse as her philandering husband ran the country, who tried to check the boxes as an official and leader so she could run but failed miserably at all things to include becoming electable as President!!! Or maybe it is the Leader in waiting who holds on to Power with the slimmest of margins as the third runner up?! Perhaps we will find out as, the 25th Amendment is invoked, but the Leader in… Read more »
Only Army Mom, Can’t say I disagree with you Ma’am. I’m an old cold war vet and I happen to think if you vote for the party of Pelosi and Schumer you spit in the eye of everyone who served, served and shed blood and served and died in the last 20 years in Afghanistan and Iraq. But that’s just my opinion. Democrat is just another way to spell commie to me.
The 31st was the last day of the ceasefire according to the treaty Trump signed.
So I don’t see how leaving on the morning of the 31st is a “day early”.
Ok, still not a treaty and the rest is untrue. Since I know you didn’t fucking read it, here is a copy. Please show us where it says the 31st of August is the last day of the ceasefire?
https://www.state.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Agreement-For-Bringing-Peace-to-Afghanistan-02.29.20.pdf
Idiot
Thank you for linking the actual agreement. I have been meaning to read it, but my laziness got in the way.
“The United States is committed to withdraw from Afghanistan all military forces of the United States,
its allies, and Coalition partners, including all non-diplomatic civilian personnel, private security
contractors, trainers, advisors, and supporting services personnel within fourteen (14) months following
announcement of this agreement, and will take the following measures in this regard: …”
Fourteen months would have been May 2021, just like President Trump announced to the world. Presumably the senior military leaders including CENTCOM got wind of this agreement and had fourteen months to plan and prepare. Much as I loathe Biden, it is unfair to blame him exclusively for this clusterfumble.
You don’t see a lot of shit actually.
Yeah funny that. Strange that every thing that went wrong got blamed on an agreement that didn’t have most of the shit that people are complaining about in it.
Except when he looks in his shorts, you mean…
In order for a TREATY to be valid it has to be ratified via a vote in the US Senate, something that wasn’t done on the agreement, once again you prove yourself to be a babbling brainwashed idiot, Major Moonbat.
Lars mom’s.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDpyps7FUo8
WTF is wrong with you? Are you a 12 year old basement troll?
He would’ve posted worse then.
This, perhaps?
That’d be a few thousand levels above you, Lars.
I dunno…..but attacking a Gold Star Mother a d calling her a “partisan hack” pings pretty high on the ‘12 year old basement troll’ meter.
Says the loser who disparaged a Gold Star Mom.
You need some free dental work bro.
Says the person who denigrated a Gold Star Mother.
One thing Biden learned under Obama was how to cut in run. Leaving assess swinging in the breeze? No problem as the next President can solve the problem.
Again with the fucking bullshit.
The Bush agreement was that US forces would withdraw from all Iraqi cities by the end of 2009 and withdraw from Iraq by December 31st, 2011.
Obama operated under that agreement. I was in Iraq when Bush signed the agreement and we began operating under it.
Obama did not “cut and run”.
Not exactly a neutral source. That rag caters to the same demographic that wants endless wars.
Read the 2008 SOFA agreement..
Perhaps?
So I guess you never read the agreement as well? Like Article 12 where either party could cancel the agreement with a one year notice? That must have really tied Obama’s hands being able to simply cancel it if he wanted to.
Doubling down on my idiot comment above.

We are gonna need a compete manifest who was on the last bird. Or else we are doomed to “I was on the last bird out” story’s.
It was me, I’m texting from the plane! Ima on chalk 13. I made sure my feet were the last on the dirt before they closed the door. Now they have me running as a door gunner on the C5. Send money to my Go Fraud Me Account:

I am in the john with the door locked,,,, we are last bird brothers!
So you know it is me the secret knock is three long ones followed by three short ones.
Y’all need to settle down back there, it’s hard enough for me to keep this big ol’ bird trimmed up with all the extry weight in them wheel wells. Turn off that damned phone, put the cigarette out, you KNOW you ain’t supposed to be smoking in that john.
Now if I could just remember what this yella and black handle does…

Those whacky Taliban, always coming up with new ways to execute people.
Like Omar getting hung in Scarface:
Hiden Biden…Coward…Worst President EVER…
Writes a statement, but will not address our Nation UNTIL TOMORROW AFTERNOON…
AFTERNOON!!!!
Bet he will read from a teleptompter, talk about Beau and IF he takes questions from certain reporters, will repeat what he hears from his earpiece.
“After the Pentagon’s announcement, President Joe Biden, in a statement Monday evening, thanked the American military and said he would address the nation Tuesday afternoon about his decision not to prolong the U.S. mission in Afghanistan beyond Aug. 31.”
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/30/afghanistan-update-last-us-troops-leave-kabul-ending-evacuation.html
The delay is Dementia Joe probably waiting to see if the Taliban needed anything more.
Dementia Joe kept the promise he made to the Taliban on bended knee.
As for the Americans (100-150+) still behind the lines after the pull-out… His (Dementia Joe) administration, knowing they couldn’t get them out without permission from the Taliban blocking access to the airport, decided to add the qualifier “if they want to leave”.
Saw a post in another part of Al Gores Interweb from a guy with a septic tank pumping business. He said “if D.C. wasn’t so far away, he’d ‘cropdust’ the streets surrounding 1600 Pennsylvania Ave with a couple of his trucks” to express not just his feelings, but the feelings of a lot of citizens.
Dude should set up a gofundme for his gas money.
He’d probably get enough for a new truck…
Speech wasn’t worth the wait.
Déjà vu…
At least the commies had to shoot their way into Saigon. Kabul, not so much.
According to Tucker Carlson report, an Afghan refugee flown to Ft McCoy was previously deported for rape. Also, it allegedly appears refugees held at Ft McCoy are free to come & go as they please. The commanding general has no say in the matter. Just brilliant. What could go wrong?
They’re free to come and go, but are they vaccinated? Probably about as much as the illegal aliens that the Joke Biteme administration is letting in by the horde.
Should fit right in with the other illegal aliens coming over the southern border.
I bet Old Gropey Joe wishes he pulled out early back in May ’69.
Military working dogs left behind in cages.
Soulless indifference up and down the Chain of Command. The rot starts at the top.
Those were animal rescue dogs not military dogs according to the Pentagon.
I will wait for a reliable source.
f true, everyone involved should be left in the same conditions.. preferably in an area just hit by the hurricane.
Hey, LtCol. Scheller’s apparently passed his psych evaluation… https://www.yahoo.com/news/marine-criticized-military-leaders-over-011717623.html?.tsrc=ylite&apptype=pwa
I’m curious, the whistleblower act prohibits any kind of mental eval like this, because it could be retribution. I can’t remember it exactly (there was a form covering it that had to be read to and signed by Soldiers going on the overweight program), it’s been a few years. Could LtCol Scheller’s acts be considered whistleblowing? Or is it exempt because of the path he took to report? I’m no lawer, just curious.
He sounded “angry” so they have an excuse to make sure he’s okay, you know…
