About  a month ago, Afghanistan's ministry of defense posted on social media  photographs of seven brand new helicopters arriving in Kabul delivered  by the United States."They'll continue to see a steady drumbeat of that kind of support, going forward," U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters a few days later at the Pentagon.In  a matter of weeks, however, the Taliban had seized most of the country,  as well as any weapons and equipment left behind by fleeing Afghan  forces.  About a month ago, Afghanistan's ministry of defense  posted on social media photographs of seven brand new helicopters  arriving in Kabul delivered by the United States. In  a matter of weeks, however, the Taliban had seized most of the country,  as well as any weapons and equipment left behind by fleeing Afghan  forces.  Video  showed the advancing insurgents inspecting long lines of vehicles and  opening crates of new firearms, communications gear and even military  drones. "Everything  that hasn't been destroyed is the Taliban's now," one U.S. official,  speaking on the condition of anonymity, told Reuters. Current  and former U.S. officials say there is concern those weapons could be  used to kill civilians, be seized by other militant groups such as Islamic State to attack U.S.-interests in the region, or even potentially be handed over to adversaries including China and Russia.

Another  official said that while there are no definitive numbers yet, the  current intelligence assessment was that the Taliban are believed to  control more than 2,000 armored vehicles, including U.S. Humvees, and up  to 40 aircraft potentially including UH-60 Black Hawks, scout attack  helicopters, and ScanEagle military drones...

"We  have already seen Taliban fighters armed with U.S.-made weapons they  seized from the Afghan forces. 'MORE LIKE TROPHIES'.  The speed with which the Taliban swept across Afghanistan is reminiscent of  Islamic State militants taking weapons from U.S.-supplied Iraqi forces  who offered little resistance in 2014.  Between  2002 and 2017, the United States gave the Afghan military an estimated  $28 billion in weaponry, including guns, rockets, night-vision goggles  and even small drones for intelligence gathering. But  aircraft like the Blackhawk helicopters have been the most visible sign  of U.S. military assistance, and were supposed to be the Afghan  military' biggest advantage over the Taliban. Between  2003 and 2016 the United States provided Afghan forces with 208  aircraft, according to the U.S. Government Accountability Office.

We should all go back blow the place up and then the West should fill it full of :-Niggers, Beaners, Gypsies,Lebs and other nuisance races to build the place back for themselves!
