Meanwhile, the 'How many people can you fit on a HMMVV? Competition is drawing to a close...

Joking aside, I reckon Sunday could well see them entering Kabul :-\

We should never have poked our noses in the first place. Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Korea, Vietnam......all shitshows that sent the west packing.

The Afgan army have taken the training and all the money ,benefits, lifestyle and equipment for years,
now they have to do their job and defend against the Taliban  ,they are all giving up, waving their white flags ,defecting  >:(
did they get trained by the French  :-\
I really hope our people can get out without more needless injuries and loss of life .
i fear not ,now the Taliban have captured (or got handed) US and UK weapons and hardware  :(

Well, it would seem my six day prediction was accurate...

They've entered Kabul.

And apparently Bagram...
