Two of the nation's top military commanders said on Tuesday they both recommended keeping several thousand U.S. troops in Afghanistan to prevent a Taliban takeover.In his first congressional testimony on the withdrawal, Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said his view had long been that leaving the country, without meeting specific conditions, would likely lead to the collapse of the Afghan armed forces and government.Milley was speaking alongside the secretary of defense and the top U.S. commander in the region at the start of two days of intense questioning about the tumultuous withdrawal.

Damaging our "image"? What a Sherlock, thoroughly modern Milley is. I don't believe anything this POS says. He and his Equal Opportunity Austin, deserve prison time in Leavenworth, or worse!

If this is remotely true, the Republicans should be drawing up articles of impeachment for Talibiden as I type.
Hey, I can dream can’t I?

My theory is that the Taliban wanted the equipment and told China that if they wanted a deal for mining Afghanistan they'd better tell their puppet Biden to leave the equipment in Afghanistan.
Biden, money grubbing traitor that he is, figured he'd get through the ensuing outrage with the help of the media and his corporate protectors.

Damaged? It was damaged long before the huge mistakes of Bagram and Kabul. A more accurate word is "gone."

Milley is finding religion a little to late for credibility.

Milley is a classic example of a battery spouse: He gets beaten and disrespected by his ‘spouse’, the Demoncrats and still drops to his knees in supplication to them.
In my old neighborhood, we’d call him a punk @ss rhymes with witch and beat him daily.

The only accomplishment of Medals Milley is that he was able to go to the PX and buy the decorations he put in his coat.

Idi Austin is what Milley aspires to be. Where is Vindman and Mattis? Oh, but the gov't can jail a Ltcol for speaking out about the cowardly way his superiors turned tail and ran. In the meantime, a Jan 6 protestor dies in a D.C. torture chamber.
And to top it all off, we have gotten a demented pervert fool who doesn't have the cognitive ability to even know he's not fooling anybody with his lies. He's the guy at the dealership trying to get you to buy the undercoating because he got a special deal from the manager...just for you!
His time in office will be over when the Haitians figure out they can take whatever goods they want from our stores and the Afghanis start raping our children (equal opportunistic animals).
If there was ever an understatement from Stinky, it was what he said about BiteMe's ability to eff things up.

Trump ordered the generals to start removing troops last year, but they didn't do it. So when Milly says it's not his job to determine Trump's mental state, that's exactly what they did when they didn't follow Trump's orders, and the reason for his call to his buddy in China.
