Typical Pat post with no substance and just ignoring Biden screwing this up badly and trying to Blame Trump when Trump would never have just up and left everything, creating a hell on Earth in the Middle East.
Actually, that was the plan all along. Under Trump and under Biden. The things "left behind" were intended to be used by the ANA. The military our forces trained to use those items to be used against the Taliban to protect the interests of the Afghan government. However, the ANA rolled over immediately because they were demoralized by the Doha agreement. After the Doha agreement, corruption increased, supply lines were cut by personnel starting to be even more out for themselves. We left that equipment there for them to fight the Taliban, but they didn't have the will to do it.
