@bizlet7 They don’t want to come here because they love their country and haven’t ruined it into a steaming shithole

@infantrydort The more and more time that passes and the more I hear about the GWOT from vets the more I realize military leadership at the time was genuinely traitorous.

When it came to partnering with Afghans, I was actually convinced for awhile that their failure was my fault. Why? Because that’s what our superiors told us. I remember giving honest assessments in formal reports about the capabilities of Afghans. It led to many confrontations with superiors across different tours. “You can’t write that they don’t do X, Y, or Z in this SITREP. Don’t you know every failure is yours and every success is theirs?” That was the mantra. Every failure was ours and every success theirs. And I believed it. The military intellectual crowd was in charge at the time. The ones who hate us now for noticing their inadequacies. The ones who made us think that we could succeed if we made just one more measure of performance and measure of effectiveness to implement. Maybe we could make that barbarian culture better by just doing one more intellectual thing. No. And it’s those same people who punished us for telling the truth. And they should be shamed for it in perpetuity. Senior leaders in 2021 acted stunned at how the Afghans fell so fast. Nobody could believe it. Maybe they were stunned because the truth had been filtered for decades. Laundered. And for what? Lies. All lies. And they were peddled by the most “intelligent” military leaders among us. So if you’re part of that crowd and are now uncomfortable with the current backlash from “idiots” like me. I simply ask, why? You earned it.

I always get confused when I hear people say they never saw the collapse of the Afghan military coming. Anyone who’s been on the ground with them knew this. I saw an entire ANA battalion with modern American equipment get pinned down by 3 Taliban with AKs. Begging me for air support. How was this a surprise?

@infantrydort Because what you saw firsthand wasn’t common knowledge among the 99% who weren’t there to experience it firsthand.

Dan Orlovsky’s point is we’re giving Fernando Mendoza too much credit. Threw the ball a total of 86 times the final 4 games. Big 10 Championship through College FB playoffs. It’s got a JJ McCarthy feel

@RobProvince Why so sensitive? Everyone knows that this is his son and that this son was also a love child. Again, there’s really no reason to be so sensitive about it.

@espn The Rooney Rule requires interviews, not hires, but when teams already know their guy and just "check the box," it's insulting to everyone.

Florida's attorney general has sent a letter to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to express concern that the Rooney Rule is "blatant race and sex discrimination" and that hiring decisions should be based on merit only. spr.ly/6017B6g0vH

@waterbury_e @DBCooperTX It’s actually not though. Iran had a large Air Force, a large navy, known to have thousands of ballistic missiles, unknown tens of thousands of drones, etc. Yea, the US was clearly superior but no one expected this kind of widespread destruction of them with little to show for it

@DBCooperTX It's impressive but honestly, it's a bit like Alabama playing a 5-year-old girls flag football team, not much competition. But hey a conference win is a conference win! Having these walk-through practices helps see what our tech is capable of.

Losing any American soldier is tragic but I’m not sure there is an expert alive that would have predicted only 7 direct combat related deaths after exchanging fire with the Iranian Regime for a month.

@leovatf @WarMonitor3 You guys live in a strange world. You can be totally decimated and still be able to send off a handful of drones that make it through and land a punch. Iran is in really bad shape but still had some capability. No one said they had no more capability.

Satellite imagery has shown Iranian strikes have likely damaged or destroyed several US airforce KC-135 refuelling tankers at Prince Sultan Airbase in Saudi Arabia.

@WomanDefiner Boots on the ground was always going to happen. The second this war started the US were committed to boots on the ground. How are people not understanding this. Not only is it plausible, it’s simply going to happen. That enriched uranium, at a minimum, has to be removed

@WarMonitor3 You also can’t force regime change. This is obvious to anyone paying attention to human history. Wipe out all their ability to enrich uranium and take all their enriched uranium and at a minimum you’re buying yourself a lot of time

Any expert on nuclear counter proliferation policy will tell you the only reliable way to prevent Iran having a nuclear bomb long term is regime change, unless we want to hit them every year for the next decade, considering the leadership is more extreme now.

Because everything in this movie prior to it and everything in Star Wars movies that came after it suckled. And everyone stood in line for it for 3 hours only to be entertained for 12 minutes, like a roller coaster. I'm still on your side. Star Wars fans are stupid and this is when they should've walked away and said we're done.

@PubWanghaf I know I’m in the minority but reporters asking these questions are reasonable and expected. He is also well within reason to not answer them. I wouldn’t answer them either if I was him but if I’m a reporter I’m asking the question because I KNOW he’s getting that uranium.

@Faytuks There were always going to be boots on the ground to extract the enriched uranium. Once this whole thing kicked off they had to get the uranium
