Yes, when you give the enemy what it wants, for nothing in return, that is what happens. Trump left office and Biden could not up the number of troops according to the "deal" Trump and Pompeo struck. So how do you do an effective pullout of hundreds of thousands of people with 2,500 troops on the ground? The fact that we only lost 13 people is a freaking miracle.

Used Bagram instead of Karzi for one...
Not set a set date certain for leaving, like Biden...

Because Republicans are hypocritical trash. I'm not a Democrat and I don't like them, but only an idiot could not see military deaths are political pawns for the right. It's why the same clowns who screamed about f o u r deaths in Libya and demanded hearing after hearing after hearing, never had that same energy for a f***ing NEOCON/PNAC war based on lies leading to the deaths of over 4400 troops and a million civilians. I didn't see Kristol or Frum or Cheney or Feith or Rumsfeld or the countless other blood-thirsty war criminals get their a$$es hauled before committees to be yelled at for murdering that many people based on lies. I didn't see Republican sh*ts attack Cheney for psychotically lying about some Saddam-OBL connection. This is why I laugh when buffoons on the right say the media is "liberal." Blitzer allowed Cheney to sit there and lie to the American people. The media did the bidding of Neocons and they're also the only reason Trump ever became president. They allowed that birther scum a platform to lie. They covered his klan rallies. He got free advertising from that "liberal" media. That's what the media has always done.

A military fact-finding committee found that "senior military officials were responsible for security lapses and blamed the military chain of command for the disaster. It suggested that there might have been many fewer deaths if the barracks guards had carried loaded weapons and a barrier more substantial than the barbed wire the bomber drove over easily."
Following the bombing, "the presence of protective barriers (bollards) became common around critical government facilities in the United States and elsewhere, particularly Western civic targets situated overseas."

That’s why the Army says the matter is closed and no charges will be pursued. You just know some Trump Derangèmênt Sýndrome ANC employee showed their @ss inappropriately and now the ANC, Army, etc, do NOT want that footage released. All the talk about ANC being a sacred space and conducting yourself with dignity and respect will fly out the window when the ANC employee is shown having a meltdown on news stations and acting a fool on hallowed ground.
Do you realize that just because you made this scenario up in your head doesn't mean it happened that way? I am concerned for your grip on reality.

In this election Democrats are going to underperform against the polls, and thus Republicans will over-perform. Democrats have to get 11 or 12 people wanting Harris to win for every ten votes they actually get? MAGA is able to intimidate 1 or 2 from voting or, failing that, disqualify them at the polling place. The disqualifications also serve to slow down voting and make people turn away. Trump, on the other hand, gets ten votes for every ten MAGA. Harris and the Democrats just can’t overcome that math.
