re: #157 Dopamine Fish

They’re using it as lazy shorthand for, “US-manufactured equipment the Afghan Army owned”, which is apparently supposed to be a damning indictment because we… supplied our allies with gear and they abandoned it when they surrendered?

re: #158 lawhawk

US manufactured equipment that was given/sold to the Afghan military and now rendered inoperable. But that wont stop the caterwauling of the GOPers who were perfectly fine when Trump negotiated this with the Taliban or that Trump would have completely botched the handling of the withdrawal because the last thing Trump cares about is logistics (see also Puerto Rico after Maria).

What’s funny if that the helicopter she touches, while stating “the Taliban expected equipment like this to be left in one piece” is a Russian MI-17
