Bill would have immediately recognized the need to keep our own airbase til the end. Maggie would have pointed out we should first evacuate our embassy staff and other allies quickly and quietly. Walt would have flagged the importance of getting our equipment out/destroyed.

I did hear a quote this morning that I am pondering... "The Taliban fears no military, nor economic sanctions, nor modern warfare technology, nor anything NATO, Russia or China can bring to bear" "They fear Afghanistan women" I think this might be what we really over-looked.
