    So many read this as "the situation was hopeless", but it is in fact an indictment of the US, which has more money than the Taliban and could have run this playbook in reverse under competent leadership. Having corruptible soldiers should be good news for a wealthy occupier.https://twitter.com/shashj/status/1426976247003983882 …

    Taliban paved way for surrenders "early last year". Deals "often described...as cease-fires, but Taliban leaders were in fact offering money in exchange for government forces to hand over their weapons, according to an Afghan officer and a U.S. official." https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2021/08/15/afghanistan-military-collapse-taliban/ …

        The fact that local leaders in Afghanistan switch sides based on how the wind is blowing is something the United States could have made great use of in 2001. Instead they decided there could be no deals with the Taliban, and so here we are.

        The fact that the US poured so much money in to Afghanistan to be stolen instead of used to bribe the right people, and that the even this stolen money was stolen by locals rather than US generals, is our true national humiliation.

        I also enjoy the dissonance between "the warlike people of Afghanistan can never live in peace" and the Taliban simply negotiating their way to a rapid takeover of the country

        American military leadership is often reduced to a string of powerpoint sitreps with little action in between other than ordering mindless training, spending, and other types of busywork.

        Seems like the grotesque failure of the withdrawal plan is a result of the same delusion and lack of realism that led to such a long occupation. Maybe US wealth is part of that problem. Money makes it harder to see clearly. You can afford to delude yourself.
