Sorry for the CNN link but you must read this story.

https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/06/world/afghanistan-american-exit-taliban-intl-cmd/index.html

We pulled our troops from the largest us base in Afghanistan with 24 hours notice? They left so quickly that they left half eaten snacks and sodas in the vehicles?

“Some Afghan soldiers told CNN they only found out the Americans were leaving that very day.”

“One senior officer said he was notified last Thursday that his forces had less than 24 hours to secure the perimeter of the base.”

“Among the equipment left behind are some 700 vehicles: Humvees, pickup trucks and 4 x 4s, some still littered with half-eaten American snacks like Oreos and partially consumed soda bottles.”

Weird.
