They didn't step up when the election was stolen.
They didn't step up when the Supreme Court failed to do its job.
They seem fine with having our government being run by proxy from Beijing through the bribed Bidens.
They didn't step up when they were ordered to have their own soldiers injected with a potentially lethal experimental drug with permanent negative consequences for military capability.
If our military can stomach what has happened in Afghanistan on their watch then they are utterly useless. Their oaths mean nothing.
Let’s start with giving Gen. Milley the axe.
He'd likely prefer some pizza.
will a guillotine work?
And not in the “You’re fired” sense.
We should have been bringing over military settlers ala British India. We should have been doing that from the beginning. If we had offered land to Americans so they could set up villages and societies in the region kids born in the country would be anywhere from 15-20 years old right now and mostly integrated into the Afghan culture with dual American and Afghani citizenship. That's what should have been done to ensure the government stayed pro-western upon pulling out active forces. They could have formed their own militias and we could have kept an American presence in the region without a full military presence. They should have been guarded for 2 and a half decades by active combat forces to ensure that one whole generation could be integrated with the native culture.

The military had its hands tied by politicians, just like in Vietnam...
Blame lies at the feet of the politicians & the American people for electing them (or allowing them to be selected).
Military should always be the very last option lest we turn into Rome where it was military coup after military coup - be careful what you wish for...
We are obviously already to the last option.
Enjoy the Show
We didn't elect them or allow them to be selected. They have been rigging elections for a long time in complex and covert ways.
The American people never were in a position of power to fix this. They were defenseless against this foreign military intelligence operation.
Does it make it more acceptable to blame innocent American patriots and tell the innocent patriots they got what they deserve for electing these clowns? No!
The military is the only way. The military has the power and with that great power comes great obligation.
Blaming the American people does not relieve the military of its obligation or its oaths.
Military members follow orders given by those appointed over them. If congress declares war & the president directs the military into war, the generals follow orders. They also must fight in the manner prescribed by their orders (hence why Trump set the military free vs obama putting them on a leash).
Blaming members of the military does not relieve the American people of their obligations to maintaining a republic.
I agree that we have been subjected to unconventional warfare for a very long time & are nearing the point of military intervention. Imho, the military intervention will come only after foreign involvement in an attack on our election is publicly declared by the US gov.
Which US gov? The installed one?
"I was just following orders" isn't going to hack it.
When should the military choose to follow or not follow when ordered to war by congress & the president?
Who in the military makes that decision?
Is there a clause for that insubordination in the US Constitution?
I agree with your sentiment, though I think it is far more gray than 'its the military's fault'.
At some point someone in the military will have to declare that the legitimate chain of command goes to President Trump, and not to Biden, and act accordingly.
It would not be insubordination. It would be recognizing the legitimate chain of command. Following orders from an illegitimate chain of command is treason.
I agree with you that the time to declare it may be when the evidence of China rigging the election is laid bare to the public.
Canceled the downvote….
This was managed so badly (over the top bad) that it actually gives me hope that the Military is in control.
losing respect daily
You missed the invasion at our southern border.
Col Woldren (sp?) at the Cyber symposium said it's up to us to get audits done in our individual states. Join the audit group on Telegram for your state. Hoping to get that ball rolling in my county.
Flynn called out the corrupt military leadership. Hooah!
yes, wink wink.
It is your duty to follow your chain of command. Your legitimate chain of command does not lead to Biden or his appointees. Your legitimate chain of command leads to President Trump.
You know this is true.
Following an illegitimate chain of command is treason.
An order given from above you is only valid if it is given from the legitimate chain of command.
Are you delusional, this was a success. The administration is on vacation celebrating, and likely counting the reward.
Correct. No way in hell would the military leave weapons and helicopters behind.
This is exactly what the military did. The military owns this. https://www.jihadwatch.org/2021/08/afghanistan-taliban-seizes-us-weapons-and-military-equipment-as-takeover-accelerates
