Why does this shock anyone? They looted Afghan Military Armories filled with Afghan Army equipment. Equipment that was more or less all American Equipment given we supplied them for 20+ years.
I wouldn’t be shocked to find out that most of them are former Afghan Army/Police. Both entities apparently had major problems with desertion before the collapse.
And during it. Entire Afghan Army units were outright defecting to the Taliban.

Taliban used our weaknesses to get military training. Part of their (Taliban's) plan I think.
Genius IMO, I would do the same if someone occupied my country and was willing to train my team.
