Stupefying Incompetence in Afghanistan

 Nobody — evidently including Tony Blinken, Austin, and Milley — thought about blowing stuff up before we left. It’s amateur hour in the State Department, Pentagon, and White House.

Stupefying Incompetence in Afghanistan | The American Spectator | USA News and Politics  "President Biden, his cabinet, and his advisers all continue to display a stupefying level of incompetence in Afghanistan that clearly flows down from the president.
"On Wednesday, Biden said, “The idea that somehow there’s a way to have gotten out without chaos ensuing, I don’t know how that happens.” That’s obvious from the way he has handled Afghanistan since his inauguration. He also said the withdrawal from Afghanistan couldn’t have been handled better.
"I can only assume from Biden’s conduct and Wednesday statements that Pentagon leaders such as Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Mark Milley didn’t insist on doing it the way any sensible person would.
"Any competent plan, which obviously excludes anything coming out of this clown car, would require that you’d evacuate the civilians first. Then you’d ship out as much of our weapons and equipment as you could and then — only then — would you withdraw the troops after they’d blown up the embassy (about which more in a minute).". . .
