April 9Apr 9 I was surprised when we didn’t leave in 2011, and surprised when we did leave in 2021. Not surprised we’re going back though…we love doing that kind of thing. Edited April 9Apr 9 by StrikeOut312 corrected a typo

April 10Apr 10 Taliban say reoccupation of Bagram is not happening (fun propaganda video included). OSINT accounts also disputing the claim using Google satellite imagery. Always possible secret discussions are ongoing, but lacking any secondary confirmation this remains a single source claim.
September 18Sep 18 https://www.foxnews.com/world/trump-us-trying-get-bagram-airbase-back-from-taliban-afghanistan I hope the Bagram Ice Cream guy can get his job back at the chow hall if we go back. Does anyone have a picture of him that they could post? That guy had the most hateful, combat-hardened look on his face that I've ever seen. But the ice cream was tasty!

September 18Sep 18 Well, for one, that would give us a chance to get back the $7 to $10 billion worth of US military equipment left in Afghanistan following the chaotic withdrawal in August 2021 thanks to Biden!! 78+ aircraft, including helicopters and fixed-wing planes 12,000+ Humvees 42,000+ trucks Up to 22,000 additional vehicles including armored units Over 350,000 rifles and small arms 64,000+ machine guns 126,000+ pistols Nearly 200 artillery units Night vision gear Surveillance and biometric devices Explosive ordinance disposal tools Communications and encryption systems The Taliban has reportedly repaired and showcased some of the aircraft and vehicles in parades, and has even sold weapons to countries like Russia, Iran, North Korea, and China! Now tell me again which was the more inept Commander in Chief?!?

September 18Sep 18 It's very difficult for me to imagine a world/scenario where going back to that filthy shithole and dumping more of our blood and treasure into the dirt there would be a good idea.

But I wouldn’t be opposed to the bomber bros wiping things off the map when required from time to time (huge terrorist training camps, etc.) No basing in country though for sure.

Around August 30th would be good. The Taliban like to have a big parade with most of their leadership in the bleachers.

September 20Sep 20 We'd be better off negotiating for a base in Pak, Uzbek, Kyrg, or even Tajik. Fuck AFG.

September 22Sep 22 Did they violate some part of this agreement? Or are we invalidating it? https://www.state.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Agreement-For-Bringing-Peace-to-Afghanistan-02.29.20.pdf
September 22Sep 22 Rumor has it the Taliban want a billion a year and the US offered $300 million a year. Didn’t realize we left so much equipment during the withdrawal.

While there was a decent chunk of no kidding “our vehicles” left behind when we un-assed Kabul, the majority of the numbers you see are what we outfitted the: ANA, ANP, ANSOF, etc over the two decades we were there.
