What Was Left Behind

CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY AUGUST 25, 2021

         WHILE THE HUMAN CONSEQUENCES FROM OUR UNILATERAL SURRENDER TO THE TALIBAN IN

AFGHANISTAN WILL BE LONG-TERM, WITH PERHAPS MORE TERRORIST ATTACKS AGAINST US AND OTHER

COUNTRIES, THERE IS ALSO THE EQUIPMENT WE HAVE LEFT BEHIND. OUR ENEMIES WILL ALSO USE THIS

AGAINST US AND OTHER COUNTRIES,

         PRESIDENT BIDEN HAS EFFECTIVELY SUPPLIED THE TALIBAN AND THEIR ISLAMIST ACCOMPLICES WITH

SEVERAL YEARS WORTH OF U.S. EQUIPMENT. THE ESTIMATED VALUE IS $85 BILLION, WHICH WE

TAXPAYERS PAID FOR.

         AS THE GATEWAY PUNDIT REPORTED ON SUNDAY, BIDEN LEFT 300 TIMES MORE GUNS THAN THOSE

PASSED TO THE MEXICAN CARTELS IN OBAMA’S FAILED FAST AND FURIOUS PROGRAM.

         THE EQUIPMENT LIST INCLUDES HELICOPTERS, CARS, VANS. PICKUPS, DRONES, EVEN FOUR C-130S.

         THE LIST DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL THE EXTRA NONLETHAL EQUIPMENT, SUCH AS MEALS READY TO

EAT, MEDICAL EQUIPMENT AND EVEN ENERGY DRINKS.

         WE ALSO LEFT WADS OF CASH BEHIND. THE TALIBAN HAVE BEEN POSTING PICTURES OF PALLETS OF

MONEY ON SOCIAL MEDIA.

         THIS IS A DISASTER ANY WAY YOU CUT IT AND WE WILL PAY A PRICE HIGHER THAN THE LIVES AND

EQUIPMENT WE LOST WHEN TERRORISM RESUMES. I’M CAL THOMAS.
