From the Time article Hooter posted:

“Biden Administration officials routinely argued that Afghanistan’s 300,000-plus troops and police, which the U.S. has spent at least $84 billion to train and equip, vastly outnumbered the estimated 75,000 Taliban fighters. They pointed to Afghanistan’s air force of attack planes and helicopters, which were also paid for by the U.S., as well as the firepower and heavy weaponry.

In the end, though, not one piece of this multibillion-dollar arsenal, which now all belongs to the Taliban, could replace the willingness to fight or the instinct for survival, as Afghan troops saw that fellow soldiers who surrendered to the militants were allowed to live and those who fought were often brutally executed.“

Hellfire, 300k with American weaponry to 75k with shoulder rockets and old Aks? Good Lord!!

Every minute there was wasted.  Those people didn’t want to fight.

It all boils down they just wanted our money and the corporations wanted their money.

Exactly!! The Military Industrial complex thrived for 20 years while poor Americans who were recruited to fight in this money grab and the American taxpayer got screwed.
