Are they counting janitors? That's a huge number. How is that even possible?
I'm not doctrinaire about that. Are we clearly sure who did it?
Not knowing whodunnit "for sure" was a major factor in the US deciding not to retaliate in Lebanon in 1983.

why not count janitors?
At the end of the day the person most responsible blew themself up in the process. But some think it would be great if we stay longer and expose ourselves to more of these fanatics.
about 12,500 people yesterday
Well, apparently ISIS owned it already.
"Apparently"
Do we know for sure they did it, or are they just braggarts?
complicating factor: even if ISIS did it, what right does the US have to operate militarily in another country to retaliate against non-state actors? what if Venezuela were to attack the US in retaliation for Silvercorp's comical 2019 coup attempt?
would that be justified?
US foreign policy in the last 70 years has been "justified" through the lack of consequences, ie, what are you gonna do about it, cambodia?
might makes right, absolutely.
but it's fun to watch people tie themselves up in knots trying to justify brute force.
Dead marines ok now
And thats remembered forever as a big asswhiping by terrorists on US. Same thing yesterday. Will be remembered as a monumental asskicking of US while we were escaping nonetheless. Kicking a dog when its down
Janitors are most likely cleaning Taliban poop right now. Life goes on
Pretty amazing given the cir stances.
Are there lives in danger for that? Really?
said no one except you
dunno, but wouldn't surprise me a bit. the US is not well liked in Afghanistan.
“We will hunt you down and make you pay”
lol hyperbole
Ex-Pence Aide: Stephen Miller’s “Racist Hysteria” Made It Harder for Afghan Allies to Get Visas
the Trump administration made it much harder for Afghans who worked with the U.S. to apply and receive what is known as a special immigrant visa, or SIV.
Oliva Troye, a former top aide to Mike Pence who resigned in protest, has
placed the blame on Trump’s xenophobic adviser Stephen Miller, saying he peddled “racist hysteria”
in White House meetings about bringing Afghan allies to the U.S.
“Stephen Miller would say, 'Well, these are terrorist cells in the making if you bring them here,'”
“I know for a fact that the Trump administration was planning this withdrawal for several years,” says Troye.
“Why were they not actively prioritizing this population so that we wouldn’t be in the situation we’re in today?”

...Ya think, you idiot, you. That (13) trusted and confided in these animals is criminal.
Very much what I expected him say. Sleepy Joe is like that.
