As we watch the Taliban roll through Afghanistan in a matter of weeks, since the US ended operations there, I'm wondering where are the Afghan forces? How can the Afghan National Army be so inept?
We spent billions and billions of dollars to equip, train, and build bases for the ANA. Where the hell are they? There where supposedly several hundred thousand well equiped troops, plus aircraft. Even with the Taliban being supplied be Russia, Pakistan, and Iran, it is with small arms that the Taliban is doing this "lightning advance" through the provinces. How is it that there seems to be no resistance put up from government forces?
After all that was invested there in American lives and resources, it is so upsetting to see the Taliban just walk through and take it all back so quickly.
