the weaponry was left to the Kabul regime forces but they just fled and left their choppers and hummers behind.
the government forces lacked the will to fight the Taliban Freedom Fighter Patriots have.

The Taliban are not fighting at the moment against the US but the Quisling regime, they just want Americans to leave why would they hamper it?
Bhenghazi was just a fuck up. the homo ambassdor was on secret CIA mission in a CIA safe house making weapon and other deals with jihadists who were supposed to be shipped in Syria to fight against Assad. The Jihadists then got pissed off because the US didn't follow the deal that included the release of an imprisoned Islamic cleric, if memory serves he was called the Blind Sheikh …
so the angry jihadists stormed the Clown safe house and killed couple of CIA contractors … the cavalry couldn't come to help because it was a covert Clown op, arming terrrorists is not done overtly. In the congressional hearings which were mostly posturing the main issue was carefully evaded.
sad to say, but while the women are not strikingly different looking, I'm not convinced at all that they are the same
flares? can't say … maybe it's a COMM about spreading LIGHT and dropping TRUTH BOMBS

if that was so how was the stand down supposed to prevent the reshipment of weapons

apparently it was put in good use in Afghanistan
A heavily armed U.S. gunship designed to provide added firepower to Special Operations forces was responsible for shooting and killing 22 people at a Doctors Without Borders hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan, over the weekend, Pentagon officials said Monday.
The attack occurred in the middle of the night Saturday, when Afghan troops and a U.S. Special Forces team training and advising them were on the ground near the hospital in Kunduz, the first major Afghan city to fall to the Taliban since the war began in 2001. The top U.S. general in Afghanistan said Monday the airstrike was requested by Afghan troops who had come under fire, contradicting earlier statements from Pentagon officials that the strike was ordered to protect U.S. forces on the ground.

the China is coming to help Afghanistan in reconstruction and infrastructure bulding, and the Taliban is committed to provide security to them, said the Army think tank RAND.
China is quietly attempting to secure its interests in post-U.S. Afghanistan. Beijing has reportedly been actively engaging with Kabul on construction of the Peshawar-Kabul motorway, which would connect Pakistan to Afghanistan and make Kabul a participant in China's massive infrastructure and investment plan, the Belt and Road Initiative. Up until now, Kabul has resisted participation in the initiative to avoid getting on the wrong side of Washington. Beijing is also building a major road through the Wakhan Corridor—a slim strip of mountainous territory connecting China's westernmost province of Xinjiang to Afghanistan—and onward to Pakistan and Central Asia, complementing its existing road network through the region. Once completed, these new thoroughfares should enable Beijing to pursue its goals of increased trade with the region and natural resource extraction in Afghanistan. According to a 2014 report, Afghanistan may possess nearly a trillion dollars' worth of extractable rare-earth metals locked within its mountains.
In the absolute best-case scenario, the Afghan government and the Taliban might share power, but that seems increasingly like wishful thinking.
But in order to access these benefits, Afghanistan must first become stable and secure. With a Taliban takeover looming, China received some good news two weeks ago: Taliban spokesman Suhail Shaheen said in an interview that “China is a friendly country and we welcome it for reconstruction and developing Afghanistan…if [the Chinese] have investments, of course we will ensure their safety.” Moreover, on the sensitive issue of whether the Taliban might support alleged Uyghur militants against China in neighboring Xinjiang, Shaheen noted, “We care about the oppression of Muslims, be it in Palestine, in Myanmar, or in China, and we care about the oppression of non-Muslims anywhere in the world. But what we are not going to do is interfere in China's internal affairs.” These words were clearly intended to please Beijing, which appears to be starting off on exactly the right foot with the Taliban should the group regain control over Afghanistan.

nothing … but maybe they could purchase poppy harvest for the pharmaceutical industry.
Legal poppy cultivation is needed for instance the UK has legal poppy fields

The Opium Wars (simplified Chinese: 鸦片战争; traditional Chinese: 鴉片戰爭) were two wars waged between the Qing dynasty and Western powers in the mid-19th century. The First Opium War, fought in 1839–1842 between Qing China and Great Britain, was triggered by the dynasty's campaign against the British merchants who sold opium in China. The Second Opium War was fought between the Qing and Britain and France, 1856–1860. In each war, the European force's modern military technology led to easy victory over the Qing forces, with the consequence that the government was compelled to grant favorable tariffs, trade concessions, reparations and territory to the Europeans.
–
if memory serves, the Brits took the Hong Kong as their base for their opium businesses
China was the biggest economy in the world until late 1700s but the industrial revolution allowed the West overtake it.
and since 2015, 2916 China is again the biggest economy.

>Ya, it is interesting read.. but I wonder what the repercussions of taking on faulty CCP infrastructure and debt enslavement is going to do to their relationship long term. Not to mention, can CCP really finance more spending with all their natural disasters and already failing infrastructure?
debt enslavement actually happened to the developing economies with the Western IMF World Bank programs, the Chines debt enslavement seems to be more like propagana bogeyman … I don't know any example of that besides maybe there where some problems with Ceylon port projects, if memory serves …
Chinese faulty infrastructure … watch some youtube videos on Cyberpunk cities in China, or fast speed railroads …
are the antivaxx people Russian/Chinese/Iranian malign actors?
the DHS thinks that they often are
Who are the primary malign
actors associated with the
spreading of COVID-related
disinformation?
Russian, Chinese and Iranian state-
sponsored elements, as well as
domestic extremist groups.
What are these malign actors
trying to accomplish by spreading
disinformation? Their goal is creating
chaos, confusion and division. They
also want to degrade confidence in U.S.
institutions, which in turn undermines
our ability to respond effectively to the
pandemic.
Who else is spreading
disinformation? Scammers, cyber
criminals and con artists are also
taking advantage of fears
surrounding COVID-19. They
promote questionable awareness
and prevention tips, as well as fake
information about cases in your
neighborhood. They may ask for
donations, offer advice on unproven
treatments or spread malicious
email attachments.
How is false information spread?
All kinds of false information are
spread through a variety of mediums,
including mainstream media, social
media, word of mouth, online forums,
texts and emails. When people share
disinformation, they may be unaware
of the true source of a link or email.
What can our state and local officials
tell their constituents about stopping
disinformation? Core messaging should
emphasize that “we’re all in this together”
and that “disinformation stops with you.”
Basic tips to include are:
• Rely on trusted sources such as
the CDC and your health
department. For situational updates
on COVID-19 and stay-at-home
guidelines, rely on state and local
health officials.
• Think twice before sharing
content online.
• Be careful about posting
personal information.
• Be on the lookout for content
that seems manipulative or overly
emotional.
• Report scams to appropriate
federal agencies, such as the Federal
Trade Commission or state consumerprotection agencies.
