MG Taylor: I want to reinforce that we are focused on the present mission: to facilitate the safe evacuation of US Citizens, SIVs and Afghans at risk, to get these personnel out of Afghanistan as quickly and safely as possible. That mission has not changed.

Narrative:

Panic and freak out at our utter display of incompetence

Please ignore all of the military weapons, vehicles and supplies the Taliban has seized, some of which were taken to Iran

THE GOAL

REPORTER: “What happens to the billions of dollars worth of weaponry that the US gave Afghanistan? Does the US have a plan for that?”

SULLIVAN: “We don’t have a complete picture—Certainly a fair amount of it has fallen into the hands of the Taliban.".
