In September 2021 Joe Biden surrendered to the Taliban, armed them with over $80 billion in US equipment and weapons, abandoned US citizens and green card holders on the ground, and fled the country.
Biden left Bagram Air Base in the middle of the night. The Taliban emptied the prison there days later and one of the prisoners blew up 13 American military men and women at the Kabul airport during the airlift.
Before fleeing Afghanistan in a rush last fall Joe Biden armed the Taliban terrorist organization with apporximately $80 billion in US weapons. The White House and Pentagon have never admitted to how many billion dollars worth of weapons they left behind for the Islamist group.

Much of the information included in the above list is public record.
A February 2022 report by American Military News revealed that up to 9,000 Americans were left behind in Afghanistan to fend for themselves against the Taliban after Joe Biden surrendered, fled the country and left over $80 billion in US military arms for the Taliban terrorists.
The previous reporting estimated around 14,000 Americans were still in the country back in November 2020.
Biden never lifted a finger to rescue these people after he fled the country.
Biden also filled planes with 100,000 unvettted Afghans and flew them to America.
The Telegraph this weekend reported on the traumatized British pilots who were caught up in Joe Biden’s historic surrender to the Taliban barbarians.
It will go down as one of the greatest foreign policy blunders in global history. Just as it was planned to be.
Why are they telling their story? It’s partly, one commander tells me, because one of the hardest things about coping with the events of August 2021 has been the fact that people knew so little about “how much responsibility and risk was resting with us”. “A lot of people just thought [it was like] we were going to Heathrow airport and back.”
It’s also part of a wider effort to open up the Ministry of Defence and, in doing so, “take more risk”. The MoD has doubled its social media following since the invasion of Ukraine. Meanwhile, sources say programmes like this one give them the opportunity to speak to audiences they “might not necessarily reach by other means”, with Evacuation seeing the “most active engagement” from the MoD in a documentary to date.
Sqn Ldr Bird, 43, recalls the moment the crowds stormed the airfield, “swarming towards us”. “One of the RAF Movements teams came in and said ‘ma’am, you need to come out and look at this’. I walked out of my office and there was just a sea of people. A lot of them were heavily armed. They were saying ‘we need help, we need to be evacuated’. Some of them were telling us they’d had to fight their way to the airport.”
The military eventually managed to clear the taxiway, but in any normal circumstances it would still have been considered too dangerous to land an aircraft. These were not normal circumstances.
