I can't stress enough how ashamed I am of the USA right now.
The Taliban has more territory now than it did on 911.
Prior to 911 the north was a holdout. It looks like in the last day or two the Taliban has successfully breached its mountain range and gained even more territory, in part using weapons that we put there over the past twenty years. American, Afghani, and allied lives lost. And $2.3 Trillion apparently on afghanistan.
Al Queda's ass was kicked early on, but then they stayed to nation build. And when that got boring Bush lied (yes, he did lie) and brought us into Iraq, therefore responsible for thousands of more deaths and a couple trillion more lost. I still believe that bush, cheney, powell, rumsfeld should have been brought up on charges for what they did pushing the iraq war narrative. They were painting an inaccurate picture.
We do not ever, and will not now hold politicians responsible for these negligent actions. Losing office is not enough. Negligence has to have repercussions, surely?

State Department: US Powerless To Stop Taliban From Grounding Planes
After promising to evacuate all American citizens from Afghanistan, the State Department said there is little it can do to help planes grounded by the Taliban.
“We do not have personnel on the ground, we do not have air assets in the country, we do not control the airspace — whether over Afghanistan or elsewhere in the region,” a State Department spokesman told the Washington Free Beacon. “We understand the concern that many people are feeling as they try to facilitate further charter and other passage out of Afghanistan.”

Taliban announces leader, first ministers in new Afghan government
Military leader Sirajuddin Haqqani, who heads the Haqqani network, will serve as acting interior minister. The network has been designated as a terrorist organisation by the United States.

'Sirajuddin Haqqani, who was on the US terrorist list, is now the "interior minister" of the Taliban government' Let that sink in. He's still on the FBI most wanted list for terrorism.
The FBI offers $5 million for information leading to the arrest of Haqqani, whose group has deep ties to al-Qaida. He is accused of organizing a 2008 bombing at the Kabul Serena Hotel that killed six people, including an American, and an assassination attempt on then-Afghan president Hamid Karzai. (RELATED: Taliban Announces Leadership Of New Government, Which Says It Will ‘Uphold Sharia’)“Relations between the Taliban, especially the Haqqani Network, and al-Qaida remain close, based on friendship, a history of shared struggle, ideological sympathy and intermarriage,” a United Nations (UN) Security Council report published in May 2020 found. According to the report, “the Taliban regularly consulted with al–Qaida during negotiations with the United States and offered guarantees that it would honor their historical ties.”
FBI-Most-Wanted Terrorist, NYT Op-Ed Writer Named Taliban’s Interior Minister
Sirajuddin Haqqani, the leader of the U.S.-designated terrorist group Haqqani Network, was named the Taliban's Interior Minister on Tuesday.

Taliban Holds Up Glenn Beck Group's Planes; At Least 100 Americans Among Passengers
Six private charter planes seeking to evacuate at least 1,000 people—including more than 100 Americans—out of Afghanistan have been grounded by the Taliban amid negotiations with the U.S. State Department, an official with an NGO working on the evacuation told Newsweek.
The would-be passengers have yet to board the planes in the city of Mazar-i-Sharif, which were chartered by Mercury One, a charity founded by Christian conservative media personality Glenn Beck.
Three other evacuation flights—two on a plane chartered by international development organization Sayara, and one by Goldbelt, Inc., an Alaska Native corporation—were also grounded by the Taliban awaiting clearance. According to a second senior NGO official, Sayara is set to carry 700 passengers, at least 19 of whom are Americans.
