Take a look at a small snippet of what the U.S. left in Afghanistan after the embarrassing Biden withdrawal.

Tactical Composites, Bristol, R.I., developed the Small High-Speed Amphibious Role-Variant Craft through the Marine Corps’ Small Business Innovation Research program. Safe Harbor Front Street built the vessel in Belfast, Maine, and launched it for initial sea trials in April.The 37.75'x13.45' catamaran draws 2.41' and can carry up to 14,000 lbs. of cargo. An automated bow ramp allows equipment and supplies to be placed directly onto a beach or into the water.Twin 300-hp OXE diesel outboards provide a cruising speed of 20 knots and a maximum loaded speed of 25 knots in Sea State 3 conditions. Tactical Composites lists the vessel’s range at more than 1,000 nautical miles.
Just plain wow. I can't describe how outrageous this seems. Oh and I add this to the enhanced intel sharing that is being pushed with Israel. This is the type of thing that will make Israel supporters pause (at least if I'm any indication). Gotta say it again. JUST PLAIN FUCKING WOW!Two top Republicans, both originally pro-Trump, confirm the US attacked Spain using Morocco as a proxy.

You read the headline so you get my gripe.🇩🇪 @RheinmetallAG has secured a contract to supply the weapon systems for the 🇬🇧 @BritishArmy @ARTEC_BOXER RCH 155 8x8 wheeled howitzers. In May 2026, the 🇬🇧 placed an order for 72 RCH 155. Both countries are currently qualifying the 155 mm L/52 RC weapon system for the RCH 155. pic.twitter.com/BmlI2oX8z0

If you're paying attention to the war in Iran (and many Americans ain't) then you heard that Israel hit the Islamic Republic's leadership while they were attempting to elect a new Ayatollah.
Meanwhile Trump was trying to push forward on another negotiated settlement to the war.
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!
How can we expect a country to negotiate an end to hostilities if we (the US & Israel) keep knocking off their leaders?
You can't!
You can't negotiate with yourself and unless the other side has leaders then that is what you're in essence doing!
To add a twist to this mystery, Trump was promising devastating strikes to Iran's energy producing sector!
All while supposedly pushing said peace plan.
Someone explain it to me. I just don't understand the thinking here. What I do know is that the "Art Of The Deal" does not translate to the international stage.
Another thing.
I'm all for optimism. Optimism is good. But entering into somethings you need more than optimism. You need plans readily available if sugar turns to shit.
This war turned to shit and its obvious that our planning is/was lacking. We apparently only planned for best case scenarios and now that that is out the door we're in a hurtlocker.
Last thing.
We have had several cautionary tales about "allied" warfare. This is the most stark in my lifetime.
If allies are not united in goals and how those goals are to be accomplished, and if we're not willing to shoulder the entire war solo then the war should not be fought.

Rare footage of a CH-46 Sea Knight catching fire as it lifts off from the USS Bonhomme Richard on March 12, 1999. You can see just as the CH-46 lifts off the deck a fire erupt in the aft end of the helicopter and begin to spread towards those in the forward end. The helicopter… pic.twitter.com/HkJ5HtWD1a

Sorry but my views on this issue are hardening. The migration patterns we're seeing aren't natural in my opinion. I believe its being pushed and subsidized. Any entity found to be behind this needs to be prosecuted, outlawed and disbanded. This is inhumane.BREAKING: The Moroccan government used its own population in a hybrid warfare campaign against Spain during the mass invasion of the Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla.
