-General Sami Sadat Cdr AFN in #NYTimes:We were trained based on hi tech special reconnaissance units, helos & airstrikes
-Contractors played important role in war against #Taliban
-Contractors started fleeing #Afghanistan after #Biden announced date of withdrawal
-Our air support dried up & ammunition ran out
-By end Jul most of 17k contractors left
-Any tech glitch & air support would be grounded
-Contracters took software & weapons systems
-Removed helicopter missile-defense system
-Access to software to track vehicles, weapons, & personnel disappeared
-Real-time intelligence on targets dried up
-Taliban used snipers & IEDs
-ADF lost aerial & laser-guided weapon capacity

-Or successive governments & corrupt officials were incompetent
-What about other European nations
-What about #Pakistan & #China sabotaging peace
-Or it was #USA alone❓
