Citat:Turska je "dobila zadatak" od zapadnjaka da zastupa ( i da ih kontroliše ) talibane, u zamenu da "brkica" ostane na vlasti.
Sigurno su mu dali još neke "zadatke", ali videćemo kako će sve to da naplati.
Citat:Perhaps the Afghan government and its forces will prove more resilient than many expect, but if the country continues its slide toward chaos or, worse, the Taliban rapidly take Kabul, President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw a residual U.S. force will look like an amateurish, unforced error by a man who prides himself on his foreign policy experience and acumen.
With his top military leadership opposed and credible warnings that Kabul could fall within months after a withdrawal, Biden went ahead with it anyway on the basis of what an aide has called “his gut.”
So far, indications are that the president would have been better off heeding his military advisers than his viscera.
Citat:Biden says not to worry. The U.S. will continue to provide “over the horizon” support, i.e., from a distance, for the Afghan government.
This is likely a pipe dream, and nothing about Biden’s poorly thought-out drawdown lends any more credibility to it. The U.S. withdrawal has gone quickly, and thankfully, been carried out without casualties. Otherwise, it has the hallmarks of a fiasco.
Ali sa vraćanjem vojnika zbog ove sadašnje "planirane" evakuacije, rizikuju da u nekoj situaciji i to što su se bez žrtava povukli bude promijenjeno.
Inače ovo je bio plan.
Citat:
Besides the security troops, the only U.S. military personnel left to withdraw by the Sept. 11 deadline Biden set in May are Gen. Scott Miller, the commander of U.S. Forces-Afghanistan, and a handful of staff, the two officials said. U.S.
When Miller leaves, The New York Times reports, General Kenneth McKenzie will assume the authority to carry out airstrikes against al-Qaeda and the Islamic State from Tampa, Florida, “at least through August,” and have the authority to move an additional 300 troops into Afghanistan in case of emergency “at least through September.”

Uopste za SAD je bilo bitno da izvuce svoje ljude odatle, i to ide ne sumnjam bez problema. Problem i haos nastaje kada uplasena masa krene da panici opravdano naravno, njima su glave u torbi ne Amerikancima. I onda nastaju problemi. Amerikanci kao i u Sajgonu osecaju moralnu obavezu da preuzmu sto vise ljudi nego sto su planirali, ali to je realnost u ovakvoj situaciji.

Jednostavno kordinaciju izvlacenja Amerikanaca i zapadnjaka je kordinisana i marinci je redovno uvezbavaju, a radnici u ambasadama takodje, nauceni su da slusaju naredjenja koje donose oficiri. Tada se ambasador ne pita nista slusa i postupa po naredjenjima, i to ide lako. Ali ajd ti kordiniraj sa obicnim stanovnistvom zenom i decom koji su u panici.
