I think everyone wanted Afghanistan to not give up immediately and surrender to the Taliban. Fighting spirit like Ukraine.

Almost 20 years of military training and equipment and they did nothing. I get there was probably family on the other side, but the military basically gave up on the dreams of the Afghan women.

We should (the west as this is not just on the states) have armed and trained the women and not the failsons.
