These marines pretend they're not pissed off
-
Imagine having to explain MULTIPLE times that you have to see the target omg
-
As a Marine, I can say that telling lies to cover up what you actually seeing is very hard. We tell things the way it is and all lies be damned.
-
These marines are incredible.. insane levels of patience
-
You can hear the frustration in the marines voices
-
Taliban seems like elite-forces compared to the afghan forces
-
I’m so glad this exists, I get to peer back 13 years into the past and see what everyone else saw in 2009, thank you to all journalists. You save our stories, the importance of that will always be greater than most will ever realize
-
I can't imagine how frustrating trying to work with Afghan forces must be.
-
Even Abu Hajaar took his job more seriously than these Afghan soldiers
-
When I was in college 2011, there was a veteran in my class. For whatever reason, he agreed to answer questions about his time. I asked him "Do you think that any of our efforts will last when we leave". He said "no I don't think they will" and the whole class went silent. Looking back I regret asking such a pointed question but it taught us the truth about these conflicts. Needless to say, I was not surprised when the government collapsed.

"Remember when we supported the Muj's against the Russians, and we left all those weapons there and we spent years and millions of dollars getting those weapons, particularly the Stinger Missiles back, we're not making the same mistake again" 2021: Lol......
-
I’ve seen nerf teams that have better coordination than these people
-
Revisiting this documentary after watching it a few years ago, and after the fall of Afghanistan. I could not possibly be less surprised about the outcome in 2021.
-
This 3 part series explained VERY WELL, in 2013 why this war was already lost.
-
When I look back over these older Vice pieces they almost always stand the test of time.
-
Only thing more dangerous than a competent enemy, is an incompetent ally.
-
This is what having a bad team on Rainbow six siege feels like
-
This video shows exactly the reason why we left Afghanistan after twenty year's being there , you can not change a people's culture ,or the mentality of a people that don't want to change it themselves , We were shooting ourselves in the foot ,, Great video !
-
Who came back to this video after seeing what's going on in Afghan since the collapse?
