You fucking dipshit nonce, you’re the one who ordered it abandoned in the first place!
(Addressing Trump, not OP, obviously.)
What bad things will happen? Trump will continue to drive the U.S. to fascism? He’ll continue to not release the pedophiles here’s names in? He’ll continue to breathe?
Saudi Arabia has an alliance with Pakistan, including using nuclear weapons response in Saudi Arabia’s defense.
If Israel attacks Saudi Arabia, Pakistan responds. This airport is only a couple hundred miles from the Pakistan border and an excellent place for the US to intercept any response from Pakistan headed towards Israel.
Almost like a complete and total withdrawal form Afghanistan was a terrible idea.
USA. Global defence and offense just for Israel. Weird.
All of it sounds horrible, stop it! 😭
Born too early to fight in Afghanistan Born too late to fight in Afghanistan Born just in time to fight in Afghanistan
Which side?
Does it even matter? Bible thumping Y’all-Qaeda vs quran-thumping Al-Qaeda.
Yes, REALLY BAD THINGS will happen! I’ll impose a TWO WEEK DEADLINE! To another TWO WEEK DEADLINE, extended indefinitely!! Or I’ll make the locals pay more for their food! (Our locals that is, not yours.) THAT’LL SHOW YOU!!!
What would the US even want it for? Staging?
Saudi Arabia has an alliance with Pakistan, including using nuclear weapons as a response in Saudi Arabia’s defense.
If Israel attacks Saudi Arabia, Pakistan responds. Bagram airport is only a couple hundred miles from the Pakistan border and an excellent place for the US to intercept any response from Pakistan headed towards Israel.
i wonder if china will get involved indirectly, since china and pakistan also are friends, and helped developed thier nukes.
It’s a pretty good place to launch planes and stuff to keep an eye on China.
We’re going back boys!
Return it how? Have it shipped? If you wanted it so bad, why would you put it halfway round the world?
Just pack it all into a nice, compact brick of debris and ship it to the White House.
Not this shit again.

Was this base the one that trimp had us pull out of right after Biden took office and everyone blamed Biden for the messy withdrawal?

Yes, that is the exact airbase that Epstein's close friend Donald Trump created a hasty withdrawl plan for that occured entirely in Biden's administration.
That Epstein's close friend Donald Trump now apparently wants back. Like the Chinese haven't paid the Taliban for every single piece of US hardware left behind.

Yep, and I don’t know how he’s planning on getting the Taliban to give that base back.
