leigh white Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 (edited) I broke the eating is cheating mantra in Toulouse a couple of years ago, those cheese and ham baguettes were to die for at breakfast.

I was out for a meal last night with 3 lads who have been out there when we were younger. It was not a convo I wanted to bring up but know it hasn't been an easy transition to civilian life for some of them. 20 years down the drain must be a bit of a kick in the teeth!

Site Supporter only1swanny Posted August 16, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 16, 2021 Watching a film the other day "outpost". It's one of those that is based on events with a twist of dramatic license (not sure how much but I'd imagine its quite true to events as a few if the surving troops were involved on the making). Three things that stood out 1) in the film, the afghan troops had no interest in doing their job and gave up/deserted at the first sign of trouble which led to the event in the film. This has been reflected in the last few days in reality. The taliban marched into places pretty much unopposed. 2) the locals were just not to he trusted, they simply wanted the western money. 3) America simply didn't learn. The outpost was basically a fortified base surrounded on all sides by steep mountains. Terrible place for a military base and clearly a shite idea. If it hadn't been verified by veterans I'd have thought that was dramatic license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted August 16, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 16, 2021 A lot of people who have for the last 15 years had a pop at the governments of the west for sending our soldiers to die there, are now the same “experts” who say we’ve left the afghans to fend for themselves. Literally a no win situation. Save the cash, save the soldiers and let the afghans sort themselves out in the same way we have to. Its a boost to the Scottish economy as heroin will now be more affordable thus feeling up cash for beleaguered shopkeepers in inner city Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Youri McAnespie Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Extend that campaign backed by Miami to bring over the interpreters to bring over everyone, save for the Taliban and the shithouse cowards... All these unpicked crops. They'd earn their keep. Whack up more greenhouses in the south and we could use their expertise to grow opium poppies. We could become self-sufficient in smack production. Laudanum could be once again bought over the counter. Everyone could have the odd treat of a whistle and flute of brown at reasonable prices. When all the good ones are here, carpet bomb the place. I should be a fucking General, me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youri McAnespie Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 And if Laudanum was freely available, think of the savings the working parents would make regarding childcare. A small spoonful then put them to gouch out in bed, then 'McCann' off to work. They'd probably just be coming down after nine hours or so...ample time to get home for a toot for yourself.

It struck me then and still does, that the US wanted to be seen to be doing something to respond to 9/11. They could hardly attack Saudi or Egypt, where the bulk of the attackers and funds came from. Once they and the rest of the 'willing coalition' were stuck in the mire, making allies and funding all sorts of despicable folk, alienating parts of the population that they'd gone to help, it was shit or bust. Stay involved for another generation at least or pull out defeated and embarrassed. If only there had been some sort of historical precedents that the US and the allies could have learned from, to avoid getting involved in the first place.

Site Supporter Spider Posted August 16, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted August 16, 2021 The footage of the US airforce plane taking off is simply unbelievable It looks like an Indian train with about 100 blokes all clinging on.
