Biden's failure equips the Taliban

Rapid Response

The Taliban now controls billions of dollars-worth of advanced U.S. military equipment because of Joe Biden.

 Because of the botched withdrawal, the Taliban has seized helicoptersHumveesMine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles (MRAPs)drones, and even “anti-aircraft guns, armored tanks, and artillery.”

And Biden has no plan to get any of that equipment back or to keep the Taliban from seizing even more weapons. Further, reports indicate that some military equipment that did not fall into the hands of the Taliban may now be in Iran.

Yet another “contingency” the Biden administration failed to plan for.

Biden promised an orderly withdrawal. Instead, he delivered the chaotic collapse of Afghanistan, and a Taliban better equipped now than it ever has been.
