All equipment to be used against the U.S., who they have played... Of course, when the equipment breaks down over time, who will repair it? This administration's failure to remove or destroy this equipment will bite us hard over the coming days, weeks, months & years... Stay safe people...

I was listening to an interview of President Trump about the equipment. He stated there are twenty-eight (28), BRAND NEW Apache helicopters that were left behind. Of course the Chinese will utilize ALL of the designs and hack the electronics gear for their own use, AND to adversely affect what's in our various aircraft, etc.
He also stated that the administration claiming they have used, and/or have said Trump's agreement, "tied their hands," is totally false. He reminded the host that for EIGHTTEEN MONTHS, there were ZERO combat casualties in Afghanistan; until the 13 recent KIA's. He said when his administration bargained with the Taliban, they were told that we were withdrawing; BUT ... warned their head guy that if ONE SINGLE American was killed during the drawdown, Afghanistan would suffer THE MOST HORRIFIC bombing in history - STARTING WITH THE TOP GUY's OWN VILLAGE. Hence, no combat casualties for our troops.
He also noted that the Chairman Joint Chiefs said, "It's cheaper to just leave everything behind," whereupon Trump told him he was an IDIOT and that just aircraft alone were BILLIONS of dollars, and flying 200 pilots there to retrieve the aircraft, could NOT be more expensive than leaving them. He also said he wanted EVERY piece of equipment taken back to allied areas, "every nut and bolt," etc.
I seriously doubt that any of the choppers, arty, tanks, planes, etc ... were all "demilitarized," other than perhaps a very few.
