Any part of this that isnt political theater? Where are the factual military testimony that says where we went wrong? The specifics. Not this emotional garbage.
This is all the MAGA Trumpublicans can do, period.
Trump folded the Afghan Republic like a business. Shut down all the bases, stop air support, supply, they destroy our communication. Americans took the keys to the cars and we could not travel to Bagram. Biden gives money to Talibs today.
Best thing to do is not sign yourself up and fight for those corrupt politicians
Amen. Don't sign up to give your life for a country that counts you as a number and a talking point for politicians and sometimes mention your name 2 holidays a year.
NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD AGREE. BACK IN 82' IT WAS DIFFERENT. WOULD NOT SIGN UP NOW
We REALLY need to clean house. It’s worse than a swamp. It’s quicksand where people & problems simply disappear. 😢😢
Like Israel.
@@bennysoda4101 wow no the best thing to do is actually deliberate and not just listen to the corporate news . So don't feel defeated.
After 20 years, stuck in a quagmire, dude, (Navy Seal), the U.S. had to get out.! Trying to plan for the unknown is frigging impossible!
Thank you for your service and I really mean this, for me when Trump released 5000 criminals back to the Taliban, he actually invited the Taliban to camp David! What a traitor to our country
@@laurabealmear9293lol he's not a seal
We need hearings on the illegal US invasion of Afghanistan, not the withdrawal.
My heart is broken
@@hastalavista723please say what you're laughing at......
HOW many congressman are suppose to be on this committee, It looks like like 6 people there.
The number of empty chairs speaks volumes.
We fought and still fight in Panjshir. We had no ammunitions, communication and water. We used our phones and Facebook for command. Then Facebook block our profiles for hate speech and no more commands could be given.
Seriously holy heck you can be tracked down by gps.oh my word never use your phone..lord..take the battery out. They can turn it on. If you don't..
@@wytrose4602 we move to new cities.
This makes the withdrawal from Saigon in 1975 look organized, safe and well-executed.
Because it was
Yes
It was but Joe was in office one day and trump left this all up in the air because he thought his coup would work. This can’t be blamed on Joe.
You obviously weren't around for that one or you would know the withdrawal from Saigon was much worse. I can't imagine how ugly it would have been if USA citizens had been there and waited for the day of the withdrawal to try and get out.
@@D4L_457Millions of people disagree with you. Brandon is the new sheriff in town, and he could have told them that we'll leave when we're ready. He cancelled practically all of Trump's other policies. He could have postponed this exit.
God bless all our brothers and sisters in uniform including their families.
When their country called on them, service rightfully was answered with duty.
"Too bad" is a huge understatement of the reality. The blatant ignorance and assumed arrogance of this incompetent so called President caused the death of many. He should be held accountable for the losses. His goal was to hit a deadline rather than safely and methodically remove US involvement using the highest level of intelligence available. biden politics and his own history of failure and 'need' for power produced this disastrous result that will forever haunt America. @bennysoda4101
The suites totally let the Boots down on that Aug day!
I can't listen to Crow anymore... God Bless the Gold Star Families♥️🇺🇸🌹
He left those weapons on purpose under direction from China
This is worth listening to
Then you have the wounded warrior program taking care of our soldiers, instead of a military va hospitals. programs
Bush 1 and 2 started this war.
Keep up, turned out Wounded Warriors was a scam. Haven't you noticed you don't see their ads everywhere anymore and you don't hear much about them either.
@@dixieporter2960 I know at first there was a former General that headed the program up. He was doing some good work but he was also paying himself quite a bit of money. When he was challenged on it he stepped down. The program went on for a while but that was the last I heard of it.
@kimhorton6109 Sounds right. I know I was disappointed because I donated to them. That was before every other commercial was one of theirs. When a nonprofit runs that many commercials, it's a safe bet it's a scam.
Leaving Afghanistan was going to be horrible no matter who was in charge.
Exactly shouldn’t have been on that soil In the first place
Agreed, however proper planning could've made it much less than it turned out to be.
No it wouldn't if we had proper leadership and direction then this would've never happened and our 13 would be 0
You can't prove a negative
@@ScttTee
@@yung_megafoneproper planning? Like having a plan to leave before agreeing to? Hrmm, wonder whos responsibility that might be.
The same thing happened when we left Viet Nam, brother. War is sloppy far too often. But the Largest question, is: Why aren’t we working 24/7, to sit down to negotiate PEACE, throughout the world ? (Because THAT is what everyone in the world MUST DO !!)
YEP, NO PLAN JUST HASTE
1,448 US soldiers were killed on the last day in Vietnam.
Trump did that
Like a domestic violence relationship when one person decides to leave it’s the most dangerous time…the lack of a proper plan in is shocking for most people. Not just America. We all paid a terrible price. This hearing is so important
DIAN: A PROPER MDMP MILITARY DECISION MAKING PLAN WOULD HAVE BEEN SAFE. NEVER LET SOLDIERS BE DEPLOYED UNDER STATE DEPARTMENT, THIS WILL ALWAYS HAPPEN
Thank you Air Force
Theatre
Hindsight is 20/20, but everyone knew this was a terrible and chaotic idea the moment they announced it. How they haven't had to answer for it and apologize for such a royal failure and loss of life is beyond me. I know we don't like to admit our mistakes because we are America and it makes us look weak, but that is the least of our problems at this point
this surrender, and ALL the LEFTIST controlling everything; is an international failure.
Seeing the video of the horrific withdrawal says it all. It was extremely poorly executed. If this ever happened during the Korean war, I would have been angry and being a Korean, we tend to hold our grudges until we explode. Enough is enough when it comes to ruining innocent lives for political reasons 😡
Wish you knew the full story of this operation. Trust me
God bless America.Thank you for the sacrifice of your loved ones.I am humbled and honored by your children ,granchildren,husbands wives,brothers,sisters,nieces,nephews,cousins,friends loved ones who laid down their lives for all Americans.The ultimate gift to humanity to continue cherishing the values of FREEDOM and LIBERTY ,we must acknowledge and revere our HEROES.The AMERICAN PATRIOTS who died for our privileges are to be celebrated their lives are important,meaningful and respected.God bless them and their loved ones.I do not know any of these PATRIOTS personally but I live my life in this wonderful country because of their service I take their sacrifice very seriously.We live because they died serving our country.They will never be forgotten so help me God.
You forgot the dogs....
Amen 🙏. Freedom is a precious commodity which so many Americans could never fathom because they’ve never endured what we had to endure without showing any emotion.
Its infuriating to see the utter disrespect for members of this committee when they look at their phones and not listen to people! I think all phones should be turned off !!!!
Crow, Kim, and Dean doing their best to take the heat off of pass-the-buck Joe.
They had to leave all that Equipment there for the Beast Army. ( just as the did in Iraq & Lebanon )
One minute in and Mr Mast has paid more respect to the service members/families then biden did in the last 2 years since this happened
Trump was all in on getting the troops out before he got out of office...he failed...Biden did not have the political courage to put troops back in to do and orderly withdraw.....
By doing this performative speech?
Partisan theater does not honor anyone. Using dead bodies for political agendas shows an utter disrespect for those who passed.
We need to demand that we stop using our military as political props. Something Obama and Trump are guilty of.
When Obama was setting a deadline all these same people were saying "you don't tell your enemy when you're leaving" now that the enemy wasn't told the US was leaving they say "you left too fast". This is all nonsense.
wrong, turn the channel
@vinny...2280; You're wrong, Mr. Mast paid more respects than biden has in his whole life time
Now stefonic is a military genius
1,448 US soldiers were killed on their last day in Vietnam. WE Lost 13 the last day of Afghanistan. Both were evacuations at end of war with those countries.
"Brace yourself. The American Empire is over. And the descent is going to be [is] horrifying." -- Chris Hedges -- 'America: The Farewell Tour'
This is so difficult for me to watch. If it weren’t for the military in Korea, I would have died at a young age. I know the military personnel took advantage of Koreans but they allowed orphans to be free to be adopted worldwide so we could be free. If everyone only knew how much we endured before being adopted, they would truly appreciate their freedom 🥲
Thank you for sharing your story with us. I’m sorry to hear about the struggle you had in Korea. I truly wish that could’ve been a better experience for you! I am grateful you are now able to experience freedom. You are beautiful, and I wish you the very best in your endeavors!
were are the Generals , i would think they should be there to testify
Exactly cause it sounds like opens not facts.
The was the MAGAs thesewere the witnessess they hand picked, to serve their narritive as always at least this time they were not stupid enough to call them ''whistle-blowers'', but one was doing a pretty good book selling. Should have setup a table in the lobby.
@@D4L_457 do you mean opinions not facts
? yes that is a fact, you are correct.
Terms of reference for this inquiry?
Oh I'm sorry, did you miss the whole video?
BIDEN should be hed accountable to VIET NAM, and the other war he mentioned, but didn't include the helicopter evac
Why all the blame game
Who fcking idea was it to leave a company of soldiers behind?
The past century of war should never have happened
Yep
I'm glad the investigation is still ongoing. Someone has to pay.
The best thing a president has done but It should have happened earlier.
You left accordingly
Way to wait years to "investigate." Horrible and irrepressible to not address this sooner. Now the question is whether anything but talking about it will happen.
Yes, this was a catastrophe... Yes, this was chaotic and a failure. It was a complete and total loss.
I’m the one who requested the leave
True dat.
sorry
The politician that let the Taliban out of jail hopefully they get the orange baboon and his administration
Oh ms Titus stop
Wow
Christopher Kolenda need to be investigated!!!
No helicopters
TEAMERICA , The World is in awe of your commitment to War
We are not in awe to americas commitment to war
@@skibbatrixadonanor to satire.
Life that is lost on his watch I don't understand
What's the end game?
Why is no one talking about the orders to stand down, to the snipers that could have stopped the bomber? Who ordered that? Who decided to give them millions in weapons? Temp has a plan and the haters wanted to do anything opposite of his plan just for spite! Sickening!
Can anyone tell me how that precipitous withdrawal was not treasonous? Anybody?
How come Tim Kennedy hasn't came in front of the committee to elaborate on the ngo missions he's been on to Afghanistan after the withdrawal in August of 2021 and has brought back over 17000 Americans on c17 planes he's using via private rich donors ?
54:10 MOST GANGSTER STATEMENT EVER. #ColtWasNeverHere
🦓🦓🦓🦓🙄🙄🙄🙄
So did I I made the United States leave when I stepped in the stock market
How does US plan to ditch Ukraine 🇺🇦?
It's even worse disaster than Afghanistan. US is planning without any diplomacy at all. Why?
Appropriate word is a bloody nose my good man man
Air Force you mean
❤ stephanik
CHAIRMAN you don't SWEAR THEM IN!!
Why does the Americans think that its a good idea to invade a country change their laws and way of life to make it resembles the USA, when that all goes against the Afghan's ways of living and life and totally goes against the Afghan's culture and religion, the same goes with North Korea, Iraq, Syria etc
WALTZ you should be ashamed using the Gold Star Families as a Political Stunt, it is unacceptable. WALTZ will be out of that seat in 5 minutes, opp he's all ready gone.
Are these servicemen naming names, with intent to prosecute or
have them removed from service?
When I hear the pitiable excuses, and worse, blame a President, it sounds like a deliberate effort to not hold superior officers' dereliction of duty. Will they appear as witnesses?
Those kids that fell off the plane and citizens was a nightmare.
only 3 or 4 congressman inthe room and this is a JOKE, be present, both sides, be present or pass on the appointments.
this is right after CRANE's sickness crap.
COME ON CONGRESSMAN!!! THE MILITARY INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX NEEDS A NEW BOOGIE MAN!
Who is it that released all those prisoners over There wasn’t it your buddy Trump
~50 people still die per day from old munitions and mines if the vietnam region :/
Depressing corruption.
Our government stabbed us and friends that are Afghanis. Dead inside for anyone that was attached to this
the U.S. gov has been doing that since 1776
You know what kills someone to have that much power and that much money do not have a heart on live Lowe's on his watch
I said to get you involved
Where sre the bodies of the 13? They must get full military burial honors.
sorry 1983 u known
USA left Afghanistan in terrible shape to do the same in Ukraine... what a coincidence? NOT
Not our fault most afgans won't fight for there own country we didn't give it up the afgans gave up the moment we left
Saigon number 2
The truth is finally coming out as the swamp is drained some more.
God bless these gold star families.
The spokeswoman for the president does what she's supposed to do and that is to do what they tell her to say do you know that
The Trump administration in February 2020 negotiated a withdrawal agreement with the Taliban that excluded the Afghan government, freed 5,000 imprisoned Taliban soldiers and set a date certain of May 1, 2021, for the final withdrawal. the Trump administration kept to the pact, reducing U.S. troop levels from about 13,000 to 2,500, even though the Taliban continued to attack Afghan government forces and welcomed al-Qaeda terrorists into the Taliban leadership.
Stop voting for these politicians that are clueless!!!
take off for an townhall manager in holiday home mular or chieftain
24:34 the politicians stop barking and we get to actual testimonials
every govy have this problem on each continent
Spinning-wheel…they dont want me to watch….
MORE THAN 13 DIED IN 22 YEARS..........THIS IS A POLITICAL HEARING SO SAD.
7,000 troops and $6 billion over 22 years.
why they just cant leave its none of there buisness
Well we know Crow served, Mr Mast when did you serve? Where, what did you do? Crow has experience and 1st hand knowledge. Mast? Crickets!!!
The president that we have in the office does not care at all he does not care none at all about anybody else's life
Part of the agreement with the taliban was to acknowledge womens rights, allow them positions in governments and schools and jobs.
They were the ones that put forward paid academics…
My stomach aches remembering that day. BIDEN IS TO BLAME! AND HE WAS WATCHING HIS WATCH WHILE SOLDIER'S BODIES WERE COMING HOME.
Great speech for such a empty house. But all the words no matter how sincere will not bring any of those poor people back or help the ones still alive over there that were left behind. Put your trust in God not any man especially the so called leaders of this country.
Leave it to the Demcrats to blame President Trump when he wasn't in office at the time.
God bless our soldiers lost. This admin causes daily disasters intentionally done. They all need to be criminally charged. We had enough their criminals.
Well put in the opening statement chair! Not only did they not learn, they don't want to learn and they don't want anyone else to know. The nerve of joe to try and frame this as a positive. For what? Why? FJB.
please didint brave off rage aktion for peacefully do

PARENTS WIN WATCH!!
43:57 I advised the Embassy team against using H-Kai fie the following reasons.......wait for it....... on or about June 14th we were given the order to close Bagram by July 4th........WFI..........H-Kai would remain open and provide.........46:47 The face of the mortal, Titus is and excellent and apt expression of how the stomachs must feel of everyone listening to this! Enough said! But more is said! These are only the introductory remarks! Why would anyone serve to be ultimately be directed by elected 'self-serving agenda' policy makers! H-Kai became the modern day embodiment of the Alamo! The have been getting wrong from the commencement of the 'Stolen Nation'!
