Pretty much.
For some absurd reason, none of the time leading up to this pullout was used to extract billions of dollars of weapons and military assets (much of which was classified technology). Those weapons/assets were practically gift wrapped for the Taliban.
The Taliban, in turn keeps what they want, and sells the rest to Russia, China, or just other terrorist organizations.
>But it’s too expensive to exfiltrate those things
Well, then dip into the thousands of pounds of explosives you’re leaving behind to render them inert. The way the Taliban dipped into those same explosives to kill 100 people this week.
