They needed the confidence of still having the air power.

Why were we there in the first place???
President Bush DID make this about Nation building once he got there.

I care about the terrifying fear and already losses of life which I'll guess far more to come of the civilians.
I know on here, losses of others lives don't matter to some.

Have you listened to those veterans of serving in Afghanistan who are near all saying they feel even betrayed, their injuries,the losses of their comrades lives being for nothing.

Or do their opinions not matter to you either.
I mean they are the ones who got to know the area, the people and served there.

We've contributed to the mess of this withdrawal which was badly planned, monitored terribly despite advancement of technology.

The government in place,ground forces still supported with air power.
That could have been the ideal way to begin leaving.
Not just walk away as the USA and UK did.
