We had a single convoy get lost during the Iraq invasion and get captured by the Iraq army and it was a major scandal that stuck on the news for weeks. We never had Abrams tanks drive aimlessly in the desert until they ran out of gas or steal fuel from local gas stations. Also there was no mass censorship. Stop being disingenuous to deflect Based Russia's shortcomings. We had constant news coverage about Taliban working in the ANA, mass fraud, money mismanagement and soldiers being ambushed. Are you even American or just assuming that stuff never reached American news outlets?If those were videos of American forces, it would NEVER see the light of day in the American mainstream media. Every military and every war is full of stuff like that. But no American
equipment ever got stolen in Iraq. The Afghan National Army never had Taliban serving in it. No convoy got fucked in Iraq. We never paid big money to Iraqis to "help" the US
military who were fully on the other side. Nobody ever got led into an ambush.
Just a few months ago, the United States went through one of its greatest and most embarassing humiliations in our history in Afghanistan. We dealt with total military failure,
humiliation, people lying about the situation, incompetence and so on by just moving on like it had never happened at all.
Point out some videos of M1 tanks getting lost then losing their turrets to ATGMs or US soldiers running out of food and looting Iraqi grocery stores.Yeah imagine if america left a bunch of equipment to be captured, had unrealistic assessments of timelines, suffered needless casualties, and killed a bunch of civilians pointlessly
