Taliban offensive of 2021 and collapse of Afghan government.

UK left documents with names as well in abandoned embassy...

Why diplomatic staff just don't set their embassies alight as they are fleeing from an imminent enemy, I'll never know. They should have at least incinerated all their sensitive information before leaving (as the US Embassy did, albeit they also torched Afghan visa applications as well; still, better them lost rather than have them mined for information by the Taliban's intelligence), instead of leaving them scattered all over the ground.

This should’ve sent the message

 
We should never have been there other than to get Osama anyway. And he escaped to Pakistan in 2001 thanks to Bush's bumbling. Trying to occupy the place was absolute insanity. We should have just let them be Russia's problem. Graveyard of empires, bla bla bla, you know the shpiel.

It's weird that Pakistan was literally hiding Osama bin Laden for years and has been funding the Taliban for years, and the US government, which usually wants to bomb the fuck out of people, did... nothing.

Actually worse than nothing:

Since 2009, the U.S. government has committed over $5 billion in civilian assistance to Pakistan and over $1 billion in emergency humanitarian response.

During Pakistan’s 2019-2020 fiscal year, the United States was once again the top donor country to Pakistan of on-budget, grant-based assistance. U.S. assistance to Pakistan is always in the form of grants, which does not add to Pakistan’s debt burden or balance of payments challenges.

Seriously, what the fuck? :punished:

That fiasco is a great reminder why one should never shred something they want gone for good:

The fact so many pro Biden Twitter accounts aren't giving any specifics and are just saying "thank god someone GOOD is in the White House!" is very telling and very sad.
The current fiasco over Kabul airport is at least as much a Trump fuck up as it is Biden's, if not more so. Not sure why any partisan side on US Twitter is trying to spin this as either "Orange man bad!" or "Sleepy Joe sleeping at the wheel"; this is a collective US foreign policy fuckup.

The "adults" had the better part of a year to prepare for this and apparently just didn't give a shit.

Yeah it's not ALL Biden's fault obviously, but "The Buck Stops Here" applies
 
I've always wondered why boomers thought shredders were secure. Like nigga wtf you never did a jigzaw puzzle before?
Shredders are secure only if one is running something minor like a small business at home, which almost nearly anyone isn't really interested in the running of such an insignificant operation in the first place. Any dedicated autist, be they an Iranian carpet weaver turned Khomeini fanatic or a PI, let alone any glowie, however, can make short work of the repairing of such "destroyed" documents.

The software is on the open market and you can buy special scanner i think. Germany had the best expert for that since the 90s because of the effort to restore a billion stasi papers or so.
