NASHVILLE — For better or worse, former President George W. Bush will be remembered for a program called No Child Left Behind.
For worse, and worse alone, President Joe Biden will go down in history as the architect of Every Weapon Left Behind.
While scrambling wildly out of Afghanistan, Biden bequeathed to America’s enemies the Arsenal of Anti-Democracy. Atop seizing Afghanistan in a veritable coup d’état, the Taliban inherited a staggering array of war supplies. The grimy, dusty terrorist scum who hosted Osama bin Laden have become a formidable regional power. And they have Joe Biden to thank.
Biden’s generosity blessed the Taliban with a cornucopia of weapons. This bonanza is jaw-dropping for its assortment and abundance. These armaments were shipped from the U.S. to Afghanistan starting in fall 2001. According to estimates in The Times (UK), the BBC, and The U.S. Sun, this haul includes:
–U.S. military combat uniforms
–Lightweight helmets, designed to ease communication
–Bulletproof, carbon/graphite body armor
–Four C-130 transport planes
–33 UH 60 Blackhawk helicopters
–634 M117 Armored Security Vehicles
–8,000 large trucks
–16,035 night-vision goggles
–22,174 Humvees
–25,327 grenade launchers
–42,000 pickup trucks and SUVs
–64,363 machine guns
–126,295 pistols, including .40 caliber Glocks
–162,043 radios
–358,530 assault rifles
