The first U.S. implementation plan for Afghan evacuation failed. But that first failure does not determine future failure. A new plan that evacuates safely all Americans, Afghans employed by USG & Afghan NGO leaders, journos, etc will determine how history records this moment. — PolitiTweet.org

But that same "intel," as reported to us, said that the 300,000 soldiers strong Afghan Army could resist the Taliban for a long time? I'm confused. Im guessing there's a whole lot more to this intel story. 3/ END THREAD. — PolitiTweet.org

I find it implausible that 300,000 Afghan soldiers spontaneously and individually quit. I find it more plausible that they received such orders from their leaders who cut a deal with the Taliban. I look forward to reading more reporting to confirm/refute this hypothesis. — PolitiTweet.org
