Scratch Monkey posted:I assume they blew it up there because they claimed it was too dangerous to transport I once loaded several trucks worth of old rear end Iraqi mortars into gun trucks so we could drop it off at the engineers miles away to be properly disposed of. I guess what I'm saying is LAPD can gently caress off with that bullshit. Shame that none of them will see jailtime for terrorizing a neighborhood. Imagine what this country would do if anyone else set off a two ton vbied in one of our cities?

Wait what is the actual story there? EOD got a call out and just put whatever it was on their truck and just set it off in the middle of a neighbourhood?? Is this so they can get a new truck?

Then they loaded too much boom boom powder into their magic containment vessel because they’re stupid.

Its worth noting that the ATF was involved with that "operation" too. I'm less surprised that poo poo went sideways and more surprised that a homeowner's dog wasn't shot.

Where’s this rear end in a top hat Osama? Afghanistan, but will probably escape into Pakistan huh. Can we invade Pakistan? No? Ok. Well let’s kick Afghanistan’s rear end and try to get Osama anyway, we’ll figure the rest out in January when we’re done.

They also set aside an absolutely pathetic amount of aid to rebuild Afghanistan which was severely impoverished and hosed up by decades of war before we blew up the last few remaining things that hadn't already been blown up. The Bush administration didn't want to do "nation building" and somehow expected Afghanistan to just put itself back together out of near total ruin. There was probably a decent chance things could have turned out well there had they actually bothered to spend enough money to rebuild and secure the country right away. Instead they hosed around until things fell apart and spent way more money in the long run when it was too late. Also refusing to negotiate with and re-integrate the Taliban early on just made them decide to wait us out. Rumsfeld in particular comes off as a spectacularly dumb idiot if you read about what they were doing in the early years of the war.
