@@dysfunctionalaf I was recently watching a Julian Dorey clip where he interviews a prolific US sniper. Several comments were complaining about him interrupting his guest. In the above clip here, Ryan is doing it far more often than Dorey (and I wouldn’t even call it interrupting). I like both of these gentlemen so I’m not taking issue with their interview style. I’m addressing the comment saying Ryan knows how to shut. It seems surprisingly opposite to what people were saying about Dorey. Tbh it felt like Dorey was targeted by a bot brigade. No big deal just noticed a conspicuous difference in comment sections. The biases might be a result of who the guest was rather than the interviewer

That is definitely very sad.❤❤❤

[@bossanova3292]

It's refreshing hearing a normal soldier talk instead of one of those "badass operators".

[@Nimrodwithagun]

I was also there, but my experiences in comparison to this guy's feel insignificant. I only had to hand over some people that had breached the walls, I didn't have to watch what the Taliban was doing to them, or get blown up.

[@ddavis6895]

Speaking for myself ..seems this info/first hand sharing was hardly covered and shared other than a 2 pg article in a magazine. Thanks for sharing

[@joeyboedeker2047]

Shows 100% that command is/was completely useless.

As an American woman, all I want to do is hug this man and thank him for his sacrifice.

[@boredengineersittingatgroo2638]

Special hug?

You should find him and meet him and do just that, he probably does public speaking. These are the real heros that we need to focus on.

From the videos coming out of there, there were a 1000 red flags, nothing secured😢

[@armynation31B5V5P]

Being a Soldier and following orders... My "bad vibe senses" would be so heighten. And there's really nothing really you can do. Except try to watch out for your fellow Brothers/Sisters.

[@myahsoodinim8570]

How do you "secure" an entrance to an airport mobbed by civilians with a suicide bomber in it's midst? Biden did surge 4,000 troops into Afghanistan to help with the evacuation. Trump had only left 2,500 in Afghanistan.

[@tmarsalek36]

Thank you for your service and sacrifice sir.

I heard another military member tell a story of parents throwing their infant over the fence so they could have a better life, but what they did not know behind that fence/wall was barbed wire in the infants were getting pretty much decapitated once they got thrown over the wall by their parents

dumb story yea a parent Is just tossing kids lmaoo

0:55 it feels disgusting. Knowing you can help in a situation and being told not to is one of the hardest things to cope with during and after.

[@MilitantMerican]

According mr magoo in the White House and his supporters, the withdrawal from Afghanistan was gonna happen anyway so this is all ok .

[@0xXSquishYXx0]

Considering trumped authorized the withdrawal for January 1st that August before the election… yeah it would’ve.

[@LSGaming42066]

he had to witness the worst of humans this century. that is just god awful. i'm sorry u had to witness that Tyler no human should go through that experience or witness that ever. thank you for your service it means a lot to us

[@pretendingtobedylan]

It took me 6+ minutes to realize dude was missing an arm. What a fuggin legend he is.

[@theresas2520]

He's missing a leg too. All because of what happened that day.

[@Greg-rv5vm]

Same here

[@frenchbulldogdad1003]

​@@theresas2520NOT what happened.... WHAT BIDEN DID!!!

[@iiyyxxnn]

​@@frenchbulldogdad1003you really think Biden is making those decisions? I bet you also believe that Trump would " drain the swamp" that he lived in and wanted to upgrade as well.

[@dtllcmotorsportwa]

Poor dude, cant imagine how he is feeling, shtt you cant unsee

[@blackbilly1965]

Shawn, I'm sorry to even say this, but that dudes arm is total badass, just saying Love your page

[@ESOLeroyJenkins]

26 August 2021…I had just left an appointment with mental health and got the notification of the explosion. I had experienced a lot before, but that blast hurt me more from 7000 miles away than any IED i got hit with or anything else that happened to me in my career. That was the day I decided it was time to retire…took me a few months to actually click the button, but it was a hard few months of trying to exist in the new generation.

[@silentndoodly7083]

Amazing how there's no footage of any of this.. Appreciate his service and sacrifice

[@dustinbennett7848]

There is actually a great documentary on Netflix that depicts everything he is speaking of.

[@codyhall7949]

Lots of footage just gotta look for it and it might not be some stuff you would like to see

Casualties were expected from the withdrawal. That's why conald didn't withdraw them. The coward. He just didn't want to look bad. He doesn't care about anyone but himself.

[@alu.304]

No one person "in-charge" made any of these decisions. Even the diaper wearing old Pedophile kid sniffer wasn't solely to blame. This was all well orchestrated by the NWO/WEF Pedophile Cabal that pulls the Uniparty string. Time to wake up👍

[@ViewerC7100]

Exactly ahahah these dudes think we should of asked nicely and we would of left peacefully after invading there country for over a decade

[@EM-tx3ly]

The mission was to take out Bin Laden which could have been done much earlier and frankly Taliban are better motivated to go after ISIS elements than fake Afghan national security forces guards personnel etc Where did the president go and how much he took ? In Dollars I might add

[@peterruiz6117]

"conald" ?

[@kingboost3099]

Trump set the date for pull out and expected to be president commanding the op. This would never have happened this way he's been vocal about not even leaving equipment. But this was a failure! Like everything else under Biden is a failure

[@backtothebarky]

What was the reason behind all the executions? Was it purely because the people in that vicinity were assumed to be supporting the Americans?
