WATCH: General Milley claims he saw NOTHING to indicate Taliban would take over in 11 days [AND MORE]

by The Right Scoop

General Milley is holding a press conference right now and emphatically said that he saw nothing to indicate the Afghan military would fall and the Taliban would take over in 11 days:

 
I can just imagine that behind the scenes Biden was telling Milley he needed to do a press conference to take some heat off of himself because his speech two days ago only made things worse.

So here’s Milley, today, claiming that one of the three scenarios that intelligence gave him was the rapid fall of the Afghan military and takeover of the country by the Taliban. But he claims those estimates of how quickly the Taliban would take over ranged from weeks to months to years. That’s when he said:

“There was nothing that I or anyone else saw that indicated a collapse of this army or this government in 11 days.”

Can someone tell Milley that ’11 days’ constitutes ‘weeks’. I mean it’s almost two weeks and it’s definitely more than one week.

But seriously though, what he’s really saying is that he and the people he depends on for accurate intelligence are incompetent. I don’t really believe that’s the case, though, because those who predicted that the Taliban would take over in ‘weeks’ were just about right on point. I think the one who is truly incompetent here, other than Biden, is Milley. He’s essentially admitting it. And now there’s a crisis in Afghanistan where we can’t get our people out safely.

Milley also said in the presser that the Taliban isn’t interfering with us getting Americans out of Kabul:

But, as Disclose TV just reported, the State Department is accusing the Taliban of not keeping their promise of allowing access to the airport. Misinformation?

Also, watch how Def Sec Austin gets really uncomfortable when a reporter points out the obvious, that they are saying our only hope of getting our people out is diplomacy with the Taliban. General Milley interrupts and dodges the question completely:

What a clown show.
