A result of incompetence

Involuntary manslaughter is unintentional killing. We just witnessed involuntary manslaughter in Afghanistan due to incompetent leadership.

Even I know that telling enemies our military plans, giving enemies our (self-imposed) date for our final withdrawal so they know when and how weak our forces will be and removing our military's protection from areas prior to removing our citizens, contractors and allied Afghans will lead to destruction, hostages and death (thirteen servicemen plus others). Moreover, our enemies now have confiscated our advanced weapons to be used against us. Could it have gone any worse?

In World War II artists were secretly employed to create fake tanks, planes, airfields so our enemies would believe our forces were strong as they were moved elsewhere. Did our current leaders flunk military history covert operations? Whoever is responsible for this operation minimally must be fired, no matter how politically connected.

Current leadership displayed great incompetence, has puts our country at high risk and should not be allowed to make any more decisions. Journalists, please investigate.
