Afghanistan is a burial ground for armies spanning across centuries.
How did islam manage to conquer it?
@@pyhead9916 The same way that the British, Babylonian, Greek, Mongolian, Persian, and previous groups did??
@@pyhead9916
Afghanistan was much easier to conquer when guns weren’t a problem
The only reason Afgan has any inhabitants left is due to the emotions of Western women.
@@pyhead9916its an arab nation and islam is an arab born ideology. Also, islam fully supports forceful conversion. Kinda easy to take over a nation when you kill and enslave anyone who doesn’t bend the knee
As a Brit that got shot in the Helmand nad Ali. 3 rifles. I was on a plane out of khandahar after my surgery to save my eye. The fly back to bastion with a platoon of marines was instresting me with holes facial holes. After eye surgery. They looked worried ha!
Iraq was wild, then calmed down. Afghanistan was quiet, then got wild. Syria was IED city. Tons of mass cas.
I feel like while it calmed down for you guys the british and canadians were getting at it in helmond
@@austinporter6701 maybe, I wasn't there. I heard things, but nothing from people I knew.
Helmund especially sangin and marjah were combat everyday . I am talking about 2008 -09 from my experience but my second deployment was also to RC south so I was in Kandahar which was wild
@@austinporter6701lol
Thank you brother for watching our backs
This guy is my hero along with the 1000000 other guys just like him
Didn't do his homework,,grave error, pun intended.
Must have been pretty sick to be a sniper taking out all those taliban
Sick is the operative word. Morally repugnant is better.
@@curtrapp5291moralizing can only get you so far
@@curtrapp5291because the Taliban treats women and children so well rigjt
@@curtrapp5291bet you cried for soleimani
@@curtrapp5291Go live there.
My kid is a 1-6 Combat Engineer.
Your kid stands a very good chance of dying for nothing in another 20 year forever war because some war mongering politician wants more money.
I was in Marjah 🏰
Afghanistan was said 7 times in this short clip.
4 times in 9💀 seconds
If you weren't there, you don't know.
I'd akin it to jump into Texas Oklahoma Louisiana Arkansas etc.
I checked in. They gave me, (a K-9 handler) 1k rds of 556, and a gallon size bag of 9mm. I was laughing because I thought it was "overkill". It wasn't.
and the taliban just had a parade showing off all of our equipment left over and made it a national holiday. i think it was last week. check out the footage. a lady on the shawn ryan pod that worked for CIA said we are sending the taliban 20-80 million dollars CASH each and every week. infuriating
How can I get a little bid of this.
Alberto Elias.
God bless him and I thank him for his service.
God bless him? He sounds like a psychopath who only wants to kill people. That statement he made where he said “they’re smoking dudes left and right over there” tells you why he wanted to go. To kill. Not to serve.
How quickly we forget all the terrorist attacks against the US and allies worldwide and how they were facilitated by terrorist training camps in Afghanistan. After 9/11, we shouted "We will never forget!" We hit back hard. But over time, as the threat is ameliorated, people lose the spirit of their conviction, turn on the very heroes that helped them, and begin to pontificate about how peaceloving they are. What ingratitude, what hypocrisy, what cowardness.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR GOD BLESS YOU
Alexander the Great said the same thing thousands of years ago lol. I hated Afghanistan
Yeah, Alex is famous for his two team sniper units lol
Instantly made me think of that one Family Guy about guns "Did you know? Jesus and Moses used guns to defeat the Romans?" (Cuts to both a top a hill firing AK47s at Roman Centurians) 😂😂😂
I think it was the episode Peter becomes a redneck😅
Reminds me of that interaction between Poncho and Dutch in the movie "Predator".
Poncho: "Remember Afghanistan?"
Dutch: "I'm trying to forget about it."
That's why he conquered it
He didn't @@georgepetrou3593
Thank you for your service sir
take a shot every time he says Afghanistan.
@gordonlekfors2708 7 shots
@@Lyingrunner 7 per minute of hanging out with him 😨
My friend was killed in Helmand , 2006 .
Died for quite literally nothing sorry to tell you, it's not even debatable.
@@eliyahuohiyon7461 He took thirteen Taliban with him ..and keep his unit from walking into an ambush.
@@donaldmartin4980Your friend died keeping his buddies alive....THAT, quite literally, is NOT nothing...RIP...
Died for George w bush
I'm sorry for your loss, truly.
WE SALUTE YOU SIR WELL DONE AND WELCOME HOME SIR
Prayers going out to all you brave soldiers! May god be with you and bring you all home safely! 🙏💝💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
He’s a marine, not a soldier. Cheers
Heartbreaking and the absolute saddest thing that I can think of the fact that we are still doing this
Lol what? Who told u this.....
What are you talking about…. Honestly, what are you talking about?!?
Go home Ivan. Clear MAGA aka vladolf putlers propaganda.
Karma is gonna be.... Not nice 😆
Get with the times.
Ah yes another war we had no business being in
And the cycle will continue unfortunately
But think of all the money the M.I.C. made ...🤬
Terrorist camps training facilities.
How quickly we forget after 9/11 shouting "We will never forget!"
“Afghanistan… nothing is going on in Afghanistan”
_Your first thought was the right thought… Nothing was ever going on in Afghanistan from a macro view. There was never the same level of violence we encountered in Iraq, and that’s the straight up truth_
Imagine Iran
Amen 🙏🏻
I honeslty feel for this guy. I served in the international legion of Ukraine. 39 confirmed kills as a combat medic.. Image the loss ration on the russians side. Still do active Instructor deployments. Spent 6 months on the frontlines.
Bulllllll sheiiiittttt 😂🎉
My neighbor has 3 rabbits….
US fighting men in Afghanistan are/were all brave and fought like men. That's why i think my government owes them all an apology.
Ask the British about Afghanistan in their retreat from Kabul on 1842 ..about 4500 soldiers, 12000 family members and support left Kabul headed back to Jalalabad ...ONE English man and few indian support guys made to Jalalabad.
Thank you 🙏 ❤️🇺🇸for your service to our country.
U would never think someone looking like him killed so many ppl😭
Alexander the great conquered most of the known world during his time… but once he got to Afghanistan that man struggled to even get a foothold in the country. Followed by hundreds of empires throughout the centuries struggling to take em down. Says a lot about the determination the Afghan people have
not to take anything away from the afghan people because you're absolutely right, but geography is also a huge factor in this. they're surrounded by mountains and live in isolated pockets around the country. it's hard enough to get to them in the first place
And all for nothing
Outstanding 👍
I was on ETT 1-11 in 09 with him
Meanwhile, the man responsible was in Pakistan.
Imagine how much worse they are now with 90 billion dollars in the best gear for that kind of theater donated to them by Bridem
Just shut up and quit you’re crying.
Makes me sick to my fkn stomach
You mean the shitty second hand ANA and ANP gear that they don't have spare parts for and can't maintain? Not to mention the fact that Taliban literally aren't an offensive force and don't wage combat outside of the confines of Afghanistan, in fact they're actually fighting ISIS at the moment. Hmmmmm it's almost like the war we had there was a farce and was all for nothing. The Taliban weren't even responsible for 9/11, like at all, that was Al Qaeda who just happened to be hiding in Afghanistan. So what did we do? We fought the group that wasn't responsible for the attacks for 20 years, makes sense right? If you're going to be angry about "MuH gEaR lEfT bEhInD!!!!" Also be angry that we were in that place to begin with, because we had no reason at all to be there, American lives shoved into the meat grinder for nothing, as per usual. Turns out when people are invaded they tend to fight back, real shocking right?
@@eliyahuohiyon7461 Respectfully they got a lot of weapons that’s parts can easily be remanufactured for . Countries like China will happily duplicate the needed parts and munitions for them, as will other Countries . The aircraft may be a little harder to do but on a whole a lot of the stuff left can be kept going for many years and its various circumstances and ways around the globe it’s been the globe. All the armor , rifles , personal and military armored vehicles. All the Biometrics of the people in Afghanistan that helped the United States. That Biden gladly handed over to them . And after 20 years of what we did to them. You think they don’t have some serious grudges with us ? You’re talking about a Country that weird us out using weapons that ranged from muzzle loafers , WW2 British 303 Enfields , Weapons seized in Russias endeavor there and now ares . Respectfully a lot of what you mentioned is 2nd hand wishful thinking that could fill an enormous Mainstream Media Montage that was released to diminish what’s Bidens administration had done . Many of these weapons have the ability to be used against us and that’s something even Biden mentioned before his brain downgraded to AOL Dial up . Common sense tells you even the things they might not be able to fix someday. Are ripping and roaring today , not to mention what Ukraine will be selling off of our equipment around the globe and primarily to the Middle East including Afghanistan. To upgrade and repair what we all ready have them . Dude just the amount bang sticks we left alone has become a sign of nightmare fuel for their citizens
@@steratorefriends6596 Yeah me too
They have a billion dollars of our weapons now too
Probably more than $50 billion, all told. DISGUSTING F J.B. cabal!!
Context ??… set-up ??
The purpose of this clip is to grab your attention so you watch the full video. Watch the full video and you will get the context you want.
What are the both of you on?
Fun fact: He said effgeynistaen 6 times in the first half
Smoking dudes in their own country - the empire.
Invaders bring the clocks but Afghans have the time.
I have heard that from buddies who have experience in Helmand with over watch guardian angel style services, they said they would just sit wayyy back with the thermal sighting system whatever the name is and he said every single night. Baiting em
Um you're a like 403 who makes up stories about friends or family members being relevant to the video to try and get likes and respect...
I actually had my uncle brother sister dad and cousin in those sniper overwatch and live combat missions and my dad killed 43 my uncle 24 my sister 88 and my brother passed away in the heat of the battle. Please give me likes and ask me about specific's I can make up and questions about my families sacrifice and their personal thoughts and secret insight. I'd love to tell you but I need a like and subscribe and a patron donation for my brothers widow and my uncle and sisters ptsd treatment and for my well being because I myself am a single dad with 13 kids and one leg so please give my sympathy and likes on my comment and reach out because I'd love to tell you about the inside story because I'm also in the CIA FBI KGB and a SWAT team leader so again please just acknowledge me and talk to me and likes it's all I live for just please
@bostonfrombrady that's you now shut up
@@hbomb3251 Cope and seethe
I don't think we should have gone to Afghanistan we should have known what happened when the Russians went those people are one with the Rocks what the hell are we going to do. Too many dumb politicians
Not just the Russians, it's been earning it's moniker "where empires go to die" for centuries..
To be fair, Afghanistan likely would've lost against the soviets without the help of the US arming, training and financing the resistance fighters
Finally someone with critical thinking skills lmfao
Why no link to the full interview?
we should’ve jus left them countries alone back in the 90s
Why is everyone thanking him?
Because he served his county. What have you accomplished in this life? That’s why he’s thanked. Seem a little jealous.
@@JourneyJankings You think what he did in Afghanistan was service to the country or service to Washington DC?
I've created and family and never hurt anyone, I'm proud of that.
@@TuxedoTalk everyone that signs on that dotted line has an obligation. I was in for 6 year, and thankfully didn’t see combat. This guy did, and like many others, did what he had to do. Good for you for not hurting anyone, but it appears your ego is already pretty frail.
@@TuxedoTalk when push comes to shove, it’s either their life or yours. You haven’t been put in that situation, but I’m pretty sure instincts would kick in. As I mentioned, I know nothing about combat, which is why I thank those who have seen it. It’s ugly.
@@JourneyJankings I'm sorry you helped Washington DC kill people overseas. I'm sorry you were tricked into taking part in putting our country in so much debt. I'm sorry it accomplished nothing.
I don't hate you but I'm definitely not grateful for what you did.
🇺🇲❤
was this during their 2004 deloyment?
Correction, he’s talking about 2009.
😢
What was the insertion for tho?
No-One knew...;
Don’t worry, we lost
Afghanistan the graveyard of empires, never been taken over.
That’s not entirely accurate.
Afghanistan is not a war. It's a killing region that uses the term "War" to
keep it from using the "Murder" term
instead. Therefore, no one can be referred to as a Murderer or charged as.
What's going on in the "United States"? Is our Agriculture up to par?
Let's keep our noses in our home
States.
In closing, how many "Illegal Aliens"
are there in Afghanistan? Are they
Dangerous? Let's worry about our
Country, Sheep.

Graveyard of nations
A lot of circus seals trained to clap and repeat the same line like a bot here.
Because they’re showing respect. Something you clearly know nothing about.
Only one who’s really a bot out here is you.
I just thought that everybody was engaged in combat when I was in because I was deployed longer than I was in garrison for the first 6 years of my time in. Hearing about guys “missing out” always makes me super suspicious of them. It’s almost like even when you didn’t try your ass got deployed to OIF or OEF. I showed up to my first unit at 18 and I remember seeing E-2’s with Purple Hearts and CIB’s 😂 I knew at that moment that I was in for a wild ride.
Got wild because you’re country can’t keep its nose out of others business
I bet you’re the type that will also cry that the U.S. needs to intervene and stop Israel from “committing genocide”
We were attacked and the group that attacked us were harboring within the borders.
We also knew they were in Pakistan so we needed to be able to dominate the region in case of a nuclear conflict.
Once Osamas location was known we invaded there as well.
Mission accomplished.
Nice 👍👍🤣😂
Bro said Afghanistan way too many times
Oil
Opium
That's more Iraq and Syria and Kuwait, Afghanistan was Opium and regional interest.
All I heard was that they were getting messed up for invading a country
Weird how this guy seems really happy about it . Smh
Hmmm. Just be silent please
You first
You get deployed over there? Then you have no room to tell someone who’s served to be quiet.
Goat farmers
Good to know that we just gave it all back to the enemy without a solid plan so Biden could have some kind of legacy.
We should've never been there to begin with
@@eliyahuohiyon7461 be that as it may, the reality is that we _were_ there. And commerce returned. Women were able to go to school. There was relative peace and order. And now the Taliban has it again, along with our base and all the weaponry we left, on purpose. The way we withdrew was criminal. To the people of Afghanistan, our soldiers that died during the process, our allies (interpreters and ground forces) and to the American tax payer. So there’s that.
Poor Afghanistan people
Poor Americans who died on 9/11.
Is this when Obama told the Taliban where our guys would be and told them when?
Needed the english to come amd save you 😂
And the English needed the Danes to save them.
And the English, they then right after friendly fired and killed two of the Danes.
English isn't a nationality 💀, and they say Americans are dumb
That funny because our kill ratio is 50 to one. We dominated the aphaganistan. In what way did we lose?
Disgusting
Because he served his country? What have you done in this life? Go make something of yourself or shut the hell up. Pathetic.
What have you done with your life? You don’t have the balls to do what this guy did 😂😂😂 another internet warrior. Get with the times Gen z.
@@JourneyJankings I've been one of the most productive human beings I've ever known doing some of the most dangerous things there are to do not attacking innocent people protecting their Homeland
@@chrishouseman4781 innocent? Ohh man. Are you naive. Most of the people, over seas, when our troops were deployed, none of them had the best intentions. You have these freedoms, because people have died, so you could enjoy your lovely life. Again, show some respect.
@@chrishouseman4781 you’re so dangerous oooo

I love they call it combat lol. Air planes vs aks lol
Bro thinks the army can just send aircraft to any problem
@Lyingrunner well that's how the usa fights. So you are kind of dumb. Revealed yourself lol
@@Lyingrunner you reported me for calling you dumb haha, Sally. America fights with artillery and planes , hardly any ground contact. Small brain.
Combat two people fighting. Two people are fighting
