Is it best to torch billions in U.S. military assets when we leave or to leave the assets for the Afghans?

Having served in Sandland id say TORCH ... and all.

There are already far to many weapons in enemy hands.

Plus they are already using them against their allied instructors on the ground regularly! Hence they have proved they are not to be trusted.

Then we would be foolish to leave them state of the art technology plus an arsenal to use against us at a later date.If anything should be left it would be enough to leave them outdated tech sufficient to defend themselves only.

Leave them. That way, we can pay people to go fix them for the Afghans, thus creating jobs.

And we might need to get it back fairly soon. d

Torch them and it will look like a defeat...no, help the Afgahns operate them in the future as part of an extraction strategy.

I would say blast them all back to the stone age except they are already living in the stone age.

Torch, those guys don't have electricity or diesel to power any of it once we leave.
