hey guys Steve again excuse me um I want to take this time and I want to do a little ramp do little something different um I normally do videos um of my home of the county and I'm a I have a um I guess auditor copb or whatever but today I want to touch you on a very uh very a very condition that very not convey my thoughts on the individuals who died at the abig gate this month 13 individuals gave their life and I want to comment on that and I want to make sure that I'm not going to be politically correct I'm going to be a marine and I'm going to try to Cony what members of our service family all branches what um this represents to most of us and actually the harsh realities that we go through when we sign up serve our country the backstory on Afghanistan and the abig gate I was stationed in Kabul Camp edar right down the street was our sister uh sister five which was Camp Phoenix I would been through the Abate many times all around that airport we did mounted patrols uh four times a day five times at night so we were generally we were familiar with the area I had gotten out in 2009 due to Medical complex PTSD and other situations doctor told me you know what it's not it's not feasible for you to go back mind's not right I disagreed because the fact that my mind was exactly right to go to war and engage the enemy how they saw it differently 13 individuals that died at AB gate the Hesco bears that they were actually on were there in place when I was there been a long time but and these individuals all died trying to evacuate Afghan civilians had proper paperwork the medic the female I believe her name is CC I believe she was actually grabbing kids over the Hesco barrier to save them individuals 10th Mountain division was actually the unit that was in charge that was the unit that I was assigned to so I took it personal because 10th Mount Division if you haven't served um in the Army I did my stand in rine Corp and I did my stand in the Army both Security Forces but I was a rer at after 911 went back into the army because they can guarantee me to go into combat simar and that's what I was training to do these 13 individuals were actually executing an evacuation Mission they were they were controlling the ACT controlling their checkpoint to make sure that there was no individuals that there it was some kind of process of getting these individuals from point A to the airplanes to get them off of the T man we have further learned that in the AO there had been reports of an individual who was a suspect they had identified him on camera he was melling about the crowd with a black backpack they sent out facial recognition of this individual and he was allowed to get right up to the hesal barriers where his Personnel were doing their job there were at least three teams some say more but at least three sniper teams who had identified this individual from all all three checkpoints from all Vantage points securing the gate all three asked for permission to fire on this individual they were not they were denied the reason why they were denied was because the fact this during this operation all engagement had to be authorized by someone who sit in an office in Washington Trump had made a deal with the Taliban we're going to get our people out it's going to be a uh steady withdrawal but we're not just going to leave the country overnight get our people out we're going to get our our uh going to get our afghanis out assisted us this is the reason why Taliban had actually encircled uh Kabul didn't go in right away and they allowed for that to happen assuming that the Biden Administration was going to honor their deal from Trump President Biden was on he was quoted as saying before the withdrawal that if he we started to withdraw now it would take up to a year to get all of our equipment and Personnel out of Afghanistan he said to do it any quicker would be if we left all of our vehicles all of our equipment there and just evacuated the Personnel he said it would take seven months to do that this was the time frame that all dold personnel and the plan of attack was actually implemented that time to withdraw within a year taking everything with us that did not come to Parish soldiers on soldiers Marines Navy personnel Air Force personnel within 72 hours was told to drop everything all your all your equipment except for your set for weapons that you carried which at that time was an M4 a 9mm everything else you left your packs all your cold weather gear your all of your gear you were told to leave behind backdrop to this story was when these individuals came back to the United States to check out a supply they got charged $2,000 $3,000 for missing gear that they were ordered to leave behind meanwhile this individual is steadily going through the crowd his his aim was to get to the checkpoint or as close to the checkpoint he that he could get the last ner team requested for permission to fire recognize the threat they called for permission to fire the captain on the other end I don't have that Authority who does it's a question I want to ask now the these individuals who are on these Hesco barriers they were unaware of the threat they were unaware of who they were looking for whatever their job their mission that day was to escort personnel and control the control point so it doesn't get run over by a bunch of by a bunch of afghanis trying to flee the area American soldiers and these three 13 Marines 13 service members one was Army one was Navy and the rest were Marines I can imagine the chaos that was going on at that particular time and these individuals who were on top of these Hesco barriers and that were actually looking out for control points and actually looking out from observation post to see if an Afghani was turned away they didn't have the proper paperwork they would turn and go back just to be murdered by the Taliban in front of American Personnel I don't know about you but having any Ser having any branch of servers have them have them Stand Down must have been remarkable to look across 100 yards and see the people you've just turned away get brutally butchered shot butchered raped in front of you and you have to stand down there's nothing you can do when this Hesco bear when this individual approach the Hesco barrier he blew you'll never know exactly how many afghanis were killed for the from the explosion how many were killed on the spot by the Taliban numbers range from 250 I'm sure that's a I'm sure that I'm sure that that body count was less than what actually transpired that day said we'll never know what we do know what we do know is 13 service members were wounded mortally wounded along with others one story of a marine who lost both of his arms testified for a congressional hearing said he crawled back to safety he could he would pass out ever period periodically but he was crawling back through the abig gate the reason why this individual wasn't shot and and killed by the Taliban is because they honored their agreement not to shoot any American Personnel during this Hiatus this was all called by the Biden's Administration call we know now that vice president Harris was involved she was the last one in the room and then she she gave the nod to go ahead and evacuate without military that was on the ground any opportunity to plan for the evacuation they were just told get on the get on this truck go to the airport which would be in a bam Air Force Base it's about an hour hour and a half hour hour and a half drive from uh Camp uh to B depending upon where you leave North or South anyway so all these individuals were told except for these marines Soldier this Navy personnel who was ordered to stand post perform their job duties and all the chaos military personnel are trained to witness chaos we are trained to maintain our military bearing at all times However the fact is is that at some point in time sometimes it's just too much information coming in too much information not getting out and it's that lall of lack communication that you get very very concerned this is what actually happened at the advoc I blame an Administration for causing those deaths of afghanis and also the 13 individuals that were that were killed that day and the other individuals that were wounded were taken to Bam and then transported to long long many of these individuals and their comrades in arms they didn't know if they made it or not it would take up to three weeks for these individuals to get word if their comrades had lived or died or what status they were in it's just the military work they don't they not good at passing bad news bad for I can never vote Democrat again after seeing this instance that happened having served in Afghanistan I felt defeated I felt L down by my country and worse than that I felt let down by my leadership we swear and oath to protect our nation all enemies foreign and domestic and we mean what we say what is to be said of a government who is ordering you to run from a fight ordering you to live an unstable unstable condition and put put service members lives in danger and no EX that you're doing so that right there first of all tells you the rule that we all know we're Expendable we follow orders people die we do what we're told even though we don't agree with it we still do we told because it generates the CES of unit keeps things moving forward people die in combat that's just that is just the way it is when you send people off to war there are going to be casualties there's going to be people who do not come back home or do not come back home the same way they left I think that should be taken in consideration whenever you send troops into harm Harm's Way I believe that if you're going to send a man to another foreign country to risk his life I think the American people should be able to recognize that when they come home they're going to need to care it's a period of time to the just that doesn't happen time and time again we have been led by our leadership for us to put our lives in danger for reasons we don't even kind can't even comprehend I don't even know why we were in Iraq I talked to I talked to G former Marine buddies and army buddies they I don't even know why we were there there were no weapons of mass destruction there was no sying gas there was nothing it's all a big lie Afghanistan they told us G to go get Bin Laden individual who did this we gonna go get Bin Laden then why in the hell do we stay that long because Americans have this sense that their their right and our our economy our democracy is should be spread about the world that everybody should bow down to America and agree to it many cultures do not we leave countries trying to force them into religions trying to force them out of their culture and conform to the American beliefs However the fact is that you have to realize these are people too and that they can not agree with you they can decide we're going to run we're going to run our own government we are going to establish our own identity and our own government good bad and different it doesn't make no difference but we do not have the right to go over and tell them that we're going to change their go without proper elections we have a CIA who's been involved in all coups that the person who's running who will say they support America America can support them with money and all the information or whatever they can to win the election they basically hand the election over to them and then they go back and say we're going to do things our way now people don't stand for a propped up government they can see it a mile away but I digress we also have a situation in my lifetime that happened called it Benghazi some of you remember some of you don't there's not a s there's not a s single American soldier who doesn't know what happened in Benghazi our country allowed an ambassador and four individuals to be killed and drugg through the streets well they were being defended by a group of arm Personnel who actually were they were delayed and getting to the scene because why they were waiting on the man sitting behind their desk in Washington who had no access to information did not know what was going on in the ground had no sense at all of the environment that these individuals were subject to we allowed foreign agents to kill the United States Ambassador that used to mean something in Rome they said that a Roman could walk across territory wherever he wanted to go he would have the full weight of the Roman Empire behind him didn't mess territory wherever he wanted to go he would have the full weight of the Roman Empire behind him didn't mess with him if you mess with them they were going to come in they G to take everything they were going to annihilate you just for messing with a ROM so I find it hard to hard to accept the fact that there are individuals who are going to serve who are going to send us into Harm's Way and have no idea what they're sending us into I am personally tired of the fake Moto Mar call it fake Moto it's like all this hurah [ __ ] let's go get some let's go get all that [ __ ] order well then pick pack up your [ __ ] and go see what it's really like instead of sitting back and talking talking about it go see go sit down and talk to a veteran see what it's actually like see what he went through she went through but I'll guarantee you you won't be able to understand it because here's the reason why because when a when a veteran explains to you what they went through you're going to just see it in black and white you don't have the emotions you don't have the sound you don't have the you don't have the explosions The Sounds constant gun radios you don't have all that [ __ ] somebody in there screaming where the hell you need to be where you need to get there whatever then you analyzing if you're going to be able to get there quick enough who needs support first in the Marine Corp somebody's wounded you got to drive home check the W you start the breathing you stop the bleeding protect the moon and you treat for shock then you move on the Navy Medics will out of arrest see people don't understand what it takes for an individual to go into Harm's Way and all components that have to come together that to make it happen we joke in our sh Services we joke about you know Navy Air Force Army Marine Corp we all have internal jokes but I'll guarantee you if you're a civilian and you make fun of any service member they those veterans will come to his a and not particularly the right way right not not probably the way you want to come out basically veterans ain't got nothing to lose what are you going to do stick Us in the sh stick Us in the cell give us three Hots and a cot hell that's home to us vegans are now having to stay silent because the fact is is that if they don't they'll be treated as a second class citizen because they people think they're crazy they're crazy you know you're out of touch all these things or whatever they on you to where the fact is is that you know what you just had enough just tired of the [ __ ] you experience when you get back home there are many instances where the Democratic party have made statements Hillary Clinton Congressional oversight hearing she stated what difference does it make when ask about May her answer was what difference does it make because somebody decided to shoot up it makes all the damn difference in the world if you are an American citizen and you're having to defend a flag and Ambassador and all of the civilians that are actually working there it makes a difference and for someone to imply that it doesn't then you have to ask yourself this question why do I want to go and serve these people take care of what they deem NE necessary to fight for freedom and they sit back talk about it I don't know I don't know the answer to that question you ask vegans today they're all this one question actually keep going was it worth it was it worth it when you look at this current political situation right now you question yourself you question yourself because the fact is is that is my government going to be behind me what I go right now we're supporting Ukraine sending all this money over there I get it Russ inv I understand that but I want to but as American citizen I want to see a progress report what you're actually accomplishing with us sending it sending these weapons down range how has it benefited you what ground have you gained what's your plan what ultimate goal is and actually how are you actually going to fill your ranks because if people don't understand it real quick this Administration Ukraine is not going to go down even if it requires boots on the ground many say well send in N NATO forces well Ukraine is not even part of NATO so guess what they're talking about when they say on the ground good all United States of America Marine exp Marine Expedition Air Force be the first one's on the ground soon as they take the ground Army come in they set up the operation post next thing you know to full out board just like Vietnam I joined serve the military out of respect for one group of people one group of people only that was Vietnam veterans because the fact is is that I realized early on after reading and doing research I wanted to find out why they were s why did it take them so long why did we lose same damn thing that happened to Afghanistan I served because those people decided that they were going to go even if they were drafted said hell let's suit up show up and we left Vietnam in the same way that we left Afghanistan it's not a win people this is an alen of what's to come people are waving flags Palestinians did you know what they really actually stand for let's put it this way if you're gay you're done there's no talking if you're a woman you're done there is no talking you're not special to them you are the Infidel the Muslim religion says that they must kill all Christians all Jews any other religion besides besides Islam they want to annihilate you and they come out and say so yet we support Palestinians and we have individuals who believe in some La La Land we can just all get along with with radical Muslims no we can't I have people that are is uh are from Israel or have their roots that are Jewish and actually have went through the Holocaust they've been through all this they deserve a piece of property where they can actually sit and not be bothered but we forget about one little little detail here Palestine drew the first blood they came in murdered innocent people and took hostages to further to further delay Israel's response and they treated him like crap you actually and they really tortured rap I don't know I don't care which I don't care which gender comes back to to the United States you can guarantee bet your ass they were raped man woman children they were raped but now we have the audacity to tell another country they can't defend themselves I would hope I would hope that when an individual country invades the United States other country say handle your business man handle your business that's your business business you handle that business we are we are allied with the Jewish people we are aligned with the Jewish people because the fact is is that they ain't hurt nobody and anybody mess with Israel you know you know what's coming now we have individuals praying for Palestine because they there's a famine there's all well guess what you that's who you voted in EMP power that's who you supported that's who you wanted to run your country now you're paying for the decisions these individuals make when you knew all along where they were going many people ask me if they're if we're we're headed for World War II in this country if we're going we're already there just don't know yet our country has never been more divided since the Civil War and it's not a white black thing it's not a white hispanic thing it's not a white no here's break it down to you here's what it is it's the halves the W to Haves and the Have Nots we have the W haves that want to be sitting at the table so they'll do anything within their power commit any crime get the seat at the table when you have the seat at the table you direct your minions you do not take responsibility or no responsibil put on you it was them they did I am sick and tired of Congress having oversight committees having all these committees generally pointing out actually pointing out the crimes and the crimes that they these individuals have committed and no charges nothing happens to these people so I'm left to believe that this is that the individuals who are doing the grilling or whatever they're it's just a play it's a free media ad for their reelection they get their names in the paper they get their names in the paper and the fact of matter is is that a lot of people they go to they don't recognize oh I oh I know his name and know vot we have a suspicion a suspicion can be proved that we have illegal voting and fraudulent voting we have have we have had States come back and said oh you know what this wasn't right but they still verified through their electorates to have these individuals elected I don't mean to get off on the Trump train I don't mean to get off on the Biden train because right now I just ask myself a we got any better a we have don't we have anybody better Trump's me method of operators right now is the fact is he's pissed he's pissed off the establishment he's pissed off at these individuals because they tried to take him and his family down and he's pissed off and he is getting off message because the fact is that he wants to take everybody down that went after him I get it but Mr Trump we don't need you to get in there for payback we need you to get in there and run our country we need you to surround yourself with smart people like Tulsa gabber Nikki Haley these individuals who been there done that and got the teach their actually have actually have knowledge of these independ Independence and these individuals that were negotia when Trump stays to his message whenever he stays in basically says what he's going to do when he gets to be president that is his platform stick to your platform when you get off attacking people then people lose interest people lose that Trump is a harsh brass son of a [ __ ] but that's what we need right now and the tales of the mafia I'm not Mafia but anyway in the tales of the mafia you have what you call the wartime Cel area cellary then you had a peace time coun peace time cellary he negotiates all deals it's peace time everybody he maintains the power of the family through negotiations through deals no deals whatever but when war time comes they put that Cel are aside and they get a wartime Cel are and it's time to go to war that's what they do be careful when you start asking these individuals who see what's going on who understand Warfare understand the tactics and when you ask them to go again you to be we never would we we never would have that never would have been a question hell yeah let's go again I'll go again let me get up let me get my body ready let me go get all that's what I'm gonna need we go again now we have military personnel questioning after the way they treated and have been treated and will be treated currently are treated is it really worth it give me something to believe in give me something to fight for if you don't want to go to war I don't give a [ __ ] if you want to if you want to talk about another way of living and you want to talk about go find a country and go there but here's the last scenario I want to tell you this kind of breaks it down like a shotgun I'm firm supporter of the 2A reason why because I want because I want to be able to protect myself my family I can't I can't rely on the law law and order to be there in time I can't I can't rely on the laws practicing ad justices to to punish criminals I can't rely on that all I know is that right here right now I've got to save myself and my family and I have people who are telling me that I am wrong in these beliefs okay but don't be coming to us Whenever there is a mass shooting expect us expect us to save your ass don't expect us to defend you cuz for all we know is well you shot a gun now I'm going follow a lawsuit because of I can't here save your damn life son [ __ ] I ain't going to put myself through that drama take me and M son [ __ ] I ain't going to put myself through that drama take me and M and anybody else who wants to protect millionaires don't get it twisted at some point in time you're going to have to fight for something whether it be high school or whatever you're going to have to stand up for something and say this is weth fighting for we are we are uncapable of doing that now we have a we have a generation of individuals who grew up on video games I think that's what it's about what I'm telling people and firefight the mass shooting you don't get three you don't get three lives and unfortunately it's going to take it's going to take realization of bad times hard times for us as American people to make a decision what's worth fighting for and what's not I am appalled at individuals who talk about veterans like they know what the hell they're talking about I'm appalled by people who actually tell me what I can what I can't say or whatever I fought for the right to use my my Bill of Rights and my Constitution don't tell me no different don't tell us any different because there's one little piece of information and I'll close with this one day it's coming pretty soon one day you're going to need that old broken down petrick to tell you what it takes to tell you what you need to do to save your ass tell you what you need to do to save your family's ass it's hope that they'll be there just hope they'll offer up the assistance to you and after all the crap is spouting out mouth then there's a lot of individuals who don't get [ __ ] if you live for God and this is what war comes to you have to make sure that you understand that people will die this government we are currently running now people have died benaz in Afghanistan Beirut all these places where we have risk our lives or whatever for a politician we don't give a damn about us want to get back but ask it to stay patriotic give me something to believe in why do I want to be patriotic why do I want to be patriotic to stand for the flag whenever I don't even know what the hell the flag stands for anymore I've got individuals who are LED office w't even sleep the flag I got individuals the office that want to put up a gay flag and a Palestinian flag before they out my flag and yeah it's my flag I earned it many individuals have earn it so basically this is called arms I'm not asking you go go man up arm up K get your kid out ready or whatever no I'm trying to get you get your mind right because there's a group of people out there that were taught to believe people will say it's never going to happen here it can't never happen here it's not all this bull believeing that there [ __ ] don't stink and that there above and beyond let me tell you something there's a group of individuals who prepared in case it does keep stepping on the individuals who giving their lives for you they're going to start stepping back harm you they don't harm you no harm going do it to yourself I have no I have no duty to protect you I have in United I have no do all I have to do
