You should look up the CH47 (D, E, F), and when you do, get back with us. kabul to bagram, by roads is about 70 KM (which if you don't know that is about 42 miles). So, a Chinook (x10) can absoutley conduct that operation.

Oh, and when you do go look up the CH47, it'll say PAX (passangers) is 32, that's seated and with a seat belt. Seats up, we can carry almost 100+-------Care to ask me why I know?
Lol, I knew what a kilometer is long before you did.

On a serious note, let me repeat moving 100k + from Kabul to Bagram makes no sense whatsoever. Unless you want a lot of funerals.

And to give real news, instead of the propaganda machine, the US military disabled equipment left behind after the Taliban was in control.

They were providing a security checkpoint at the airport. Are you suggesting there should have been no US security at the airport?

How do you think that would have worked? I would think we might have a thousand dead Americans if no security to get into the airport.

After the backlash they received earlier for arming the Taliban, of course they did what they could for damage control. Propaganda machine? Every news outlets in the world have reported that the USA has armed its enemy with advanced weapons. I guess the whole world is a propaganda machine against Biden.

Taliban celebrate their victory with US made weapons. Yeah, big propaganda machine.

"27 Humvees and 73 aircraft"


So, instead of thousands of armored vehicles and hundreds of aircraft, they only have thousands of armored vehicles and hundreds of aircraft left that are in working order? Though, it is great that some of the departing soldiers saw fit to sabotage some of them.

You have to be full blown Blue Anon if you think Biden hasn't seriously messed up in Afghanistan with his stream of lies and a debacle of a withdrawal.
