A host of reports from Afghanistan early Sunday morning indictated the giant former U.S. Bagram air base has been surrended to Taliban terrorists.

The site is home to a prison housing 5,000 inmates as well as hundreds of vehicle left behind in July by U.S. and NATO forces alongside  associated infrastructure.

The Associated Press reports Bagram district chief Darwaish Raufi confirming the surrender handed the one-time American base over to the terrorists.

The prison housed both Taliban and Islamic State group terrorist fighters.

It came as the Taliban entered the outskirts of Kabul and pledged to bring “peace” to the embattled city, as Breitbart News reported.

Anyone think that after Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, we will finally learn our lesson?

Sadly the American people have elected idiots for the past 25 years.
