Did China evict us from Afghanistan?

Hello again Mike! Jordan from Grand Rapids. I really appreciate the answer to my first question regarding peace talks with Putin over Ukraine. It gave a great perspective to the situation that I hadn’t considered. Now with the new question. In regards to the US Afghanistan pull out in 2021. The entire situation to me smells of something not being talked about. In your opinion, would China have any reason to pressure the US out of Afghanistan to allow free flow of whatever to Iran? The situation left so many unanswered questions that I could believe it was a means to prevent an invasion of Taiwan. I don’t believe anyone has yet presented a true reason we rushed out. I threw a lot at you. Curious your thoughts.

Afghanistan

Clem from Oklahoma. Howdy Mr. Baker. On this three year anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing, (during the Afghan withdrawal debacle) what's the probability the US will be back for combat missions (boots on the ground) in the next three years? Thank you.

Double Pumper

Hello Mike, Bryan from NW Indiana here. "First time caller, longtime listener." My question is twofold: Why can't Americans demand that the US Military has to produce results like a corporation? Quarterly results to be scrutinized by retired business & military leaders. Being held accountable for not meeting goals & objectives and clearly stating those commitments and shortcomings in writing. Public and ceremonial firings should be the norm. Why does the US tolerate ineptitude from its Generals?

Why on earth would Tehran (according to our "intelligence") be willing to open nuclear arms negotiations with us given that they supposedly are no more than 2 weeks away from being able to build a bomb? Could it be that they just can't resist having another "negotiation" with the worst negotiators on the planet (us)?
