Fool Me Forty-Six Times …

The U.S. military bombed a moving vehicle in Afghanistan that is says contained the member of ISIS-K who planned the attack on the Karzai airport this week. If we know who these people are and where they are, why didn’t we bomb them four days ago?

Or: did the military pick a random target to destroy so it could declare victory and go home?

Or: did the Taliban provide the intelligence so that U.S. taxpayers would foot the bill for eliminating their competition? (I vote for this one)
