The Taliban also posted video of what appeared to show its fighters celebrating at the airport.

I really can not understand why the US troops haven't put all equipment together in one building and blew it to pieces. Or at least put heavy explosives in it and booby-trap it.....

The Taliban may not be able to get the helicopters and airplanes flying again. But I am sure they have mechanics who can make very good use of the armored vehicles left behind. Are the Americans so naive, stupid or don't they care at all???
