This is literally what happened in Benghazi. The idiots in the CIA had built a warehouse next to where our ambassador lived and used it to store missiles. These missiles required training to use, so the CIA hired a bunch of former SEALS to train the locals how to use these missiles when they would fight proxy wars for the US government. So the locals would show up, SEALs would train them how to use the missile launchers, and the CIA would then give these militants a shipment of missiles to use in the future.I worked with a former Navy SEAL and he said one time, they spent days training military forces in some 3rd world shithole. One day, they came back from lunch or something and the guys they were training basically stole all their shit and never came back. Probably hundreds of thousands wasted only to get robbed and look like a bunch of fucking jack offs
Well of course the locals just ran and told members of ISIL that the CIA had a warehouse of missiles and weapons guarded by ten guys just sitting there. And within a few days the entire compound was overrun with jihadists who killed everyone. And stole all of the missiles. The CIA had 100 operatives on the ground who just fled and let everyone else die including the ambassador.
And stuff like this happened once a month in Afghanistan and Iraq for two straight decades.
