It was "done quickly" because the Taliban was actively trying to enter after the DoD ran the fuckin' clock out. There is no excuse for doing fuck all in advance (that i am aware of); both administrations screwed the pooch here, and people died as a consequence, both soldiers and afghani civilians who were abandoned by the US. It's disgraceful.
