Pentagon Unaware Of State Department Security Alert Telling Americans Not To Come to Kabul Airport
SUNDAY, AUG 22, 2021

In keeping with the FUBAR dynamic… a deeper, perhaps more concerning, picture is emerging. The Pentagon held a press briefing today with Defense Department spokesperson John Kirby and Maj. General Hank Taylor. After initial comments, the first question was about the State Department telling Americans not to attempt to come to the airport. Kirby and Taylor did not know about it.

Maj General Taylor admitted, “I’m not familiar with that directly.”
