This has got to be the Bee under another guise.
(But considering the last CIA ‘diversity’ advertisement, it’s hard to know...)
Idiots. If they are this blindsided, is it any wander they failed?
Short Term Contract Position.
ROFLOL !!!
Thought it was Bee.
There is a clause in the contract that their position may be physically terminated at moments notice.
If I hadn’t seen the fall of Saigon, this would all be funny.
I saw it on TV. Not every country is prepared culturally to fight. I’m not even sure the common Afghani sees himself as part of a country - he probably only identifies with a tribe.
Maybe Fredo will take the job.
There is an urgent need for social workers in Kabul.
Community organizers are also in short supply.
CRT instructors urgently needed!

I can advise the embassy from here for no fee: GET OUT NOW WHILE YOU STILL CAN!
Is Baghdad Bob available? If not, how about Adm. Kirby of the US Queens’ Navy? I’d actually want to send Ms. SakiofShit over there, forever. You know what the Taliban would due to an American redhead. At least she would deserve it!
