That’s believed to be among the most people ever flown in the C-17, a massive military cargo plane that has been operated by the U.S. and its allies for nearly three decades. Flight tracking software shows the plane belongs to the 436th Air Wing, based at Dover Air Force Base in Delaware.

Those weren’t planned evacuees. Those are all of the people who piled into the half-open loading ramp as soldiers were preparing for takeoff. They’re literally stowaways.

I see a LOT of fighting-age males on that flight that instead of fleeing, should BE FIGHTING FOR THE FREEDOM OF THEIR OWN COUNTRY.

“...should BE FIGHTING FOR THE FREEDOM OF THEIR OWN COUNTRY.”

From all I hear, Afghanistan isn’t one country, but a blob of land inhabited by about 50 separate tribes. There’s no sense of nationalism or fealty to a specific country. The place is 100% f**ked, and will remain so.

I do think PDJT could’ve organized a plan to improve things — IF he weren’t being sabotaged by his own military at every turn.
