Well, of course. It's hard to kill US soldiers in areas they are not in.
Granted that there are other actors, including elements in the Taliban itself, who'd like nothing more than to see the US retaliate and take out the Taliban leadership.
But it is just as likely the Taliban would try to set up some other actor.
What a mess.
Prayers for the families of our soldiers and allies and innocents killed or wounded.
True and most likely Pakistan assisted the Taliban with the takeover.
It was reported on 700 WLW radio noon news which is an ABC news report, and they mentioned from NYT. If you watch any of the Twitter videos you will see that that is probably an accurate number, probably low. WSJ now reporting 4 Marines killed.
Don’t tell me what I heard on the radio with my ears.
Yes, Taliban has already negotiated with China for the development or further development of the TAPI gas line.
Pretty good observation, considering we knew about and warned Americans to leave the airport because of an "imminent" attack, yet our troops were instructed to hide out in safety and let it happen.
Source?
“My point is nothing will happen.”
Then no more United States (which is probably against the Constitution too).

I said I don’t see that written on the NYTIMES site. You sited NYTIMES. You didn’t say raidio.
You ay be correct.
I’m asking if you have a link. Not being insulting, just want some real news.
U no what they say about the law - applies to history as well - also “those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it - time to spend some time in a real library with real books and away from digital history.
We aren’t a Constitutional Republic any more. That ship has sailed. I don’t know exactly what to call what we are now, but I know what we aren’t.
WWs and PAPs will need both airports due the high volume of personnel and vehicles.
I used to spend tons of time in library stacks.

At least 10 US service members have been killed outside the airport in Kabul — from US officials according to our Pentagon team.

multiple reports of a new (third) explosion in Kabul
nor sure if its at the airport or not
Who'd be stupid enough to believe that? Radical Muslims kill differing Muslims with more relish than they kill Christians.
Probably did since they left early.
It sounds to me more like the Turks bugged out because they knew their identity would NOT protect them.
