that was fast, even for ISIS

The Taliban searched them first. Then let them through the checkpoint to kill US Servicemen

Citing "military sources," the outlet said that "a fighter of the Islamic State were able today to penetrate all the security fortifications...

And Joe is sucking his thumb with the rest of the bedwetters.

People in the media trying their best to help Xiden by isolating the Taliban from this attack are, naturally, lying through their teeth.

• The Taliban control the country.
  
• The Taliban control Kabul.
  
• The Taliban control access to the Hamid Karzai airport in Kabul.
• The Taliban let hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Isis & al Qaeda out of prisons.

The Taliban may not have pulled the trigger on the suicide attack(s)...but they most certainly allowed it to happen at a minimum, and probably helped facilitate it.

Just flash your strap-on bomb and they wave you through

That last plane out is going to be a doozy.

God look after those guys.

[A strike]

Patiently awaiting instructions from our “Dr.”Jill, Susan Rice, ValJar/Hussein Osama triumvirate what to think.

[livius]

No, the Taliban is shocked, absolutely shocked. Remember?

AQ and the Taliban are rivals in other parts of the country, but the Taliban controls Kabul and there is no way this could have happened without their knowledge and approval.

[Liaison]

ISIS is good for graft and corruption. Shove money at a poor taliban guard to look the other way is normal. Why would the taliban want a bombing when they are in control of the country? ISIS f&$king with the exodus should be the last thing that want.

[PTBAA]

Tell us Taliban, who do you consider the “evil attackers”?

[aces]

Spot on...Biden is a traitor..

[blueplum]

you’re right - Tally man took over the country - this is their dinner plate. If the Isis ‘penetrated all’ layers, with a suicide vest and and and a car bomb, then the tally man let them in

[BiglyCommentary]

Taliban playing good cop to ISIS bad cop.

[Gene Eric]

Legitimizing the Taliban...

Nice try, DS.

[BiglyCommentary]

Taliban needed a reason to shirt circuit the evac so more hostages could be traded for the 9+ billion of central bank funds frozen.

[LegendHasIt]

I was thinking last night that I wonder if 0bama’s ISIS is really in Afghanistan, or if them being there is really just a false flag operation by JoeBama , the spy agencies and the media, to give the Taliban cover for their own atrocities, so that Joe can claim that their deal with him is still in effect.

[Wuli]

Taliban to ISIS: Either you guys make us look good, or we make you look like whimps, which is it?

No matter what the Taliban say, you know they cheered this.

[fishtank]

ISIS can run....

[Skywise]

Here comes the spin - it’s not the Talibans fault, it’s ISIS which Trump said he destroyed but he didn’t so it’s all Trumps fault!

Poor old Biden was just being a nice guy helping the poor Taliban out get their sovereignty back.
