I’m sure our military will honor the warranties for Talibans.

I don’t know what you mean by ‘our military’; but to me, the Military is composed of the people who actually put their lives on the line.

Every Afghan vet I’ve heard from is working desperately to get his own contacts out of there.

You’d think one of them [plane] would have been taken out by a shoulder fired missile or RPG.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

They’re waiting on the big, heavy transport planes full of US military. It’s the HKIA ‘Alamo’ ... they could also take out the runway, trapping our guys ... then they “swarm, pursue, humiliate” (Michael Yon’s description of how they fight). Praying none of this happens, there are no more deaths & our troops can evac safely.

Does the suicide bomber know that Biden and Senator Blumenthal proclaimed they’re putting an end to the “Forever Wars,” and he’s not supposed to do that?

Was doing a search and found this article from The Jerusalem Post dated August 18th, 2021:

Netanyahu rejected Kerry’s Afghanistan-style solution for Palestinians

In 2013, Kerry invited Netanyahu on a secret visit to Afghanistan. Kerry recommended that Netanyahu go in disguise. Kerry wanted to show Netanyahu "in his words, how the US established a local military force that can stand up to terror on its own.”

Bwwaaa haaa haaaa!!!

"Netanyahu said he 'politely declined,' and that he thought at the time that Afghanistan would fall apart once the US left."

Which is precisely what happened.

Too bad there was no airport with a 1/4-mile external buffer for enhanced security.

I said that last night. One RPG all it would take. Or something they got that Pig Face Bidet ordered left behind.

This “threat” was probably made up in the Pentagon, given to Adm (probably Rear Admiral) Kirby and that lying red-headed Biden Admin. bitch, Sakofshitski to foist off on liberal, brain-dead Americans who would believe them if they said that eating dog crap would prevent getting the Coronavirus.

And this is not a /SARC.

I thought the U.S. Embassy in Kabul was evacuated and empty. Who was issuing this alert?

Good for the pilot to take a stand.

We’ll have to end up with vigilante justice at home.

I thought it was completely evacuated too and yes, I’d like to know who’s giving the alerts.
