This makes Biden an accessory to gruesome executions.

WARNING! GRAPHIC!........... VIDEOS AT LINK......................
I tend to agree. I know that there are stories of botched hangings where they made the rope too long and instead of breaking the guy's neck, it ended up decapitating the guy (in at least one case, the gal). I'm thinking that with the distance this guy fell, the same thing would happen if he was being hung by the neck.
I'm sure, as someone else mentioned, the Taliban have easier ways of torturing people, but maybe in this instance they just did it because they could.
Oops! They certainly discovered the poppy...
They are not doing this just to scare “that guy”.
BINGO! And smiling when in the copter.
on you feet, or on your knees, ladies and gentlemen...
Blue Oyster Cult fan is not amused................
Not a Blackhawk and different setting - prolly same result though.
.
yup, dominance and submission...
only thing missing is the biden wearing a ballgag
Biden must be held responsible for this deadly debacle!
He is in a SPIE rig.
That's what it looks like to me.
Though, I can't be sure.
I saw them in 1978.......................
about the last time i saw them also...
saw the Bouchard Bros when Andy Hilfiger was still playing with them here years ago now
FYI
Live Updates: Viral video does not show man hanged from helicopter

A video which has been claimed to show a condemned man being hanged from a helicopter seized by the Taliban appears to have been misleadingly captioned.
The 11-second clip - which has over 2m views and has been shared thousands of times on Twitter - is blurred and doesn’t give a clear indication of what is going on.
Further footage and still photographs seen by the BBC show that the man flying over the city of Kandahar is very much alive. These images show him wearing the Blackhawk helicopter’s diver’s winch and waving the Taliban flag.
Several Afghanistan experts, quoting Taliban sources, have told the BBC that the flight yesterday was an attempt to fix a flag over a public building using their newly-captured US-built equipment.
The helicopter appears to be the aircraft which was seen taxiing at Kandahar several days ago after it was seized by the Taliban from the Afghanistan Air Force. One defence analyst suggests the aircrew probably defected to the Taliban with their aircraft.
US-trained helicopter winch operators wear the loop at the back, which could easily be mistaken for a noose in poor quality video footage. British RAF, Royal Navy and HM Coastguard divers, on the other hand, wear the loop to their front.

He’s a Taliban fighter waving a flag in victory. But the video is so grainy that you can’t really distinguish the lag from the person, and it looks like he is flopping around.
hung men don’t raise their hands.
Just what I thought. See my post #61.
