This makes Biden an accessory to gruesome executions.

Hate to quibble, but it doesn’t look like he’s being hung to me. Look at the angle of his body. He’s in a harness.
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.

I forgot to say, though it’s not that interesting.
I used to hangout with “Manolo’s” real life fiancee.
The Taliban don't know how to fly a helicopter
but since they all come from Pakistan ,
I am sure that there are Pakistani pilots willing to help.
Ever wonder why the Taliban don't fight during the winter ?
it's because they all go home in Pakistan !
And since you now know that,.. now, wonder why Biden decided to leave Afghanistan in the height of summer and the fighting season.
Most automobiles nowadays can be opened or started over the internet. For example, OnStar will open your car if you've locked your keys in it. It'll also "remote start" or turn off the car.
These helicopters aren't GM vehicles, but they MUST have some remote start technology. I mean, for a few zillion dollars, they MUST have a remote kill switch.
If they do, why in the wide world so sports is the American military letting the Taliban fly these things? Unless, they WANT them flying these helicopters....
So you are suggesting that we deliberately insert a device that can be hacked by the Chi-coms to disable our military equipment? BTW nothing is hack proof.
The question isn't whether or not such a killlswitch is a good idea, it's are such devices in the helicopters, and if so why haven't they been activated?
the nuclear arsenal may already be hacked and no one knows it. The US Army’s battlefield comms have already been hacked:

The other things are examples of things that don’t really matter.
Kill switches are a bad idea.
Besides this release of weapons is just another round of support to the military industrial complex since they will get build the stuff to destroy these weapons and this is not a situation where one would want to reveal that capability if we had it.
You're one full step ahead of me, DB. My presumption, from the start of this cluster, is that ALL of our equipment is trackable by GPS, whereby military intel (such as it is) can track to any country or cave and then act accordingly, depending upon the situation. Plus, if true, it would be a good way to track the tentacles of international terrorists and hostile nations, all over the world.
You called it.
If the noose was around that person’s neck it would have pulled his head off with the copter’s maneuvering/
