Emergency services to U.S. citizens who travel to or remain in Afghanistan are severely limited.

D'ya think?

[Concentrate]

What did they think it was the day before yesterday, the French Riviera?

Wow, this is a very quick reaction by State Dept. standards.

[razorback-bert]

I was just rounding up investors in a new airline to serve Afghanistan called Bin Flying, oh well back to the drawing board.

Friends on another craft who accompanied us from the Galapagos to Panama last month were upset we did not care to do some touring in Columbia. We did not want to see the many beautiful farms in Columbia. I told the friends we'd do Bagdad next time.

Dammit! I was looking forward to a White Christmas in Kabul. Guess I'll have to go to Bagdad instead.

My point about State's Hungary somnambulance.

Yeah, I can hear the society types in New York City saying, "Let's do lunch at Romano's in Kabul".

[COB1]

I've got an idea about a new type of airlines which will be completely safe!!
EVERYBODY FLYS NEKKID!!
Yep, that'll solve all the old problems!
Might create some new ones......

The sad thing is, if the State Department did not issue this advisory, some Bozo would go there, get killed, and his family would sue the State Department for not issuing an advisory.

They don't call it "Foggy Bottom" for nothing.
