U.S. Embassy Kabul Announces ‘First Come, First Serve Basis’ for Stranded Americans at Airport

Wendell Husebø 18 Aug 2021

The U.S. embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, on Wednesday, announced a “first come, first serve basis” on flights for stranded Americans at the airport.

“Please be advised that a significant number of individuals have registered and space on these flights is available on a first come, first serve basis,” the embassy’s website reads. “You may be required to wait at the airport for a significant amount of time until space is available.”

The limited space on flights is compounded by the dangers of reaching the airport, which the U.S. government reiterated Wednesday it cannot guarantee.

The embassy’s website also reads:

THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT CANNOT ENSURE SAFE PASSAGE TO THE HAMID KARZAI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

A burka wearing waitress walks up to one of her tables in a Kabul outdoor cafe and is shocked to see three Taliban fighters, all sitting there masturbating violently.
“What the hell do you think you’re doing?” she screams.
One of the Talibanies looks up and says, “Well, it says on the menu, First come, First served!”

They've adopted the same incentive policy that Southwest Airlines uses.  Whatever Americans who manage to make it through the Taliban gauntlet get to sit in the exit row.
