Clearly, someone told Biden he had to display his trademark empathy toward the conditions he precipitated. Does anyone tilt their head and coo over Biden’s commiseration with the Afghans and Americans he himself put in danger?

Gen. Jack Keane: “Wishful thinking to a fault”. Telling us to our face there’s no AQ left in Afghanistan… “This over the horizon thing... We lost our eyes and ears”. False impression we’ll be able to track the AQ. “He’s clueless”.

Biden says he is not aware of any Americans having difficulty getting to the Kabul airport. He should turn on CNN.

@clarissaward
: "WE had difficulty getting to the airport... It's very difficult... and it is dangerous."

We know for certain there are at least five:

I’m not mad, I’m not outraged, I’m not partisan.

Today I’m a Marine, an American, and a tired, hurting war Veteran.

Today, I’m sad, I’m heartbroken, and for the first time in my life I have no belief that I am safe or secure living in the country I love.

President Biden turned his back to shouted questions for the third time this week.

Minutes later, the White House calls a lid at 2:30pm.

The relationship between the Taliban and ISIS in Afghanistan is complicated. They are mostly bitter rivals, since they have the same base of supporters, but can also cooperate at times if their interests align.

Exactly, President is trusting the Taliban way more than his own military or NATO allies.

First POTUS I have seen that the MSM accepts a bald faced lie.  Even Clinton and Obama were challenged occasionally.

These pukes are sticking with the script, and are giving cover to this crimimal President.

[Hoodat]

The only hope that any of these people have is to get to the airport wall and have someone inside vouch for them.  If you are in the US and are communicating with an Afghan who is trying to get out, you literally have to be on the phone with a soldier inside the airport, get that soldier to locate your person outside the wall, and bring them over.

CNN's female reporter on the ground seems to think it is harder to get to the airport than the President.

Joe Biden doesn’t give us any confidence.

Nor do the two people wearing masks next to him.

Taliban Executes Journalist’s Family Member After Door-To-Door Search

The Taliban executed the relative of a journalist and seriously harmed another after a door-to-door search for the reporter in Afghanistan.

The unnamed journalist, who works for German state-owned broadcaster Deutsche Welle (DW), is one of several reporters the Taliban have hunted in the aftermath of the Afghan government’s collapse, the media outlet reported. The journalist is reportedly safe and currently living in Germany.

“The killing of a close relative of one of our editors by the Taliban yesterday is inconceivably tragic, and testifies to the acute danger in which all our employees and their families in Afghanistan find themselves,” DW Director General Peter Limbourg said in a statement.

They make pills in 7.62 and 5.56 that would clean out that congestion almost instantly.

And for more severe cases of congestion there's the extra strength 40mm HE pill.

 Or even MY personal favorite for extra heavy concentrations,the FAE delivered by B-52's. Guaranteen to get the Taliban high-stepping back to the mountains.

Kinda like killing roaches with a grenade,but useful in small deposits in areas where you catch them out in the open.

For current applications,maybe a few Spooky gun ships,just to remind them who they are messing with?

Update! It just occurred to me that most of you don't know what a "FAE" is. It is a big-ass bomb filled full of a jellied gas that explodes at a predetermined height above ground,and flat sucks all the oxygen out of the air before the burning fuel even hits the ground.

In short,crispy critters all over the damn place.

If only Germany had an ally to work along side them and partner with them to guarantee the safety of all their people.

Well, at least we got a moment of Comforter-in-Chief but now we’re back to talking about stuff that I don’t remotely trust this guy on. Again, to reiterate, I wouldn’t trust Trump any more than Biden on this, but again, that’s not the requisite standard.

@mystery-ak

I have no idea who Liz Mair,but she is too stupid to be allowed to post anywhere.
