Distressing images show the barbaric reality in Afghanistan after the Taliban seized control of the country, with women and children covered in blood and militants patrolling streets with rocket launchers — all despite the Taliban’s promise of a more peaceful regime.Shocking scenes captured across Afghanistan on Tuesday — the day the Taliban’s longtime spokesman promised peace and an “inclusive, Islamic government” — showed militant mobs instead firing high-powered weapons in the air and randomly beating passersby.Video footage shared on social media also shows

9/11 took 3K lives in U.S.A. The next 9/11 will take at least 10K lives and it won't be in U.S.A., but in Kabul.

A whole country of seventh century barbarians now falling under control of a particularly barbaric, extra violent sub-group of the same seventh century barbarian death cult. Not a good place to be. Perhaps the people being subjugated could fight against these violent tyrants rather than just let them kill and beat them. Oh my goodness, what a silly idea I had. Never mind.

The religion of peace, could they be any worse if they were known as the religion of war? The next person who tells my that islam is the religion of peace, (can you hear me George Bush) I'm going to smack them up alongside their head. Islam is a satanic death cult.

FTA: “We will not seek revenge.” Lincoln worded it better and Democrats still violate it after 150 years. FTA: "We intend to hold them to that commitment". Jake Sullivan, NSA. Wasn't a commitment, just a comment. Before Biden we could hold them to things, now Jack can beg, threaten and complain. He could click a thumbs-down or send a frowny face emoji, it's all the mighty US has left.

Under pressure, State Dept. scraps plan

WASHINGTON—The State Department was forced to scrap a widely excoriated plan to bill US citizens $2,000 or more for their evacuation flights from Kabul.The hefty price tag drew social media outrage Thursday after it gained public notice.“In these unique circumstances, we have no intention of seeking any reimbursement from those fleeing Afghanistan,” State Department spokesman Ned Price said in a statement provided to The Post.The cost was publicly posted to a State Department website on Saturday but went largely unnoticed before it was highlighted by Politico’s military-focused newsletter Thursday.An unnamed State Department spokesman initially stood by the charge, telling Politico that “U.S. law requires that evacuation assistance

Like every national leader, the president of the United States has a prime obligation to safeguard the security and well-being of his citizens. And like his predecessor Donald Trump, President Joe Biden concluded that the presence of US troops and contractors in Afghanistan was having the opposite effect — that the American military deployment, as Biden put it on Monday, was “not in our national security interest.” Thousands of Americans had lost their lives in the course of the 20-year war since the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, when the Bush administration began targeting Afghanistan for harboring al-Qaeda terrorists. And Biden, inheriting

The MSM has been surprisingly unsparing in its criticism of President Biden's mishandling of the Afghanistan withdrawal. Earlier this week, for example, we noted NBC's Richard Engel giving a scathing evaluation of the fiasco, approvingly quoting a military source who said the situation is "100-times worse than Saigon."This morning, it was CNN's turn. New Day aired a report by correspondent Clarissa Ward from the Kabul airport. There, in addition to being roughly confronted by Taliban fighters, she was beseeched for advice by Afghans who had served as translators to US forces, desperate to get into the airport and out of the country.

President Joe Biden’s administration is telling Americans who are stranded in Afghanistan to pay for their own passage back to the U.S.“Repatriation flights are not free, and passengers will be required to sign a promissory loan agreement and may not be eligible to renew their U.S. passports until the loan is repaid,” the Overseas Security Advisory Council noted in its security alert for Afghanistan. “The cost may be $2,000 USD or more per person.” (Tweet) “The Biden admin is giving illegal immigrants free plane tickets to anywhere in the US but forcing Americans trapped in a terrorist-controlled country pay $2k to fly home,” Rep.

The US Capitol was put in lockdown while police negotiated with a man in a pick-up truck demanding airstrikes in Afghanistan to 'kick the Taliban's a**' and asking to speak to Joe Biden on Thursday before surrendering to police after a five hour standoff. The man in the truck is believed to be 49-year-old Ray Roseberry from North Carolina. At 9.15am this morning, he drove his black pick-up truck onto the sidewalk outside the Library of Congress, opposite the Capitol building. Congress is in recess so no elected officials are there but there are staffers who are still working in the Capitol buildings.

The Trump-hating news site ran a devastating -- and insightful -- analysis pinning the blame for the Afghanistan fiasco squarely on Joe Biden. Prior to that, the network had carried water for him, skewed the news, and engaged in sycophancy, to the point of ending up a target of James O'Keefe. Now it's The Atlantic's turn. Just this morning they ran three bam, bam, bam commentaries that also pinned the blame for the fiasco squarely where it belonged,

Having created one crisis after another – e.g., a broken economy, a broken border, a broken energy supply and, now, a broken Afghanistan – you’d think that Biden would at least step up and lead us into some brave new Progressive future. That, though, is not how Biden rolls. Instead, he’s either played the blame game, hidden at Camp David or in Delaware, attacked Republican governors, dismissed as bagatelles the horrors in Afghanistan, and generally been weirdly disconnected.

The same mainstream media outlet that faced backlash for lamenting the death of “austere religious scholar” Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is now facing backlash for drawing attention to the Taliban’s “sophisticated” use of social media.In a news report published Wednesday, The Washington Post claimed via “analysts” that the Taliban remains online and active on social media networks because they haven’t broken any of the rules.The piece might have possibly been able to evade backlash had the Post stuck to just reporting on the Taliban’s social media strategies.Instead, the Post chose to add a political twist by contrasting the Taliban’s online behavior with that of former President Donald Trump.
