At least 60 Afghans now reported dead including 4 us marines.
These morons are going to fuss around until Biden is forced to put in more troops. What an unholy mess and its only going to get worse.

The lobbying for his animals to leave has been distasteful given the many people who will be left behind
He has 65 employees and their families who were also in the airport at the time of the attack. Who now can't leave as Biden changed policy on what documents are required.

Him being a British citizen kind of helps.
He has plenty of British citizens in his employ, who unfortunately don't look like him. The Taliban aren't letting people through now even if they UK passports but look Afghan.

From what I heard the animals were going in the cargo hold of a privately chartered plane
the rest of the plane would be given over to refugees who otherwise might not get out.

All this “Shocking” & “Tragedy” commentary……it’s all entirely predictable. Why is anyone surprised about events of the last few weeks. It was never going to end well.

How anyone who does a thing like that can possibly think they're dying for anything besides pain and misery I've no fucking idea. If your cause requires this, then it's a shit cause. If your god requires it, then he's a shit god.

Yes, it was, but remember we’ve had two weeks of dissembling shit from Biden and the rest of the elite PMC:
‘we’ve accomplished our mission’
‘The Taliban are no longer murdering fascists, they even think women can have a life’
‘We think the Taliban will reach out as they need x from us
‘The terror threat has receded’
‘Stay strong sisters’
‘Leave Joe alone, it’s all Blair’s fault’
For anyone gormless enough to believes a word of their shit it probably is shocking and tragic. The rest of us could see it coming a mile off
Things can be not surprising, even expected and predicted, and yet still be tragic and shocking.

Oh god. Biden's quoting the bible
He also fumbled about with the rosary he keeps in the right-hand pocket.
Oh dear. I don't think even Trump was that overtly religious. Well not to a deity other than money.

Apart from Trump and the ostentatious bible grasping.

Just watched a bit of that. First time I’d heard Biden speak actually .
I can see why my friend in Florida (a Democrat voter) calls him “Uncle Joe”

As an aside, Chomsky makes the convincing case that the US war in Vietnam was not a "failed venture" but a success - the US successfully stamped out the spread of Communism in this corner of SE Asia - primary objective achieved.
