If there’s anyone in that shithole that deserves a ride out, it’s the guys our SOF vouch for and are personally vested in.

I'm sure that'll be forgotten by foreign nationals the next time SF needs to do real SF things, right?

Where are you hearing KIA?  I'm hearing 4 Marine causalities, which does not necessarily mean KIA.

Turkish news saying there were 2 explosions.



This photo was uploaded right before the first and is where the bomb went off.

Can you confirm actual KIA or just “casualties” for US Marines?

Roll back live footage @16 minutes and you can see the camera shake. It then pans toward the dust cloud.

The blood is on their hands.
They knew in advance of this attack (state department gave warnings) & did nothing to stop it.

We should pull our military out & carpet bomb the whole thing.

The US has already supported the Taliban fight IS-K. March 2020 I think, believe they dropped a few bombs.

"UK defence source confirms there were two explosions outside Kabul airport. One explosion occurred by Barons Hotel, followed by small arms fire, then a second explosion occurred by Abbey Gate. No UK military casualties, according to initial assessment"


UK Def also said one was a VBIED, most likely the hotel, as you can't get a vehicle close to the gate with the crowds.
