Suicide bombers were in our sights...

And the DoD refused to give permission to take them out. If this is true the blood of all the American and Afghani dead are on the hands of this administration.

Former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Western Hemisphere Affairs Roger Pardo-Maurer spoke about the suicide bombing at the Kabul International Airport on Thursday, saying that the "Department of Defense already knew who the bomber was."

The suicide bombing, which took the lives of 13 members of the US Armed Forces, happed while evacuations of Americans and Afghan allies were underway during the final days of the 20-year war in that nation.
Director of MRC Latino, Jorge Bonilla posted the interview with Pardo-Maurer said the Department of Defense also knew "where and when" the attack would happen. He said that "a Predator drone had a lock on him," and that the DOD "refused to grant permission to fire upon that bomber."
He said that permission "was requested and was denied." In Pardo-Maurer's view, the reason for this denial is "Because we are in this process of negotiating with the Taliban, who aren't even in control of their own government or their own people."

The death toll in Afghanistan from the attack was over 100. The US is continued evacuations. Head of US Central Command General Frank McKenzie said shortly thereafter that more attacks were likely.
There are still Americans in Afghanistan, which the administration has said is in the "very low hundreds."

Joesama needs to hang for this. Sirius!

that's because the first line of action was to give the terrorist a few boxes of
mail-in ballots... not kill him. When the govt check and ballots didn't
arrive in time, he set-off the bomb.

I that is true than not only Biden also the secretary of state defense and the military command at the pentagon should be brought up on criminal charges.

They are not the problem. The people who voted for them are. They are ignorant of history and reality.

Very few voted for Biten. It's the corrupt vote counters who should be rounded up, tried for treason and summarily hung.

That should always be our answer.

They carry other non explosive munitions that open up what are basically swords. the bomb spins with them out and then can take out car loads with no explosives. Been in use for years.

When you care more for the other side than our soldiers, you think like this.

The liberals can't wrap their head around that fact. If we had landed the Japanese people would have been slaughtered.
