#5 UK paratroopers are rescuing trapped British civilians

Meanwhile

General Milley — We’re still working on it…
Lloyd Austin — We can’t do it…
Clarissa Ward — No way in hell Americans can get to the airport…

#7 Make on call to the Pakistani Government and tel them that all US aid, access and military cooperation will end immeditely if the Taliban doesn't find every USCit by name and escort them to the airport. The entire farce is that we have no power, when in fact our money and access to the financial systems we control can't influence this completely. The Taliban are creatures of Pakistan, and we know it and have for decades. WE just have forgotten how to act like America....

#8 What's this Aug. 31st bullshit? Is there some fuggn tide problem? Aircraft powered by moonlight? Gotta be a Blue Moon?

This farce of a team isn't setting the tempo, measure, or even picking the genre for the piper to play, but Aug Thirty-One it is then.

#10 All Americans. Even the non-vaccinated ones?

Tip of the hat to the UK Paras and contractors for doing what needs to be done.

#11 Yes, especially considering nobody over here gave the UK/NATO any coordination or even a heads up.

#14 Feeling lonely, a long way from home?
Remember, all roads lead to roam:
Just duck by your dealer's
And pick up the Wheeler's
Impossibly timely old tome!
