A bucket, a functioning faucet, and a bunch of duct tape, and you’re good to go.

Who was the last Zero lackey to show up in Afgan.
Hillary or probably that Ambassador. With the hatred of the leftie Dums, it could be any of these slimey cowards.
someone told Secret info to the Islamofascist.

AND WE ALL KNOW WHO HATES THE CIA.

Some of our best were killed because the traitors in DC had to help the enemy... heck the bastard in the Whitehouse is the enemy within. May GOD keep these heroes all and comfort their friends and family. I feel sick.

I operated out of FOB Chapman in 2004. I’m surprised it took this long to happen. Security was lax and many local nationals worked on the base or came in for the med clinic.
Big Green and the Agency are big time PC and trying to appease the Afghans, add complacency to the mix and you get whacked.

There’s no tip off, this is a firebase, 8km from the Paki border. Big time Indian Country. Al Queda and Haqqani Network
operate in the area. The enemy are at the gates 24-7. WE constantly had intel warnings of suicide bombers, but luckily
we never got hit inside the base.

These are the types of attacks that will cause the US to lose its nerve, and weasel out.

The Afghans NOW KNOW that we are leaving, they are starting to change their bets. This will happen more and more as we get closer and closer to leaving.

The Afghans must be thinking “Who will be our protectors next?”

Revealing and Flaunting your Method of Operations on 60 Minutes is destined to get you killed.

Do Henry Crumpton and CBS have blood on their hands?

Did the pseudo-revealing of Plame put anyone 6-feet under?

US big media is majoritively foreign owned.

ownership of media is a national security issue. Saudi Arabia should not have the outlet it does in CNN, Time, & etc.

CBS ownership can probably be tracked to foreigners also.

There is real treason from big media, and (lol) it goes unreported.

There are natural born traitors these days of course, but there’s still a lot more overseas than there are in the US.

Reads like the plot of a Vince Flynn novel.
