Used American explosives.
That means the number of killed is getting close to that of the 1998 bombing of the American embassy in Nairobi, Kenya, which was accomplished by Osama Bin Laden’s organization, Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
This is so sad.
Wait to see what’s coming to New York City soon
Although the Pentagon initially said there were two explosions, they walked back the claim Friday afternoon and said it was only one.
Listen to empty rhetoric,wave the flag,watch the fire trucks and listen to bagpipes and simply think we actually did forget.
The ending of Afghani war is worse in some ways than ending Vietnam war. I do not recall any Americans left behind in Vietnam who wanted to leave. And no soldiers were bombed near the departing aircraft. Although 50,000 military casualties can never be lived down.
why no mention of the injured?
media were reporting 1,300 injured long ago - it was on RT plus it’s documented here.

while MSM tries to separate Taliban & ISIS-K (or whatever), it was the Taliban who released all the ISIS prisoners around the country.
From two suicide vests? Not buying it. It’s way beyond the normal death toll from these. Fact is there are too many bodies around the killer to absorb the blast and shrapnel.
Not buying this Special-K bullsh!t. It was the Taliban and quite possibly the CIA. Had to be snipers involved at the very least.
The Taliban group in charge of “security” at Kabul Airport have a history of expertise in suicide bombings:
How many American civilians killed or injured in the Islamic attacks? What is being done for them?
