Biden State Department Falsely Denies Taliban, Terrorist Haqqani Network Ties
Breitbart ^ | 08/27/2021 | John Hayward

Posted on 08/28/2021 2:12:04 PM PDT by DFG

The Biden State Department made the astounding claim Friday that the Taliban and its brother organization, the Haqqani Network, are “separate entities.”

In truth, the two are tightly linked, and many of the top Haqqani leaders – including self-described “Kabul chief of security” Khalil Ur-Rahman Haqqani – are also high-ranking Taliban officials.

Terrorism experts were thunderstruck by the State Department’s blatantly false assertion, which it appears to have made to deflect public outrage over the Biden administration entrusting the safety of Americans still trapped in Afghanistan to a U.S.- and U.N.-designated terrorist organization.

The Taliban’s Kabul security chief Khalil Ur-Rahman Haqqani – his last name should have been a clue for the Biden State Department – was designated a terrorist in 2008 by the U.S. government, which offered a $5 million reward for information leading to his arrest. The widely acknowledged deputy leader of the Taliban also happens to be named Haqqani: Sirajuddin Haqqani, who is also the number one leader of the Haqqani Network.

The Biden administration has entrusted airport security in Kabul to Haqqani and his operatives and has reportedly provided them with information about Americans trapped in Afghanistan, ostensibly so the Taliban will allow them to access the airport.

Just one more fatal miscalculation in a slew of them

The American people don’t care who is who over there.

All we do care about is 13 of our brave heros are dead and biden admitted he is responsible

The people that are running this former great nation are either incompetent or liars. Usually incompetency leads to lies. I vote vice versa with this administration.

If there is a good thing about the endless stream of deflections, distortions, fabrications, and outright lies from the Xiden administration, it is that no matter what they say, we know the truth resides elsewhere.

Further digging their hole in distrust.

Fully digging our hole in vulnerability.

Or something far worse. The “miscalculations” are starting to create a mosaic that is very disturbing.

“Locked on stupid...”

This would be like an Inspector Clouseau comedy if it weren’t so tragic.

Background: The Taliban appoints a leader of the Haqqani Network (a very vicious and violent organization that has close ties to al Qaeda, ISIS, the Pakistani Taliban, as well as the Afghan Taliban, and that is on the US terrorism list) as director of security at Kabul Airport.

The US delegates security for guarding the perimeter of the airport to Taliban security.

Conversation:

Taliban: Just give us a list of Americans, US Visa holders, and Afghans who have worked with you, and we’ll let them through.

US: Sure, man. Coming right up.

Unjust installation president = Perpetual cover up. All his apparatuses are complicit and that fact undermines every decision.

Governing by the consent of the governed is one thing. Governed by the consent of the Beltway bureaucrats is entirely another. Poison in the host takes its toll.

i’m suggesting the current president be known as ZOMBIDEN, the almost undead.

Thinking ... trying to make sense out of the past weeks.
No, trying to make sense out of the past year and half
Well.. trying to make sense out of the past few years.

I’ve lived thru wars.. through the 60s when rebellion broke out all over.. when people lost their senses..if they ever had any.

From Pat Boone to The Beatles... from radio to TV

And lately, from Christians respected to being the problem for the non Christian.

Our government is so rotten, ya can smell the stench and see the damage.

I don’t know why anyone wants to live in deceit, hate, and want to destroy what is left of good.

I was never comfortable in that environment.. but seems a lot are. What kind of life is it to be miserable!

Drawing a conclusion.. evil has become stronger and the Holy Spirit is finding fewer places to reside.
Churches have gone worldly in music and acceptance on what us sin and what is “ok”.

What is our foundation.. what/who is our master.. what do we allow in our homes and do we have a line to never cross.

When obama was in the seat.. he said he would “fundamentally change this country’.. and he said we are not a Christian nation.
His aim was.is to make us muslim.. and there are others doing likewise. God would have no use for us if we declared muslim beliefs.. He set us up as a nation on a hill.. successful beyond any other country .. we turn our back on His gift.. we would rue the day.

In closing..
As for me and my house, we serve the Lord God of the Heavens and Universe ..forever.
