Who's flying this C-17, an ISLAMIST?

I SERIOUSLY DOUBT they security screened them all. ONE Taliban with a suicide vest would KILL EVERYONE ON BOARD AND THE AIRCRAFT AS WELL.

WAS MARK MILLY FLYING THIS PLANE OR SOMETHING? UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE!

HAVE WE GONE INSANE? THEY SHOULD'VE MADE THEM ALL STRIP NAKED BEFORE BOARDING.

I was beginning to worry! I’m glad you checked them all out to make sure they were who they said they were.

Noticed that, too.

Perhaps, if they stayed and picked up a rifle...

A substantial number may well be COMMON CRIMINALS who came from the Taliban’s release of all prisoners from Afghani prisons. COMING TO A NEIGHBORHOOD NEAR YOU!

The following is foaf

off another news/ message board
from on ground report.

Journalists
are being executed outright
Christians are being executed
Missionaries executed
Westerners being executed
Any who worked with or for westerners being executed
Those trying to get to the airport being executed.
Girls 12 and above given as booty to tallies for sex slavery and marriage.

We will not get the majority of those thousands of u.s
citizens evacuated imho.

Pentagon presser knows nothing about our citizens
and when asked referred the questions to state department.

So it’s a good bet those afganies flown
to Wisconsin and Texas are probably mostly talies
to be let loose on our country imho

If they were trying to get as many out as possible
why fly halfway around the globe
instead of somewhere closer
where they could minimize the turn around time
and maximize how many could be evacuated?
No good reason so those evax flights
have suspicious motives imho.

And most of our citizens will be never be heard of or talked about again imho

And our forces on the ground might not make it out of afganistan imho.

Pray for citizens

"Blame the victim. People risked their lives working for us. Calling them terrorists is scummy.

Horrible.

I see we have a bleeding heart here. Do you know how they vetted the 640 people on the plane? They didn't vet anyone - the article specifically states that 800 people rushed the plane and they had to kick out 160 to take off.

Take your fake virtue-signaling somewhere else. Get ready for most people in America to dismiss your whining and bleating. The pity parade is over as things become more desperate and chaotic.

If you are so concerned about it I recommend you take the first flight to Kabul to straighten it out.

Other than Burkas, WHERE ARE THE MASKS?

No sweat, a C-17 can carry an Abrams battle tank, weight 60-67 tons.

640 Afganis wouldn’t be more than 140 lbs x 640 / 2000, or about 44 tons.

Piece of cake, as long as they don’t all move to one side of the plane.

Disgusting.

Drop the ramp and climb then an immelmann and climb again.

Put out the trash. We don’t need any more.

LOL — my recent Allegiant flight to Orlando looked similar, except more Mickey Mouse ears on the return leg.
