NewsReal: Kabul Airport Atrocity - What Actually Happened?

The mass evacuation operation of several tens of thousands of Westerners and Afghans was brutally interrupted this week by what the media reported was a 'double-suicide bombing'. 13 US soldiers, an unconfirmed number of Taliban, and dozens of Afghan civilians were killed.

A group of dubious origin named 'ISIS-K', Western media reported, claimed responsibility for the attack. But the US military has since clarified that just one, not two, explosions took place, while some local eyewitness reports claim the majority of civilian casualties were in fact shot dead by US soldiers.

On this NewsReal, Joe and Niall take a closer look at what happened in Kabul Airport, and discuss what the atrocity portends for Afghanistan.

Is that like "Special K"?

Rowan Cocoan · 2021-08-29T20:39:53Z

Michael L Did you post this without seeing BBR's comment at infra? (They're nigh coincident in time.) If so, it's another example of SOTT synchronicity.

Best of the Web: CNN publishes 'eerily prophetic' interview with ISIS-K commander - Done BEFORE Kabul 'fell' to Taliban

CNN's airing of an interview with an ISIS-K commander left observers to wonder how the media outlet gained access to the terrorist leader - and protected his identity - two weeks before his group...

Excellent point Joe about how easy it would be to blow up any kind of bomb and conveniently call it a suicide bomber. Just like people can be taken out by making it look like a suicide, since nobody seems to care about the facts after a suicide has been claimed as the cause of death.

AmandaMay · 2021-08-30T05:20:40Z

bbrebozo I just started listening to this, but I've never believed the suicide bomber stories. Maybe because I just don't believe anything from the govt or media, and haven't for years. I just assume the CIA or US govt staged the explosions--since such explosions/"attacks" are usually used to justify extending military presence.

if you ever feel useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars and four US presidents to replace The Taliban with The Taliban.

Highland Fleet Lute I believe, HFL, that you have accurately summed up the situation!

AmandaMay · 2021-08-30T05:18:52Z

Highland Fleet Lute Oh it's even worse than that--I think back in 2001, the Taliban was only in control of parts of Afghanistan,but now after 2 trillion dollars, they now have control of the entire country. All deliberate of course.

Rowan Cocoan · 2021-08-30T05:20:12Z

AmandaMay Hey kid! How are you? RC

AmandaMay · 2021-08-30T06:03:55Z

Rowan Cocoan Hey RC- haven't been commenting here because lots going on - father ended up back at the hospital (it was back in March that a hospital almost killed him--went there totally functional, left there with ruined health and remained confined to a walker in the house). Maybe a month ago, he got much worse (basically dying) so no choice, back to another hospital, they put in 3 stents, sent him to cardiac rehab hell, then finally home. Tomorrow he goes back to the good hospital for heart valve replacement on Tues. Also had 2 broken computers, and for some reason was having trouble getting on this site and posting comments with my back up computer. Finally working tonight.

Hope all is well with you down in the free state of FL!

AmandaMay You too my dear. You've been missed. All my best wishes and prayers for you, your family and father.

About login losses, etc. I've come up with a very good way to make a memorable password. I use three to four parts.

I. A noun re personal property such as Kenmore, skates, whatever.

2. Add a number.

3. If work related, add a short work related # or word.

4. 3. Add the name of the login place such as SOTT.

(I don't want to get too specific with how I've done it, but it's really helped when computers have frized (hit by lightning just three weeks ago, etc.)

Do in order you like and be consistent.

Rowan Cocoan Excellent!! Thanks so much!!

bbrebozo · 2021-08-30T01:09:05Z

Yeah Niall, the latest flavor "ISIS-K" bombing - as the US is leaving with, currently, a very level headed and peaceful Taliban assuming power - the US/ CIA has got to keep the propaganda narrative alive of those crazy rag heads.

bbrebozo · 2021-08-30T01:21:35Z

Shawn of the Dead Joe. Ha, ha.

bbrebozo · 2021-08-30T01:34:39Z

Interesting point Niall, My understanding of ghosts, those who do not pass on, but linger in this world, are due to resentment, a unwillingness to forgive; or maybe, in order get justice, to set something right. Perhaps there will be a lot of ghosts produced by this medical lie/betrayal murders.

'Wait – the Taliban Offered Control of Kabul to US Forces...And We Turned Them Down?' [Link]

"...So, if we had taken control of the city, which we could have done, there would have been no Taliban checkpoints making access all but impossible. There would have been no beatings of Americans by the Taliban. No American passports would have been seized. We could have removed our citizens much more easily. Would it still have been chaotic due to the swarms of Afghan civilians trying to flee the Taliban? Probably—but perhaps processing them would have been smoother as well."

BTW, The Taliban also offered to hand over Osama bin Laden in October 2001, but Bush turned them down.

Are you not entertained?

The Taliban wanted Bush to stop bombing them IF they turned him over. [Link]

Here's another atrocity happening right now in New South Wales. [Link]
Indigenous Australians in rural areas are banned from shopping. If an indigenous person leaves their home for ANY REASON, they are fined by NSW police racists.

I am appalled and DISGUSTED with my country. And the chilling part is it only gets worse from here.

Rowan Cocoan · 2021-08-31T04:52:19Z

Tsidkenu We need to do a rescue raid for y'all down there but first we've gotta invade Afghanistan for our weaponry.

Hang tough.

Decades ago, Tom Clancy told us of the cardboard bomb. Explosives wrapped in paper dropped by a plane or nowadays a drone, that leaves no trace.... was designed as a 'car bomb'. 'Clear and Present Danger' was the title of the book.

Probably used at Bali, as well.

Rowan Cocoan · 2021-08-31T18:29:12Z

Patrick Donnelly Yup. And good point about Bali which was designed to kick up the fear in AU. Got quite a few surfers as I recall.

The unvaccinated should not be carrying any kind of viral load except during the few day early incubation period, as with any virus (after the few days they are sick in bed, in a hospital, or in a few days more, dead so no longer spreading a virus.). Many of the vaccinated have been shown to have a high viral load, and these vaccinated are likely to be spreaders as well as Petrie dishes for mutations. And many of these may be asymptomatic and so may be contagious for years. What a twisted narrative the MSM is spinning. All complicit in a planetary democide.

Thank you guys, excellent discussion and analysis. The scene of the explosion does seem bogus according the main narrative. And your take seems very likely. Enlightened. Thanks again for your research and thoughtfulness. .

Lobogris · 2021-09-05T06:08:16Z

Talk about mass delusion and hysteria check out this cartoon made sometime after the 1918-19 Spanish flu. You are quite right, we could have easily had a truly deadly pandemic arising naturally, but it seems like the PTB wanted to stay ahead of the curve and factor this engineered plague into their controlled demolition of the West and "The Great Reset". I had thought some years ago respecting an engineered plague that you might not want a too great mortality and infection rate R0 as you want enough alive to bury the dead.

As re a 2x post , you're fine. We've all done double posts. You got the hyperlink, the right bottom quote and reply boxes, etc..

Quote of the Day

"We have about 50% of the world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction."
