US Drone Strike Kills ISIS-K "Planner"
« on: August 27, 2021, 09:09:28 PM »
Not sure if this is true or not  ...

As seen on Fox News TV alert. Have not researched anything on it yet.

Am still fearful of what may happen to us on Sept. 11th.

Especially  if it is true re the Islam defeat at the "gates of Vienna."

:edit:

Especially with our southern border wide open and how they're vetting these "refugees" from Afghanistan.....on the aircraft enroute to the US.  :rant:

Just because the Pentagon thinks the "Planner" of the Kabul airport attack was killed in the drone strike doesn't make it so.

In short, NOTHING that the Asterisk administration says is true. This "report" smacks too much of face-saving, which is impossible for Asterisk at this point.

823 refugees airlifted on a C-17 last week.  Mostly males. 

Properly vetted? 

Friendly to the U.S.? 

You tell me, but I would have been very nervous if I was an aircrew on that plane knowing all it takes is one bad guy with any kind of explosive device to bring the entire plane down

Is the bidunce regime planning on dumping them in concentrations around the U.S. so they will eventually become a strong voting block and send another ilhan omar to congress?

Even if he was killed, there are more just like him.

I have already read a couple of articles saying the kill is unverified and if true the target a very small players.

This is essentially "hitting a camel in the ass."

Mostly males indeed!   :argh:

You are correct, it would only take one to bring the entire plane down! 

As far as " dumping them in concentrations around the U.S. so they will eventually become a strong voting block and send another ilhan omar to congress?"

While that is true, am more immediately concerned with having the savages among them being scattered throughout the country ...

Attacking and/or *raping* our women!  :argh:  :argh: :argh:

An analysis by a combat veteran turned Redstate contributor, streiff:

Quote
Two days ago, a suicide bomber attacked a security checkpoint at the Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA) in Kabul, Afghanistan. That airport is the main point of egress for any seeking to leave that sad simulacrum of a country, before US forces comply with the August 31 withdrawal deadline set for them by the Taliban.

Re-read that last sentence a couple of times to grasp the scope of our national shame. Thirteen Americans were killed: eleven Marines, one Navy corpsman, and one Army special forces soldier. Twenty more Americans were sufficiently wounded to require medical evacuation. One of the dead was USMC Sergeant Nicole Gee, who appeared in these widely circulated photos:

<snip>

Cut down to its basics; the US carried out a drone strike on an alleged ISIS-K planner…whatever that means…located in Nangarhar province. At its nearest point, Nangarhar is about 30 miles from HKIA. As it is unlikely this “planner” was minutely paralleling the province boundary, odds are he was in or near one of the handful of towns in that province.

For retaliation to be effective, it has to have three elements. It must be timely, visible, and it must be at least proportionate (my bias is towards disproportionate).

This exercise fails on at least two counts. Following up an attack that was an international story that took out 33 of your troops with an out-of-the-way attack that maybe killed one person does not say, “don’t do this again.” Rather it is a signal that you are weak, and it is open season on your people with no bag limit and no size restrictions.

Probably because they're nigh impossible to kill and easy to fix....

It was probably some poor shepherd sitting on the side of a hill minding his own business.

“ ‘Imminent Threat’ or Aid Worker: Did a U.S. Drone Strike in Afghanistan Kill the Wrong Person? “ - NY Times 9/10

https://www.nytimes.com/video/world/asia/100000007963596/us-drone-attack-kabul-investigation.html

https://sports.yahoo.com/us-drone-strike-military-called-211205239.html

“The US military claimed an August 29 drone strike successfully took out an imminent threat.

But a NYT report, based on newly obtained footage, suggests the strike mistakenly targeted an aid worker.

Ten Afghan civilians, including seven children, were killed in the strike.

The US targeted an aid worker with a drone strike in Kabul, mistakenly believe he was an ISIS-K militant preparing for a terror attack, according to a New York Times report. In the process, the August 29 strike killed 10 Afghan civilians, including seven children.“

.

Because third world peasant labor is a good thing.

It's the same thing as the drone-operator picking-up a machine-gun, turning, and firing into a crowd of onlookers.  This clearly looks like a war-crime.

Joey the Pedo strikes again.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
