...as if we didn't expect it. Around 3am central time Special Forces connected with AFSOC deployed. No idea where as of yet, but was sudden, from a central CONUS base. Airmen had less than an hour notice to be on flight. I hope to God we're not going to push our luck "over there". This info came to me DIRECT from one deploying..

Did it actually really really happen? We are watching a movie.
The order by Trump to not allow the CIA to use Dept of Defense equipment, aircraft whatever... right before Trump 'left office' meant that when the DoD commands left Afghanistan, they would not have allowed CIA personal (direct and indirect) to be on board the DoD aircraft. This may have achieved the goal of departing Afghan (which Trump wanted to do), in way that Trump was not responsible (as 'Biden' did it), while leaving equipment for the Afghans to defend themselves, and while isolating CIA personal in a place where they were suddenly cut off and had not support/ride home. Also resulted in decrease in narcotics trafficking from/via Afghan and possibly reduction in human trafficking. Bonus; how much of the arsenal did not remain in Afghan? If it left, where did it go?
Interesting. Makes sense though and leaving the deep state CIA behind was fitting. I wonder how many they've killed thru the years.
And CGI. Remember the Afghans that were climbing on the wing of the plane and all fell off to their deaths as it was taking off? The first thing the Taliban did was to free people from wearing those damn masks.
I also noticed something weird about the video at that part: for a second the whole section with the people clinging to the plane faded to different shades of grey. Idk enough about green screens, shadows, etc to know for sure what happened there but it struck me as odd.
And not only that if you divide that time stamp by 17 you get CGI bullshit. :)
Don't forget look up videos of people standing behind active plane engines while taxi-ing.
Then look at that video and look at the crowd behind the engine (which is apparently super quiet, and producing no fumes) who are not getting blasted hundreds of feet away.
Or the people riding the front landing gear... who would otherwise get crushed... plus they almost look like they're pushing/ pulling the plane.
You also can't see the reae landing gear, despite the outward placement you should still see it even with the shadows..
Let alone the cockpit "glass"
Or lack of bolt patterns, or nose cone.
The people clinging to the plane were even taking selfies, like total assholes. I guess they weren't bothered at all by the deafening sounds of the engines right next to them.
Edit: Plus 9/11 coding right there on the plane.
Yea I thought it was a space mountain ride myself.....
And people think NASA is for real?
