U.S. Embassy tells Americans NOT to go to Kabul airport due to security threats: Warning comes as Pentagon again contradicts Biden's claim there's 'no indication' the Taliban is stopping citizens
"The U.S. Embassy issued a stern warning to Americans on Saturday not to go to Kabul airport because of 'security threats' outside its gates - reportedly coming from ISIS - a day after President Joe Biden vowed to bring citizens and Afghan allies home.
U.S. officials said the most serious threat to the airport is Afghanistan’s branch of the Islamic State, which would hurt Americans in the country and challenge the Taliban's control, The New York Times and Associated Press reported.
Minutes after, Biden said the mission to destroy Al Qaeda in Afghanistan was a success and that he knew of no circumstances where Americans had been unable to reach Kabul airport.
He was flatly contradicted by the Pentagon shortly after the speech.
Yes, Al Qaeda remains present in Afghanistan, Kirby said during a briefing, and yes, he was aware of reports of Americans being beaten by the Taliban as they tried to reach safety."
Biden is like Hitler, telling his people, we are in control, and winning on the Russian front.
Tweeting from the airport this afternoon, journalist Kim Sengupta said he had witnessed 'four people, all women, die from the heat and crush'.
Sky News' chief correspondent Stuart Ramsay also reported that people at the front of the crowd of thousands were being 'crushed to death', in what he described it as 'the worst day by far' at Kabul airport.
In a sign the crisis at Kabul is deepening, Germany's government today warned that access to the airport is not often possible' and that the area remains 'extremely dangerous'.
The Swiss foreign ministry also postponed a chartered evacuation flight from Kabul, saying the situation at the airport has 'deteriorated'.
As much as I hated O'Bama, I don't think he would of left Americans to fend for themselves. I remember he authorized the Navy Seal Hostage Rescue of Jessica Buchanan in Somalia, a humanitarian worker.
Ummm................ who do you think is calling the shots behind the scenes?

This is a dynamic scene. The call noit to go to the airport was made once they realized that the Taliban increased their presence because of the leaders flying in.
So are you saying --- the military should have informed Biden, Biden should have updated the situation and then the military issue a formal statement?
I like the military in Kabul being able to issue updates without a dog and pony show.
And again, it’s not the leaving that is at issue. It is how it was done.
The president has been delusional for some time now. The fact that the world knows that he screwed the pooch and produced a world wide calamity on a global level. If you don't believe that and that PEOPLE HAVE DIED and will be murdered and hung and burned to death then YOU ARE BEING BADLY PLAYED
