Just like with Bin Laden, Biden was too chicken to order the attack.

Bombshell Report: US Knew About Kabul Bomber, Had Drone Lock but Didn't Take the Shot

https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2021...e-shot-n436410

But Pardo-Maurer went further in his interview. He said not only did they know where and when it would happen, but that they had a Predator drone lock on the bomber, but that “they” refused to grant permission to take the guy out. “[Permission] was requested and was denied,” he said. Why? “Because we are in this process of negotiating with the Taliban who aren’t even in control of their own government or their own people.”...

I read this a few hours ago … sounded so bizarre that I did some checking on both the former
Deputy of State (he’s also former Green Beret) and the interviewer & TV Station involved.

Station is Univision ( not what anyone would call Right Wing)
Interview was done by Jorge Ramos …. He is the Big Cheese at Univision.

Univision aired a bombshell allegation in the midst of its coverage of the United States' disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal. Per former Army Green Beret and Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Roger Pardo-Maurer, the Department of Defense had knowledge of the homicide bomber at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan, and scrambled a Predator drone only to order it to stand down as it locked on its target. Per Pardo-Maurer, the stand-down order was given in deference to negotiations with the Taliban.

Story has legs.

I'm sure you have said nothing against the drone strike on the car bombers.

if we had a lock on the suicide vest bomber ... why wasn't he ID'd via radio comms to the guys at the gate?

Do you really think for a second that a person piloting a drone had a shot at a suicide bomber heading towards American marines and civilians and didn't shoot because some pencil necked suit in Washington told them to stand down? A person who actually believes that has either been watching too many movies, or they are a complete moron.


And on top of that, we have no clue what negotiations are going on or what they are trying to accomplish. I doubt RedState has access to the American and/or Taliban negotiators.

Did not read the link, that's clearly obvious:

The first is false, but prove the rest, use the links you want....but lets hope they are not false.

Source is known to dabble in fake news/ conspiracy theory, from time to time.

I am patient and can wait for more or less to be revealed.

The people in charge of the corpse of Joe Biden hate Americans so not surprising that they assisted the Taliban in killing so many Americans. This is only a teaser of what they will promote happening to Americans during the time of China Joe.
