| Okay, welcome back here in the War Room. | ||
| It is Thursday, 26 August, Year of Our Lord 2021, now with over 80 million downloads on the podcast. | ||
| Of course, we're live everywhere. | ||
| We really want to thank our broadcast partners, Real America's Voice, John Frederick's Radio Network, GNews, GTV, getting this in Mandarin, and we're live everywhere, Brazil, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, the United Kingdom. | ||
| And of course, Germany. | ||
| I want to go now to, by the way, some breaking news. | ||
| Terrorist strikes at various entries to the Kabul airport. | ||
| The airport was, you know, people were warned not to go there starting last night. | ||
| It hit as soon as we came on the air, before we came on the air. | ||
| It's been reported, or has not been confirmed by the government right now. | ||
| I want to make sure everybody's checking everything. | ||
| But it's been confirmed by contractors on the ground that The four KIAs look like could be Marines. | ||
| Multiple injuries, multiple casualties. | ||
| We can't show you the footage, although we're trying to clean some of it up. | ||
| It's quite horrific. | ||
| If we can, if Real America's Voice, when we clean up some of that footage, you can play it, because quite the, it's just extraordinary how bad it looks, this coordinated attack. | ||
| We've got Sam Faddis, we've got Colonel John Mills, who's on the Joint Staff from CENTCOM and the Pentagon. | ||
| He'll be joining us, but I want to go to Turkey. | ||
| And basically in 30 days from now, there's a major election in Germany, right? | ||
| And one of the big topics on the table is exactly this globalist program. | ||
| We've got the leader, one of the senior leaders of Alternative for Deutschland with us. | ||
| She joins us live from Turkey, Beatrice von Storch. | ||
| Beatrice, with an election 30 days away, you're not one to take vacation. | ||
| Why are you in Turkey today, ma'am? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well we're just trying to figure out what's going on here on the Turkish-Iranian border because we do not want to have another refugee crisis like we had in 2015 from all those from Syria crossing in finally to Germany over Turkey. | |
| And what we have been told Is that there are something like 1,000 people crossing the Turkish-Iranian border at the very moment, every day, even though Turkey is building up a wall at their border to the Iranian area. | ||
| So this is what draws our attention to. | ||
| And we also get the news that something like 4,000 Afghans are leaving per day towards Pakistan. | ||
| So what we see that there is an increased danger of having a second huge refugee crisis this time from people coming from Afghanistan. | ||
| Okay, so I want to go back to 2015 because the populist movement and the nationalist movement in the United States was triggered by the financial crisis of 2008. | ||
| The populist and nationalist movement in Europe was triggered by the refugee crisis of 2015, basically initiated, right, by the war in Syria, the situation in Syria, but Angela Merkel. | ||
| Walk our audience through what 2015, what happened there, why it happened, and why you're so concerned today as one of the senior political leaders In the world, on the political right, why you are concerned enough about another refugee crisis that you're actually in Turkey today, 30 days before a major national election? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, what we have seen in 2015, that was 1.5 million refugees finally ending up in Germany, and we cannot handle this. | |
| And what we fear now is that we have again a crisis like 2015. | ||
| We talked to Afghan refugees, at least they told us they were Afghan refugees, and they were heading towards Turkey and then to I mean we met them in Turkey and they are heading towards Germany so and they declared themselves so we have got really people fleeing from Afghanistan and we have those who for economic reasons are now even leaving Iran to Turkey and then go to Germany. | ||
| We do think we need a global contact global compact on border security rather than a global compact On migration. | ||
| And this is what we try to figure out. | ||
| And I think this should be the message. | ||
| And what Erdogan is doing at the Iranian border is right. | ||
| He's building up a wall. | ||
| Even though there is a wall, 1,000 people are coming here per day. | ||
| Even though there is a wall, not all over the border, but still for some area there is a border. | ||
| And we see that the situation would be even worse When we would just leave the border away. | ||
| So I think the important thing is to know that if we want to have a secure Europe and secure continents, then we need to have secure borders. | ||
| And I think we have to agree upon this internationally within the nation states. | ||
| Let's go and work for a global compact on border security. | ||
| Beatrice, this is what I think would be confusing to an American audience right now. | ||
| If you can help explain. | ||
| Plus, you know, you're being listened to and watched in Australia and Brazil, all throughout the world. | ||
| And by the way, we're in Mandarin and in Japanese also. | ||
| What people would find confusing right now is when we see footage every day coming out of Germany, it's of these kind of massive lockdowns and this enforcement of both look like mass mandates, vaccine mandates. | ||
| I mean, Germany looks like one of the countries in the world that's almost, you know, Australia is trying to follow Germany. | ||
| How can you even have a conversation, or explain it to the American people, how can you even have a conversation among the political elites in Germany and the business elites to even consider another migrant situation when it looks like you are one of the super states of extreme mandates regarding the CCP or the COVID-19 virus? | ||
| Ma'am? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, I mean, we are talking here to officials in Turkey from the European Union, and they just don't even want to talk about closing down a border, actually. | |
| And in Germany, the debate is different. | ||
| Everyone says we cannot have another 2015. | ||
| But at the same time, they are not willing to send out the message like the Australians did. | ||
| No way! | ||
| We have to protect our borders. | ||
| We have to help on a humanitarian basis. | ||
| But we cannot have the repeat of what has been going on in 2015. | ||
| And what we fear is that this situation gets out of control again. | ||
| And that in the end, people who are coming to Turkey I will then head over and move on to Europe and then to Germany. | ||
| And this is what cannot happen. | ||
| And this is why we are having a close look here, right here, where it happens, where it starts. | ||
| I want to finish with about Angela Merkel. | ||
| I understand she's not in the position she was before, but she's still, at least from people in the United States and others, one of the most powerful political figures as a globalist around. | ||
| Where do you believe the German people think of her now, and in the next 30 days as you guys go out and campaign, what's the message? | ||
| What's the principal message that Alternative für Deutschland is going to be putting forward, and what are you bringing back from your trip to Turkey and to the Turkish border that you'll be able to share with your German fellow citizens? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, what we say is that Angela Merkel still stands for the global compact on migration. | |
| So basically she agrees and still agrees upon the idea that everyone has the right to move wherever he wants. | ||
| And the position of Alternative for Germany is quite the contrary. | ||
| We need a global compact for border security and we have to stop this unlimited numbers of people moving to other countries. | ||
| And we have to intensify our humanitarian aid. | ||
| This is what we all want. | ||
| But we cannot have to have another 2015 and still Angela Merkel is still supporting the global compact on migration and that is just a disaster and maybe last last word and the internal minister Zeehofer just came out with a number that he expects 5 million Afghans willing to flee Afghanistan and these are numbers who've been and he's been agreed upon by Turkish officials we've met here at the Iranian border so they also talk about | ||
| Based on something like 5 million Afghan people who might flee. | ||
| And who might go to Turkey and maybe go then move on, move on to Germany, not within a few days, not maybe within a few decades and not decades, but more than two weeks or three weeks, but within a time. | ||
| And this is a huge threat. | ||
| And we know that the basic politics of all other parties in Germany is what is the idea behind the global compact on migration. | ||
| And that is unlimited and legal migration for all people in the world. | ||
| And this has to be stopped. | ||
| Beatrice, I just want to ask that one more time about the 5 million. | ||
| You're saying that you're hearing now from Turkish officials and even from the Interior Minister of Germany that they anticipate it may be as many as 5 million Afghanis. | ||
| I think the Afghan population is around 37 million. | ||
| That 5 million would actually be leaving the country in some way and that that might actually be the At some point in time, not today, not tomorrow, but at some point in time that as many as five million may actually try to become migrants or refugees and head towards the borders and eventually get to Turkey and then possibly get up to Europe. | ||
| Is that the point you were making? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Yeah, and this has been made by someone of the Foreign Affairs Ministry, but of the Minister himself. | |
| So he was talking about 5 million. | ||
| And we talked to officials here from members of Parliament and from refugee organizations, NGOs, and they both agreed upon the number of 5 million is realistic. | ||
| So we're not talking about a few thousands who've been working for the Western states to help out in Afghanistan. | ||
| But we're talking about a few millions who might be willing to leave. | ||
| And this is a global problem and we have to solve it. | ||
| And I think the most important thing at the very moment is to send out a strong signal. | ||
| That we're willing to help on a humanitarian basis, but not by letting in the people to our country, at least. | ||
| What we, of course, support is the idea of helping those people fleeing to their neighbor states, close to Afghanistan, their culture closer to them. | ||
| It's easier for them to integrate in those societies rather than in our societies. | ||
| So it's much better and it's a better idea for the Western world if they want to help and we want to help. | ||
| To support the neighboring states of Afghanistan to take some people in to rescue them but not to make them move to all of Iran and then Turkey and whole of Europe and end up in the north of Europe. | ||
| This is not the way we can solve this global crisis. | ||
| Beatrice, is there social media that people we can put out and put up on our website in our live streams and chats? | ||
| Do you have, are you on social media? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Sorry? | |
| I didn't get that one. | ||
| Are you on social media? | ||
| You're on Twitter or Getter or Facebook? | ||
| How do people follow you? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Everything. | |
| Everything. | ||
| I'm under my name, Beatrix von Storch, on all those channels. | ||
| So Telegram, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, everything. | ||
| Beatrix von Storch. | ||
| Yeah, I want to make an announcement that for the next 30 days, starting tomorrow, we're spending a lot of time focused on this German election. | ||
| Very important. | ||
| Germany on September 26th, France will be next May, Brazil next October, and of course the American midterms in November. | ||
| These are the big elections about the Nationalists versus the Globalists throughout the world. | ||
| Beatrice van Stortz, thank you very much for coming in from Turkey. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| Great connection, by the way. | ||
| I want to thank Real America's Voice. | ||
| Just fantastic job on our own production team. | ||
| I want to go back to Sam Faddis. | ||
| Sam, thank you for doing this, for co-hosting, for volunteering for this. | ||
| I really appreciate it. | ||
| Any updates, Sam? | ||
| And maybe you can hit the rewind button again and just let our audience know what the latest is. | ||
| I'm going to ask you about vetting since you're an old CIA warhorse about the vetting process that Beatrice is kind of implying. | ||
| Talk to us. | ||
| Any updates, Sam, of what you're hearing? | ||
| Well, to rehash what we've had is two improvised explosive device detonations at two separate gates to the Kabul airport. | ||
| Initially, there was some indication they might have been car bombs, and now it looks like they were suicide bombers. | ||
| We have apparently four U.S. | ||
| Marines dead. | ||
| We're hearing that from multiple sources, although the U.S. | ||
| government hasn't confirmed that. | ||
| Still, the number of total dead is set at 11, but that may go higher. | ||
| Unknown number of wounded. | ||
| The gates are being welded shut. | ||
| The evacuation is over. | ||
| The latest thing that I literally just got in, the source of this is on the ground in Kabul, is that at some point last night in Kabul, a two-star general with the 82nd ordered a group of 100 Christian missionaries who had come onto the grounds of the airport | ||
| With 300 Afghan children, I'm being told, ordered them to go outside the perimeter, put them back out the gate and told them they would have to wait for their charter flight outside. | ||
| They were, according to this report, in the immediate vicinity of at least one of these explosions. | ||
| So unknown how many of them were killed. | ||
| The Turks were apparently providing the external perimeter security. | ||
| Around the airport, but the Turks withdrew, so there was no external perimeter security that went in to replace them. | ||
| Again, we've confirmed all the gates are closed, the doors are being welded shut, the evac is over, and there's no official USG response to any of this yet, as far as we know. | ||
| It's pretty extreme. | ||
| Well, I'll tell you what. | ||
| Let's take a commercial break. | ||
| We're in return. | ||
| We've got Sam Faddis. | ||
| We've got Colonel John Mills. | ||
| We're going to be joined by Brian Kennedy of American Strategy Group, formerly at Claremont. | ||
| We're going to have, trying to track down Michael Young. | ||
| We've got other sources in country we're going to try to tap into. | ||
| Maybe get them on air. | ||
| Short commercial break. | ||
|
unidentified
|
We'll be back in the War Room in just a moment. | |
| Okay, welcome back to our live coverage of the event of Kabul Airport. | ||
| You're in the War Room. | ||
| Sam Faddis is working to double-check, and we're trying to check again that explosive story he just reported about what happened last night. | ||
| I want to go to Brian Kennedy for a second. | ||
| Brian joins us, American Strategy Group. | ||
| Brian, you and I have talked about the last couple of days to put a framework of this. | ||
| We just had Beecher van Storch, an alternative for Deutschland, join us from the Turkish border. | ||
| She's down there with 30 days to go because they understood Weeks ago, what was this was going to trigger a massive tectonic plate shift in not just European politics, but in European culture and civilization? | ||
| Because we have after 20 years, let's be brutally frank. | ||
| What has happened? | ||
| The globalist project. | ||
| Remember, that's why we've been over there for 20 years. | ||
| It was Sam Faddis and the jawbreakers and the pipe hitters of the paramilitary, the CIA, and others that took down al-Qaeda as an operating unit. | ||
| Didn't get Osama bin Laden, but took him down as an operating unit, I think within two or three weeks, or a couple weeks, because the Taliban, you know, Kandahar fell, Kabul fell, all of it, starting, I think, October 7th. | ||
| By the end of October, it was over. | ||
| Okay, that was 20 years ago. | ||
| The globalist project was then to nation-build a state in our image and likeness, right? | ||
| Among 50 tribes. | ||
| Not a country, but 50 tribes. | ||
| Not learning the lesson of the Soviet Union, not learning the lesson of the British Empire, not even learning the lessons of Alexander the Great and the Greeks, right? | ||
| Three pretty good, you know, empires that knew how to run things all collapsed there. | ||
| And so the Globalist Project, and you saw Andrea Mitchell yesterday with the sad face, you know, chopping up the pencil neck over the State Department, Tony Blinken, about how hapless this is. | ||
| And so, Brian, put it into perspective. | ||
| You know, Eric Prince, we had Eric on before I had to take a flight. | ||
| He's in the region, but I had to take another flight. | ||
| And Jen Psaki, from the White House, they called him soulless. | ||
| Because he's putting himself in harm's way and answering calls literally from thousands of organizations and individuals. | ||
| Can you please help? | ||
| Because you're a brave guy and you've done this before and we need help because the American government, the American regime under Joe Biden, right? | ||
| And Jen Psaki and Tony Blinken and Jake Sullivan, they just left it. | ||
| They've cut and run. | ||
| They've left this to these devils. | ||
| So, Brian Kennedy, can you put this in perspective before we go back to Colonel John Mills and Sam Faddis? | ||
| Well, great to be with you, Steve. | ||
| I've made this argument on The American Mind in this article where I'm trying to, in putting it in perspective, I don't think this is incompetence on the part of the Biden administration. | ||
| I think they mean to do this on purpose in order to demoralize both the American people And the American military. | ||
| This wasn't like Joe Biden made one rash decision and then everybody decided to bug out. | ||
| You had the entire military apparatus. | ||
| You had the entire state department. | ||
| You had the intelligence community. | ||
| Give this the green light, knowing that in Afghanistan, the Taliban was going to run us out of the country, try to humiliate us and make America look bad. | ||
| We knew that was going to happen and we did it anyway. | ||
| It strikes me that this is kind of, this is really the Great Reset. | ||
| Getting America off the world stage in the most humiliating way possible, getting places like Afghanistan to blow up, have millions of migrants go throughout Europe during this pandemic where there's chaos ensuing everywhere. | ||
| This is, again, you often say that there's no conspiracies, but there are also no coincidences. | ||
| This is not a coincidence. | ||
| This is a plan on the part of the U.S. | ||
| government to get us out of Afghanistan in the most embarrassing, humiliating way possible, because they do not respect the United States and they want to demoralize the American people. | ||
| Wow. | ||
| I want to go to Sam Fetz. | ||
| By the way, we can confirm right now. | ||
| We're going to Sam for that. | ||
| We can confirm right now. | ||
| It's unknown at the amount or the number, but it's been reported by other news agencies that children are included in the 13 people that have been at least recognized as being injured right now. | ||
| I don't know if there's any deaths among the children, but children are. | ||
| And the footage we're seeing, the raw footage, which we can't put up right now, is pretty horrific, but it's got combinations of children and adults. | ||
| Sam, you're a former CIA operative, been in the region for many, many years. | ||
| You know the neighborhood. | ||
| You've seen what's going on. | ||
| You've been terrific at kind of framing this from the very beginning, from months and months and months ago. | ||
| Is Brian Kennedy right? | ||
| Are these acts of commission or principally acts of omission? | ||
| Well, I think that's the fundamental question. | ||
| You either have to say that this is all due To absolutely staggering and unprecedented levels of incompetence where you've got to entertain the notion that, as Brian suggested, we're seeing something more than that. | ||
| Personally, I'm inclined to agree with Brian. | ||
| You have an entire administration, including the president, that were bought and paid for by the Chinese a long time ago and have bought into the narrative that we are the declining power and they are the new superpower. | ||
| So at a minimum, you have to say they are not working on our behalf. | ||
| Two quick notes. | ||
| One, I just heard that from one of the attacks alone, in addition to American military personnel killed, we have 50 plus Afghans dead at that one attack alone. | ||
| I don't have any more details. | ||
| And secondly, just for the record, the props for taking down the Taliban go to Gary Bernsen and Gary Schroen and the guys that took in the Jawbreaker team. | ||
| They were the Jawbreakers, right? | ||
| The two Garys? | ||
| Very famous, incredible book, incredible bravery. | ||
| Gary Schroen actually came out of retirement to get onto an old Russian helicopter with seven other guys and chopper into Afghanistan. | ||
| They were the only Americans on the ground. | ||
| They were the very tip of the spear. | ||
| Tip of the spear 20 years ago. | ||
| I want to just say, Sam said something a little earlier. | ||
| What Sam was saying about gutless is the, is the United States government led or the United States regime led by Joe Biden. | ||
| Their decisions have been gutless from the beginning. | ||
| The bravery of our soldiers, the bravery, obviously those Marines, the bravery of the pilots, the bravery, and this is once again, I want to bifurcate. | ||
| You've got the globalists and then you've got the sons and daughters of the deplorables, you know, It's all on your shoulders, whether it's the full faith and credit of the United States or the defense of the Republic and her allies. | ||
| It always comes down to the same people. | ||
| It's always the same people. | ||
| Always. | ||
| Always and everywhere. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And this is, once again, the bravery and courage of the American soldier, the American airman, the American Marine, the American sailor. | ||
| The paramilitary, the CIA operatives, the contractors, people who are former military who are contractors, that bravery. | ||
| And that is why when push comes to shove, the people in Afghanistan who have a choice between the medieval theocracy of the Taliban or ISIS or al-Qaeda or the Khani network are trying to flood the zone. | ||
| To get out. | ||
| And if they can't get out and they're caught, they're tossing their kids over razor barbed wire to an American soldier to make sure the American soldier, essentially they're saying, hey, we want the deplorables are the people we trust, right? | ||
| The working class people in the United States. | ||
| We know their decency. | ||
| We know they're hardworking. | ||
| We know that they're a safe haven. | ||
| They're a safe haven in a world that is That is a dangerous, anarchy, chaotic place, right? | ||
| Red of tooth and claw. | ||
| We understand that this, this haven of, uh, of safety, right? | ||
| Haven of safety is these troops, by the way, the same people that they're going through critical race theory that are, uh, racist and misogynist and nativist and xenophobes that are being, you know, harassed daily with the critical race theory, all that. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| And by the way, the soldiers there are of every ethnicity and race and religion. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| We've got breaking news here. | ||
| U.S. | ||
| officials report multiple U.S. | ||
| civilian casualties right now. | ||
| We're hearing that. | ||
| We've got Joe Kent's going to join us in a second. | ||
| We've got a lot going on. | ||
| Sam, I want to go back to the report because, boy, this one's explosive. | ||
| I know you're trying to check it out. | ||
| Give me what you're hearing again about the Christian preachers and the Christian children. | ||
| I take it you've tried to reconfirm that, of this story, and you're hearing it from a very, as you tell me, old hand, reliable source? | ||
| I'm hearing it directly from a former colleague who is in touch with a whole raft of Individuals with established records for reliability on the ground. | ||
| So this is not coming strictly out of some room or mill. | ||
| What we're hearing is that a, an 82nd two-star general on the ground in at Kabul airport last night, ordered a group of Christian missionaries. | ||
| We're being told 100 with a group of 300 children. | ||
| Don't have any more details on ages. | ||
| To leave the airport, that they needed to wait outside the gate, outside the secure perimeter, until their charter flight, which was supposed to leave, I gather, today, and that they were all crowded in the immediate vicinity of one of the devices that went off. | ||
| By the way, given the power of the impact, we're hearing it's not a car bomb, you're hearing it's a suicide vest. | ||
| Can suicide vests, to your knowledge, pack that type of explosives that you can take out? | ||
| We're hearing, what, 50 minimum of one blast, 50 Afghani civilians? | ||
| Yeah, without question. | ||
| I remember seeing one suicide vest that essentially consisted of a vest you wore under a jacket, and it was about Eight mortar shells all wired together. | ||
| So you're talking that level of blast at one location. | ||
| Of course you pack into it ball bearings, shrapnel, scrap metal, every other horrible thing you can think of to shred people. | ||
| So yeah, it could. | ||
| And also when you've seen the pictures you see of this, the conditions here, we are talking people jammed together outside the gates. | ||
| So close that you can't move, you can barely breathe, you're in physical contact with people on all sides of you. | ||
| So it is a just a packed sea of humanity and you're talking about a device going off in the center of that could easily kill 50 people. | ||
| Okay, short commercial break. | ||
| We're going to be back with the entire team. | ||
| Brian Kennedy, Colonel Mills, Sam Faddis. | ||
| We're going to ask to be joined by Joe Kent as we continue our coverage live of the event, the terrorist attack at Kabul Airport. | ||
| We'll be back in the war room in a moment. | ||
| By the way, I want to tell everybody in the live chat, and this is one of the reasons that even if you're watching at home, you also want to be in one of the chat rooms, whether it's RealAmerica's Voice or WarRoom.org or the Telegram, everything, because there's things there we can put up quicker, because Real America's Voice has done such a great job that we're on the dish and cable, that there are obviously certain things that we have to vet and have to show, particularly some of the violence. | ||
| Afghan TV has given a live feed that we're going to put up in the chat rooms. | ||
| It is absolutely horrific what happened in these gates. | ||
| The footage is just incredible. | ||
| And I've got a report from people in the United Kingdom, very tied to the intelligence community, that, quote, things are getting medieval in Kabul, even as we speak. | ||
| And so I want to turn to Joe Kent. | ||
| Joe is a former Army Special Forces, I think, 11 combat tours, I think it was, Joe, in the region. | ||
| Joe, tell us what you're hearing, sir. | ||
|
unidentified
|
So right now, because it's an ongoing developing situation, I've just heard, I think, the same reports we've heard. | |
| Multiple U.S. | ||
| wounded in action, potentially some killed in action. | ||
| There was two different suicide vests. | ||
| One that hit the initial group of folks there at the gate, and then the other one that seems to have come in. | ||
| And hit the first responders again. | ||
| This is all fragmented reporting, but I think this is just an example of what happens when we leave our troops at the mercy of a terrorist organization like the Taliban. | ||
| We're relying on the Taliban to provide our outer cordon, our outer security. | ||
| I think it's clear that we have to go on the offensive right now to get all of our people out. | ||
| We cannot rely on the Taliban to secure our people, to get our people out of that country. | ||
| By the way, the meeting with the Israeli Prime Minister and the President has been postponed. | ||
| Joe Biden and the rest of his regime are down in the Situation Room right now. | ||
| We're here monitoring developments. | ||
| I want to talk about that, Joe. | ||
| You've been a pretty big critic of the whole project. | ||
| Since you've done, what, 11, I think 10 or 11, 12 tours over there. | ||
| Your wife lost her life in the line of duty fighting ISIS up in Syria. | ||
| Put in perspective, particularly for the American fighting man and woman who have sacrificed so much in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in these endless wars. | ||
| Put in perspective today, particularly the fact that, you know, we know that American troops have been at least wounded Right? | ||
| And now they're welding the gates shut and it looks like they're not going to make any more forays into town to save American citizens, at least that's currently what we're hearing. | ||
| Put in perspective the thoughts and feelings of what you feel as an American fighting man. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Seeing the lies of 20 years all come unraveled right now. | |
| The military lied. | ||
| They told president after president that the Afghan military was something that we were going to be able to build, that this government, we are going to be able to hammer together out of a conglomeration of warring tribes, and that this was actually a mission that we could accomplish. | ||
| We knew that they were lying about that. | ||
| They lied about it in Afghanistan. | ||
| They lied about it in Iraq. | ||
| We saw it all come unraveled in Iraq in 2014 when ISIS crossed the berm and the Iraqi military surrendered to them, essentially, and ran. | ||
| And now we're seeing the exact same thing play out again. | ||
| This was preventable. | ||
| President Trump attempted to get us out of Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria for his entire administration, but he was thwarted every step of the way by the military-industrial complex and by the media. | ||
| What I think we're seeing right now is we are seeing our permanent ruling class have a little bit of friction and clash. | ||
| The military thought they could stay in Afghanistan indefinitely. | ||
| When Biden came in and said he didn't want to follow President Trump's plan to have us out by May, He asked them, hey, will the Afghan military hold? | ||
| Will this last till September so that Joe Biden could have this great political victory by ending an endless war and have a great speech on September 11th and score a bunch of political points that he desperately needs because he's bleeding out credibility as we speak? | ||
| And the military turned and lied to him thinking that, yeah, they'll get another extension. | ||
| They can kick this thing down the road for another 18 months like they've done for the past two plus decades. | ||
| When Biden actually said, no, I want to get these folks out, there was no plan. | ||
| There was no prioritization whatsoever because his national security establishment simply believes that America is a declining power. | ||
| And they don't view anything exceptional about American people. | ||
| So that culture really trumps any kind of strategy. | ||
| This culture that Americans don't matter, that's what's playing out here in real time. | ||
| The military only cared about staying and protecting their lives the last 20 plus years. | ||
| I see a direct parallel right now to when my wife was killed. | ||
| My wife was killed a month after Trump attempted to get our troops out of Syria the first time, and the military industrial complex, the permanent administrative state, turned against Trump and resulted in our Americans staying in harm's way for an additional month. | ||
|
unidentified
|
My wife and three other great Americans were killed. | |
| That's what we're seeing right now. | ||
| We should have been out in May. | ||
| Had we followed Trump's plan and been out in May and not given the Taliban three months of fighting season to plan this offensive, the Americans that were wounded today and potentially some even killed would be alive. | ||
| We need to do everything we can right now to get our troops out. | ||
| That includes going on the offensive, unfortunately. | ||
| This is something I want to reiterate. | ||
| You know, Joe Kent is one of the leaders of the America First movement, given that he's given so much of his own personal life towards this effort, and also his wife gave her life in the line of duty, right? | ||
| And Joe's with the two young boys that don't have a mother because of this. | ||
| It's not about the bravery of the American serviceman. | ||
| It's also not about the commitment of the American serviceman and the people of the United States to the security of the United States and our allies. | ||
| It's about this globalist project. | ||
| What people, and particularly Republicans, are lighting up Mike Pompeo. | ||
| And by doing that, lighting up Donald Trump. | ||
| And because Politico today had this article about it. | ||
| You know, Trump is a master negotiator. | ||
| And Pompeo is a pretty tough hombre too. | ||
| You know, I think number one is class at West Point. | ||
| The there was a policy of carrots and sticks, and there weren't a lot of care. | ||
| There were some carrots, but there were big sticks. | ||
| OK, and the Taliban, it was conditions based. | ||
| When Biden came in, all conditions are off. | ||
| They were just essentially cut and run and let the devil catch the high most. | ||
| Well, I've been using that phrase the last couple of days. | ||
| This is that footage you're going to see and that footage will be cleaned up. | ||
| You'll be seeing it. | ||
| And if you're in the chat room, see it right now. | ||
| When I say cut and run the devil, catch the high most, that's it right there. | ||
| That's Satan on the move. | ||
| Right. | ||
| When they're coming in indiscriminate murder of women and children. | ||
| OK, because that's how they roll to terrorize you, to shock you. | ||
| That's given the American imperial, the American globalist a little love tap on the way out the door. | ||
| Right? | ||
| And you hear this nonsense overnight. | ||
| In fact, our cold open this morning was going to be, I think, somebody on the Stephanie Rule Show talking this mindless chatter. | ||
| Oh, you know, we're working with the Taliban. | ||
| They're trying to really impress people. | ||
| They're trying to show that they can be a real government. | ||
| You know, they got the New York Times article. | ||
| They're just sitting there. | ||
| You know, they're just sitting there taking it as the Taliban loads lie after lie after lie. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| And they gave you a little love tap. | ||
| That's what they show you. | ||
| That's that's that's that's their idea of a new world order. | ||
| Want to see a new world order? | ||
| I want to compare and contrast two things that happened at the gate this weekend, this week. | ||
| What you see today, which is carnage, indiscriminate carnage of women and children, civilians, also military, but particularly women and children, as Sam Faddis said, packed with ball bearings and shrapnel just to do as much damage as possible. | ||
| There's much carnage. | ||
| And I want you to think about that, I want you to embrace that, of what it's like At point-blank range or somebody lets off one of these suicide vests and the blast goes everywhere indiscriminately. | ||
| Compare that to the photos of the Joe Kents and his wife on the top of that the top of that wall and back of the razor wire with throwing the kids over throwing the babies over and please save my children. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| That's the compare and contrast. | ||
| That's the compare and contrast. | ||
| And remember, The American citizens, this is what the globalists think of you. | ||
| This is what they think of the troops. | ||
| This is what they think of the American citizens out there. | ||
| You're trash. | ||
| They can talk all the same. | ||
| Thank you for your service. | ||
| No. | ||
| They get careless. | ||
| And here's one of the reasons. | ||
| It's incompetence. | ||
| And Brian Kennedy says it's malfeasance. | ||
| And Colonel Mills told us the danger to the pilots and the crews and the servicemen that got to get out there taking those slow-moving cargo planes out of that runway. | ||
| When we know we're surrounded, right? | ||
| Because you gave up the weapons. | ||
| They got the howitzers, they got the mortars, they got the man pads, they got it all. | ||
| You're surrounded. | ||
| You're at Fort Apache, okay? | ||
| You're at Fort Apache. | ||
| You're surrounded. | ||
| You're totally and completely surrounded. | ||
| You're powerless. | ||
| The greatest military power on the face of the earth, with all the nuclear weapons, all the aircraft carriers, all the carrier battle groups, all the The boomer submarines, right? | ||
| The greatest, you know, NSA, the guys over at Fort Meade. | ||
| All of it. | ||
| Roll it all up. | ||
| Because you don't have the political will to make the right decisions. | ||
| You don't have the political will. | ||
| You don't have the guts. | ||
| That's what Sam Fatto's talking about. | ||
| Not the guts of those men and women on the wall. | ||
| Not the guts of Joe Kent and his beloved deceased wife. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Can't question their courage. | ||
| Can't question their valor. | ||
| I've been approached by so many former servicemen that want to get on the plane and go back in there this week. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Get folks out. | ||
| That's what Eric Prince is doing. | ||
| He's a former Navy SEAL. | ||
| That's what he's doing. | ||
| Jason Jones, Infantry. | ||
| All these guys want to go back in. | ||
| Faddis knows dozens of them, not hundreds of them. | ||
| Mills knows them. | ||
| Kent knows them. | ||
| People would go back in and answer the call again to get out American citizens and allies. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Right? | |
| We're not talking about allies that gotta come here and go to Fort Hood, stay in the region as Beecher Van Storch, an alternative for Deutschland. | ||
| So this is the situation I want every- in living color, right? | ||
| In living color. | ||
| What does Bill Parcell say? | ||
| You are what your record says you are. | ||
| So you can see Jen Psaki up there trashing Eric Prince, right? | ||
| You can see Tony Blinken up there spinning Andrea Mitchell, she's got the big sad face and the sad eyes as her globalist project burns to the ground in a heap of ashes. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| You see it. | ||
| You see it. | ||
| Right there in living color. | ||
| Just watch it. | ||
| And with these videos, that's why I want everybody to go online now. | ||
| Watch the raw video. | ||
| Embrace the raw video. | ||
| Don't look away. | ||
| And to make the progressives. | ||
| You know what? | ||
| Now you know why Rachel Maddow's gonna spend more time with her family? | ||
| You know why she's gonna do a weekly show and she wants to do some entertainment stuff? | ||
| Hey, she understands she can't defend this. | ||
| She doesn't want to defend it. | ||
| She wants to run away. | ||
| We're not gonna let you run away. | ||
| We're not gonna let the tech oligarchs run away. | ||
| This elections have consequences and stolen elections have catastrophic consequences. | ||
| And you're seeing this hapless, feckless old man. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Now in the Situation Room. | ||
| And this is what they spun us for the last couple of days. | ||
| Oh, we're working with the Taliban, we've got side deals, we've got the CIA director. | ||
| Burns, how did that meeting go? | ||
| I want to know from Burns. | ||
| And by the way, you're doing all this stuff on January 6th. | ||
| Here's my recommendation to Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats. | ||
| He said it's a big thing, you're going to get everybody up there and talk about everything and do everything. | ||
| Here's one I think the American people might want to see before him. | ||
| I'm just putting this idea out there. | ||
| Why don't we get everybody that's responsible for this in the chain of command? | ||
| And let's get all the emails, let's get all the text messages, let's get all the calls, all the meetings, let's get all the documents, all the presentations. | ||
| All of it. | ||
| And why don't we have that first? | ||
| By the way, we still get to January 6th, because we've got an argument to make about January 6th, and we're prepared to make it. | ||
| Okay? | ||
| Benny Thompson. | ||
| Right? | ||
| Benny Thompson. | ||
| You want that argument made? | ||
| We'll make that argument. | ||
| But here's what I think the American people might want. | ||
| With the blood on the streets at the Abbey Gate and the Barron Gate, right there. | ||
| When you're dealing with them and you're working with them, what did Burns know? | ||
| What did your meeting with the Taliban say? | ||
| How did that go? | ||
| Right? | ||
| They tell you they're going to hit you? | ||
| Give you a love tap? | ||
| A couple days beforehand? | ||
| Is that what you heard? | ||
| Is that what you knew? | ||
| What did they tell Biden? | ||
| What did they tell this hapless, feckless old man before he went to bed last night? | ||
| Before they put him to bed at what, 4 o'clock in the afternoon? | ||
| We don't know because you never see him after 5 o'clock. | ||
| Right? | ||
| What did he know? | ||
| Hey, Benny, I got an idea. | ||
| Let's have the big investigation. | ||
| You got memos all over the place. | ||
| You're going to do this. | ||
| You're going to go to the National Archives. | ||
| Let's go to the National Archives and pull up all the records and all the lies and misrepresentations of the military and the intelligence apparatus. | ||
|
unidentified
|
All of it. | |
| Let's go to the National Archives and get that. | ||
| And let's have that, I mean, let's have that. | ||
| What is it, September 9th? | ||
| It's still in fresh memory. | ||
| Why don't we do it on the morning of September 11th, when they're in Kabul with a terrorist super state, mocking and ridiculing. | ||
| You know what they could do? | ||
| They'll do another Mount Suribachi with us, right? | ||
| They'll put the Taliban flag up with our uniforms on Mount Suribachi, right there. | ||
| Benny, let's do that. | ||
| Let's delay yours, and let's on September, the morning of September 11th, in commemoration of the honored dead, From 20 years ago, let's do that. | ||
| How about that? | ||
| You want to do that? | ||
| No, you do not want to do that. | ||
| You're gutless. | ||
| You're feckless. | ||
| You're hapless. | ||
| You're a disgrace. | ||
| You're a disgrace to this country. | ||
| You're a disgrace to every serviceman that's given their life, man and woman that's given their life in the history of this republic. | ||
| You have made a mockery of everything. | ||
| We'll take a short commercial break. | ||
| We'll be back in the War Room in a moment. | ||
| You're in the War Room. | ||
| We're going to wrap up our coverage here. | ||
| I want to go around the horn. | ||
| By the way, I want to thank everybody. | ||
| We had a whole show planned today. | ||
| Mo Brooks, Dr. Wolfe, everybody had to cancel that. | ||
| We're going to reschedule all of that. | ||
| I want to go down to Colonel John Mills, who was on the Joint Command Staff. | ||
| Colonel Mills, anything you're hearing, particularly about potential airlifts out and the danger of that, sir? | ||
|
unidentified
|
Well, it looks like the airlift has essentially stopped. | |
| It looks like we have told all Americans to not approach. | ||
| I've been studying the airport. | ||
| It looks like we have the two-star from the 82nd. | ||
| I don't want to name that name until we totally confirm that he's the senior on the ground. | ||
| I'm looking at the perimeter. | ||
| You've got to establish a perimeter, but then you have to push out and establish a security zone. | ||
| Sounds like we're surrendering even a security zone. | ||
| around Hamid Karzai Airport. | ||
| This is extremely important. | ||
| It makes it very vulnerable. | ||
| We have just chosen to put ourselves in the absolute most tactically disadvantaged position possible. | ||
| This is just insanity. | ||
| And essentially, the State Department, there is a form. | ||
| I don't want to give it out. | ||
| There's a form on the website that tells Americans to fill out the form and then wait for a call. | ||
| By the way, Colonel Mills, I'm hearing that both the Germans and the Brits have now officially kind of pulled out. | ||
| The Germans took their last airlift out with a couple planes this morning, and the British are doing the same thing. | ||
|
unidentified
|
Have you heard anything according to that? | |
| Yeah, it sounds like things are essentially winding down. | ||
| There's just a single runway. | ||
| There's not a whole lot of ramp space. | ||
| This is not a massive multi-runway facility. | ||
| And it's all about ramp space when you're doing operations like this. | ||
| You're doing it under combat conditions, you throw a lot of things to the wind, you wing it, but it's still about ramp space and it gets really messy. | ||
| You're doing combat departures, combat approaches. | ||
| Same British C-130 that flew me into Baghdad, the wings snapped off not too long later and everybody was killed. | ||
| That could have been me on that aircraft. | ||
| So, this is high risk. | ||
| We've essentially closed ourselves off in the most tactically disadvantaged situation possible. | ||
| It doesn't look like we're establishing a security zone. | ||
| That's basics. | ||
| It's establishing a security zone. | ||
| Thank you very much. | ||
| Brian Kennedy, any closing thoughts as we wrap up our morning coverage? | ||
| Well, this has been a great show, Steve. | ||
| The question to ask is, why did we put ourselves in harm's way the way Colonel Mills just said, why did we do that? | ||
| Who is responsible? | ||
| I'm making the argument, this is not incompetence. | ||
| The Biden administration is nothing if not the management of the narrative. | ||
| They're trying to establish a narrative, and that is the American military, the American intelligence community, the Biden administration knows what they're doing. | ||
| This is the right way of doing things. | ||
| Now, if that's true, What is the purpose? | ||
| I'm arguing it's to demoralize the American people and the American military. | ||
| And that, it seems to me, is shameful. | ||
| Brian, give us your social media quickly so people will follow you. | ||
| The article on the American mind we're putting up in the live chat, but give us your handles. | ||
| Brian T. Kennedy on Getter. | ||
| Joe Kent, any closing thoughts? | ||
| We're going to have you guys back on tonight, tomorrow. | ||
| We'll pack this coverage. | ||
| Any closing thoughts, Joe? | ||
|
unidentified
|
We have to go on the offensive to get all of our people out. | |
| The longer we remain static, at the mercy of the Taliban, the more incidents like this will happen. | ||
| The longer you stay static, the more suicide bombers, the more mortar attacks will come. | ||
| We have given the enemy every single bit of the initiative. | ||
| That is the fault of the Biden administration. | ||
| We have to move heaven and earth, kill whoever we have to kill. | ||
| To get our people out. | ||
| I think Congress must demand accountability. | ||
| We need to know exactly what the military knew, what the intelligence community knew, and what the Biden administration knew, and when they knew it, and why we handed the initiative to the Taliban. | ||
| Call for the resignations of the Secretary of Defense, Commander of Joint Chiefs of Staff, the CENTCOM commander at minimum. | ||
| Sam Faddis, should we include Alexander Burns? | ||
| A CIA flew over, took a red eye over him, met with the Taliban, supposedly had a deal. | ||
| And here you get a love tap on the way out, killing women indiscriminately, massive suicide bombs, looks like small arms fire, coordinated attacks. | ||
| Sam Faddis. | ||
| Yeah, we could definitely add Burns to that list. | ||
| We could probably add pretty much the entire cabinet to that list. | ||
| Look, here's what I would say. | ||
| I said earlier, we're all having a hard time still calibrating because the scope of the debacle And the level of incompetence and malfeasance is so staggering that it's hard to just to comprehend that this is happening. | ||
| We just had, it appears, four Marines killed, 50 plus Afghans killed. | ||
| There is zero reason to believe that this is as bad as it gets. | ||
| We are now attempting to withdraw from a militarily indefensible position. | ||
| We are praying, basically, we get out alive. | ||
| You may yet see, God forbid, C-17s burning and American soldiers trapped on the other side of the globe because we're not doing any of the things Joe Ken, Colonel Mills, the guys who know very well how to do this, not doing any of the stuff they're recommending. | ||
| We're trusting in the Taliban to get our people out. | ||
| They spun it the last couple of days. | ||
| This is an American Dunkirk, right? | ||
| That's what they're saying. | ||
| That's, you know, they got an air bridge. | ||
| They're doing this great stuff. | ||
| And by the way, the valor of these pilots, the valor of the military is unquestioned, but this is what it is because Biden's regime and these incompetence, you know, uh, Brian Kinney says it's malfeasance. | ||
| Let's say best case, it's a gross recklessness and incompetence. | ||
| This is an American din bin food. | ||
| Okay. | ||
| These American troops have been left there to die. | ||
| The American citizens in there have been left Best case tossages. | ||
| Best case at the tender mercies of this medieval theocracy. | ||
| And you can go online and see how they've comported themselves over the last decades. | ||
| The Haqqani Network, ISIS, Al Qaeda, right? | ||
| And the Taliban. | ||
| That's where we've left American citizens. | ||
| So I want you to embrace that at home. | ||
| We're going to take a break for a couple hours. | ||
| We'll be back at five o'clock. | ||
| We're going to have Steve Cortez with us. | ||
| We'll have more coverage Non-stop coverage when we were joining you at 5 o'clock. | ||
| I want to thank everybody today. | ||
| Real America's Voice, John Fredericks Radio Network, and of course, people that have been joining us, and particularly Sam Faddis, who took a couple hours of his busy day to co-host today. | ||
| I really want to thank Sam, Brian Kennedy, Joe Kent, Beatrice Van Stortz, and the team that hooked us up from Turkey. | ||
| Remember, This is going to resonate. | ||
| What's happening here, there's decades in which nothing happens, and there are weeks in which decades happen. | ||
| We told you at the beginning of coverage this week on Monday, in fact, when we started, that we had that special Real America's Voice Sunday night a week, two weeks ago, right? | ||
| That strap-in, because history is going to be made over the next days and weeks ahead. | ||
| History that's going to resonate for years and years and decades to come, okay? | ||
| We're going to wrap up our coverage now. | ||
| I want to thank everybody, particularly Real America's Voice, John Frederick's Radio Network, our partners at GTV and G News, I put this in Mandarin and Japanese, our audience all throughout the world. | ||
| We'll be back at 5 o'clock with more continuing live coverage of the events in Kabul, in the War Room. |
