Taliban enter Kabul and demand SURRENDER.
As the Taliban advance accelerates, the US is scrambling to evacuate more than 10,000 American citizens from the capital, with officials said to be trying to strike a deal for Taliban fighters not to descend on Kabul until the US can pull everyone out.
However, a senior US official told the New York Times the Taliban have warned the US it must cease airstrikes or else its extremist fighters will move in.
The Decline And Fall Of The American Empire
The latest: 52 bombers head to Afghanistan.. to bomb their own planes.
Bumped for update: US Embassy will be completely evacuated within 72 hours and staff are already being rushed to Kabul airport as Taliban warlords close in: First of 3,000 Marines arrive and refugee crisis begins.
Bad news for a Biden White House making plans to pull their staff from the roof of the American Embassy — the Taliban are in the air.

It was always impossible to destroy the Taliban, or so we shall be told by all the sombre grey generals of CNN. Just as it was impossible to destroy ISIS.

Pope Francis concluded the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy by inviting thousands of homeless from across Europe to Rome. Many of those homeless were foreign migrants. Among them was Emmanuel Abayisenga, a Rwandan migrant, the son of a man tried for genocide, who had been in France since 2012, and finally got his chance to briefly meet with the Pope.
While reporters brandished telephoto lenses and stood on chairs to capture the moment, Pope Francis clasped Abayisenga’s arms. The Rwandan, toting a Nike backpack and headphones, appears, as local French clergy would later insist, to be, “fully integrated” into Europe.
He was also the model of the “socially deprived” people whom Pope Francis was looking for.

Its a good thing two muslim terrorists on Turtle Island have been given peace bonds. That will protect us. Now security agencies can concentrate on their diversity quotas and gender equity issues.
Not Just Any Church
Alberta’s Premier Jason Kenney, said on Thursday one of the vandalised locations was an African Evangelical Church in the city of Calgary.
He said its congregation was made up entirely of former refugees who fled countries where churches are often vandalised and burned down.
“These folks came to Canada with the hope that they could practise their faith peacefully,” tweeted Mr Kenney, a Conservative. “Some of them are traumatised by such attacks.
Ladies and gentlemen your Canadian social justice warriors at their finest.
Allahu Akbar!
It’s the new cry for help.
The 24-year-old suspect, a Somali immigrant, grabbed a knife from the kitchen section of a department store, attacking several inside. He then lashed out at people outside.
Five women and a child were also injured in the attack.
Police say the suspect was possibly psychologically unstable and may have held extremist Islamist beliefs. […]
But a police spokesman said that, while the attacker had a criminal record, none of his previous offences were related to terrorism.
Well that’s a relief.

On the fifth anniversary of the PULSE nightclub massacre in Orlando, numerous senators, politicians and activist groups commemorated that tragic event by propagating an absolute falsehood: namely, that the shooter, Omar Mateen, was motivated by anti-LGBT animus. The evidence is definitive and conclusive that this is false — Mateen, like so many others who committed similar acts of violence, was motivated by rage over President Obama’s bombing campaigns in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, and chose PULSE at random without even knowing it was a gay club — yet this media-consecrated lie continues to fester.

Israel shared intelligence with the US showing how Hamas operated inside the same building with the Associated Press and Al-Jazeera in Gaza, officials in Jerusalem said on Sunday.
Officials in more than one government office confirmed that US President Joe Biden’s phone call to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday was, in part, about the bombing of the building, and that Israel showed Biden and American officials the intelligence behind the action.
“We showed them the smoking gun proving Hamas worked out of that building,” a source close to Foreign Minister Gabi Ashkenazi said. “I understand they found the explanation satisfactory.”.
They’re shocked! Shocked, I tell you! What if I told you that a former @AP journalist (@MattiFriedman) had written IN 2014 that Hamas regularly operated in and around the AP office in Gaza?

Unfit To Serve
Former secretary of state Mike Pompeo and Republican foreign policy leaders in Congress are demanding a formal investigation into John Kerry following revelations he informed Iranian leaders about covert Israeli military operations.
A leaked audio recording of Iranian foreign minister Javad Zarif, who worked closely with Kerry when the 2015 nuclear accord was negotiated, catches the Iranian official claiming the former Obama administration secretary of state informed him about at least 200 Israeli strikes on Iranian military positions in Syria. That Kerry shared these intimate details “to his astonishment,” according to the New York Times, suggests Kerry may have been disclosing classified information. It would also represent a stunning betrayal of America’s closest Middle East ally. Israel relies on the United States to protect shared intelligence from its top regional enemy.
The revelation is already generating calls for Kerry, the special presidential envoy for climate, to resign from the Biden administration and face a congressional investigation for possibly spilling highly classified secrets to one of America’s leading enemies.
Former Trump administration secretary of state Mike Pompeo said the audio tape proves “what I’ve said for years: That [Zarif] continued to engage with former secretary of state Kerry on policy matters after Kerry’s public service and, according to Zarif, Kerry informed the Iranians of Israeli operations.”
“Before we cut a deal with Iran that reduces Americans’ security,” Pompeo said, “it would be good to know what the arrangement, if any, may have been between these two leaders.”
Kerry denies. He denies a lot of stuff. The Swift Boaters saved America — for a time.

Ayaan Hirsi Ali on Rogan
The woke mob has tried to cancel this lady for daring to agree with J.K. Rowling about gender. The interview starts a little slow as she’s a bit nervous and her English isn’t always the best but quickly becomes gripping as she gets into her life’s story.
From her escaping an arranged Marriage, transitioning into Western Culture, to Islam, to Covid, to what’s going on in France and all over Europe now. It’s a good listen. 👍
