Wow. That guy had the worst timing to visit. Also appears he was very ignorant of the situation. Good luck to him.

1808 Kabul Time

Per BBC: Taliban have entered the outskirts of Kabul.

"Afghan government authorities" are discussing a "peaceful transfer of power" to the Taliban.

Taliban spokesmen in Doha have said they we will not interfere with operations at the Kabul airport (Reuters).

Could be security contractors for various diplomatic missions, or it could be Afghan expats trying to make a quick in and out to grab family members in need of assistance.

Another surreal headline , particularly for those who may have served there:

BBC (45 minutes ago)
Bagram airfield and prison, about 40km (25 miles) north of the city centre, are in Taliban hands, the militants say.

Now someone says that? Now? They didn't see this coming? It was over when the army turned over entire divisions.
