Widespread Reports Coming In That The Taliban Are Now Conducting 'House-to-House' Executions In Kabul

FOX News: Taliban commit 'house-to-house executions' in Kabul after US exit as chilling audio demonstrates Afghans' fear  

Afghan man who helped the US on the ground: 'I have no idea how to leave'. 

Horrifying audio of distant gunshots appears to confirm reports of "house-to-house executions" as the Taliban asserts control of Kabul and Afghanistan after the U.S. military's departure on Monday evening. 

An Afghan man who worked with Americans on the ground provided Fox News with the chilling audio featuring distant gunshots.

"I think there's a conflict between the Taliban, I have no idea where I'm located. 

From everywhere I hear the sounds of shooting, gunfire. I have no idea how to leave," the Afghan man said in the audio clip, recorded around the time the final U.S. plane left Kabul.

WNU Editor: Do not know if the above video is accurate. But the Taliban have made it very clear in the past few months that Afghans who worked for the government will be executed for treason. After seeing a video yesterday of a helicopter flying over Kandahar with someone hanging from it (video here) is enough to convince me that the Taliban will be keeping their word.

  1. It is a serious proposal that a person hears many time in the past 33 years. Trade (fill in the blank) from country (fill in the blank) for an America liberal.

    Retired General Hayden has heard the half serious joke,. He turned it around and inserted Trump supporters for liberals.

  2. To be clear, American efforts in Afghanistan can’t really be compared to the vast imperialist undertakings of the British and the Soviets; if anything, we weren’t imperialist enough. Taliban resistance collapsed almost immediately in 2001, but instead of following through with a massive infusion of troops and relief, the Bush administration moved on to a completely unnecessary war in Iraq. Afghanistan was initially allotted only about 10,000 American troops—one quarter the size of the New York City police force—and was all but abandoned by the State Department. Iraq was the place to be for ambitious young Americans in the Bush administration; Afghanistan was a backwater.

    Afghans looked on in amazement: You lost almost 3,000 civilians to al-Qaida, and this is all you got? For Afghans debating whether to collaborate with American forces, this was not looking like a good bet. “We know what happened to the Kurds after the first Gulf War,” one Afghan told a friend of mine. “President Bush abandoned them after the war, and they were massacred by Saddam Hussein.” Now another member of the Bush dynasty—George W.—was offering a similar deal. Incredibly, many Afghans accepted.

    1. "we weren't imperialist enough", what does this have to do with how the evacuation was handled?
