Its been a hard week, a sobering realization our freedoms that we take for granted come at a great cost.
11 Marines, 1 Sailor, 1 Soldier, 13 men and women who were fully committed to the mission.
A week ago I posted the first picture within hours the next one was sent to cedarposts@gmail.com and then photos just kept coming.
Rest easy my brothers and sisters we have the watch.

That is unverified gossip b.s. by a guy who was Bush's Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense in 2001-2006 aired on a foreign news program. No names. No sources. No credibility. "ROGER PARDO-MAURER: What is being said by people who were involved is that the Department of Defense already knew who the bomber was, and when (the Kabul attack would happen), and that a Predator drone had a lock on him, OK, and that they refused to grant permission to fire upon that bomber. (Permission) was requested, and was denied. 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."
What is being said by people who were involved ... and that they refused... Wow. Damning evidence.
I am no fan of this government or any government official. I think almost to the last one, they are liars, crooks, corrupt, failures. But don't go dropping conspiracies about murdering our service personnel or anyone else when they are clearly being put out for someone's personal fame hog nature and nothing more. Just like that scum bag who posted a video claiming a service member was being hung from our helicopter when it was obviously a taliban guy with a flag but was cut off and sent out as propaganda and re-tweeted millions of times by dummies. Stop.
I don't know about drones, but this Politico article makes clear they had detailed notes from classified calls that state they knew about the attack many hours earlier and did nothing.
"Pentagon at 8 a.m. Wednesday — or 4:30 p.m. in Kabul — Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin instructed more than a dozen of the department’s top leaders around the world to make preparations for an imminent “mass casualty event,” according to classified detailed notes of the gathering shared with POLITICO."
And this later in the article.
"A senior military intelligence official not identified by name in the call notes reiterated that they were continuing to see indications of ISIS-K planning a major attack, and noted his team was in the midst of “developing targets,” he said, referring to ISIS-K. It would be “helpful” to close Abbey Gate, he said."
We did not close the gate with several hours to do it. So Based on that information, I wouldn't be quick to rule it out. Although it is sickening to think we would do that.
After the above information in the Politico article, there were some things they were told- unrelated to the intelligence calls- that were not true. But I'll leave it to you to determine what that was.
Yet white supremacy in the armed forces is the biggest threat to America. Lloyd Austin is a complete wether.
I posted the first link. I am sorry to those I offended. I'm just devastated by all of this, and afraid that this current regime have a bad agenda. They even left our dogs behind and I know they said they didn't but their collars were identified in video. They have instructed all agencies to wipe lists of equipment left behind, and said publicly the planes wouldn't fly. When we already know...
I have military family, and if I was one of the families that lost a loved one in this, I would want everyone to know everything and prevent it from happening again. I realize everyone may not feel the same. And to those who feel that way, I am sorry.
Prayers for peace and safety for all of the Goldstar families. prayers for everyone left behind in Afghanistan. Prayers for all of our US servicemembers. And prayers that our allies forgive us.
Politico article mentioned but left out of article above to verify source.

I'm terribly sorry for your loss and the unacceptable loss of and harm to all of our servicemen and women. It's horrific. We are safe at home because of them. This is not a game.
I'm disgusted by people capitalizing on deaths and sacrifice for their own political gain or personal fame or any other sick motive, lying about personal knowledge they clearly don't have--or in the case of the 'soldier being hanged from the helicopter' video where it was quite obviously a despicable, purposeful lie propaganda as is typical from the scum that posted it.
The politico article refers to general concern of threats at the airport escalating. That's not surprising. I think we've all been worried every minute of that happening. I breathe a sigh of relief at the end of every Fourth of July, New Year's Eve, September 11th, etc... even here at home. Definitely worry about our soldiers in Afghanistan and under these conditions. That's quite different than the guy from 15 years ago claiming we had a drone lock on shooting a bomber (wouldn't that have detonated anyway?) and refused to take him out for some political purpose. Isn't that ridiculous reasoning? Wouldn't any soldier have shot someone attacking on sight if able to do so? So what would be the political harm in using a drone instead? It makes no sense. The claim would only serve a different purpose.
If it turns out to be true, it will come to light with actual facts and evidence. But it makes no sense for anyone except the guy making it and a political purpose. That's my point. I'm sick of people adding agony and pain to real heartbreak and sacrifice just to serve their own stupid and pointless agendas. It's sickening.
Peace.
White Supremacy? You can have all black colleges and universities but think about what would happen if there was an all white college or university. Ain't gonna happen! Wokeness would cancel it out in a blink of an eye. As far as the deaths of the serviceman, it was an out right senseless tragedy but you need to remember that the left wing, woke, BLM, liberal idiots put Joe in office along with his token vice president!
After leaving the Taliban with all of the planes, vehicles, weapons and pallets of cash, why would anyone put anything past them. Now we will help build a wall at the Tajikistan/Afghan border while keeping ours open We are bringing in so many unvetted people through our borders (many Afghans will be resettled in Raleigh) but turning away Cubans. We also sealed the deal for the Russian pipeline, but blocked ours. You can't make this stuff up. How is any of this ok? Please name one thing this administration has done that is good for us.
Uncle Joe and his token VP gave guns to the Taliban yet they want to take ours away!
Token?...Pledge fund?
13 lives is tragic. Chicago will probably hit that by Sunday morning this long holiday weekend. Isn't it time we reflect on the lives of the POC who die ate the hands of racist LE and lax gun control laws that are allowed to assist in the erasure of the African race from America?
We will not lose any more servicemen and service women in Afghanistan, but we will continue to lose our lives to racist 'peace' officers. We will continue to have our neighborhoods flooded with handguns under the guise of an 18th century anachronism designed to be the equal of the National Guard. We will continue to have our people die unfairly to Covid due to the racist designs of an unfair medical system.
Where are our drinks at the bar?
2:47 Poor guy, move to Nigeria. You'll be treated there better. Semper Fi to my brothers and sisters who died with their boots on. To the "Doc", even though he is Navy he is still a Grunt to me. To that brave Soldier, rest in peace brother. In this Country doing the "right thing" isn't really doing the right thing anymore. No matter how you write it or think it these 13 will always be remembered. Not like the every day person who has done nothing in life except get killed on some street corner. So go by your own drink because no one cares.
Is Erlenbach’s face still on the side of the light rail after she got busted wrongfully reporting her name plate as stolen?
I wish I had a pussy, I could do whatever I wanted around here and not get fired!
9:41… you are a pussy
Pussy? Pledge fund?
I'm glad all those football fans had on masks, 6 foot distance, and we know they are all vaccinated. Oh, they were outside, no way airborne droplets were flying all over the place. "The Walking Dead" here we come.
