Afghan Escape Descends Into Chaos Amid ISIS Threats, Taliban Death Squads and Biden’s False Promises; US Embassy Tells Citizens to Stay Away From Kabul Airport; Taliban Death Squads Ramping Up Hunt for Afghan Collaborators, and related stories

Afghan escape descends into chaos amid ISIS threats, Taliban death squads and Biden’s false promises:

The escape from Afghanistan continued to descend into a humiliating debacle for the US on Saturday, as threats of ISIS attacks and Taliban death squads — and contradictory guidance from the White House — added to the perilous chaos faced by thousands of Americans and allies trying to flee the country.

The US Embassy said on Saturday that American citizens in Afghanistan should stay away from Kabul’s airport, the only way out.

The advisory directly contradicted President Biden’s insistence on Friday that Americans could proceed to Hamid Karzai International Airport freely from the Afghan capital and that an “agreement” with the Taliban had been reached over the issue.

“Because of potential security threats outside the gates at the Kabul airport, we are advising US citizens to avoid traveling to the airport and to avoid airport gates at this time,” the embassy said in a security alert on Saturday.

US Embassy in Afghanistan tells citizens to stay away from Kabul airport:

American citizens in Afghanistan should stay away from the international airport in Kabul, the U.S. Embassy now says.

The development directly contradicts President Biden’s insistence Friday that Americans could proceed to the airport freely from the Afghan capital and that an “agreement” with the Taliban had been reached over the issue.

“Because of potential security threats outside the gates at the Kabul airport, we are advising U.S. citizens to avoid traveling to the airport and to avoid airport gates at this time,” according to a Saturday security alert from the embassy.

The new guidance underscores the growing debacle, as contradictory White House statements confuse the crisis on the ground, with the U.S. scrambling to evacuate its citizens and Afghan allies from the clutches of the Taliban. —>READ MORE HERE
