THE TALIBAN HAVE SEIZED U.S. MILITARY BIOMETRICS DEVICES
THE TALIBAN HAVE seized U.S. military biometrics devices that could aid in the identification of Afghans who assisted coalition forces, current and former military officials have told The Intercept.
The devices, known as HIIDE, for Handheld Interagency Identity Detection Equipment, were seized last week during the Taliban’s offensive, according to a Joint Special Operations Command official and three former U.S. military personnel, all of whom worried that sensitive data they contain could be used by the Taliban. HIIDE devices contain identifying biometric data such as iris scans and fingerprints, as well as biographical information, and are used to access large centralized databases. It’s unclear how much of the U.S. military’s biometric database on the Afghan population has been compromised.
While billed by the U.S. military as a means of tracking terrorists and other insurgents, biometric data on Afghans who assisted the U.S. was also widely collected and used in identification cards, sources said.
“We processed thousands of locals a day, had to ID, sweep for suicide vests, weapons, intel gathering, etc.” a U.S. military contractor explained. “[HIIDE] was used as a biometric ID tool to help ID locals working for the coalition.”
A spokesperson for the Defense Intelligence Agency referred questions to the Office of the Secretary of Defense, which did not respond to a request for comment.
An Army Special Operations veteran said it’s possible that the Taliban may need additional tools to process the HIIDE data but expressed concerns that Pakistan would assist with this. “The Taliban doesn’t have the gear to use the data but the ISI do,” the former Special Operations official said, referring to Pakistan’s spy agency, Inter-Services Intelligence. The ISI has been known to work closely with the Taliban.
The U.S. military has long used HIIDE devices in the global war on terror and used biometrics to help identify Osama bin Laden during the 2011 raid on his Pakistani hideout. According to investigative reporter Annie Jacobsen, the Pentagon had a goal to gather biometric data on 80 percent of the Afghan population to locate terrorists and criminals.
“I don’t think anyone ever thought about data privacy or what to do in the event the [HIIDE] system fell into the wrong hands,” said Welton Chang, chief technology officer for Human Rights First, himself a former Army intelligence officer. “Moving forward, the U.S. military and diplomatic apparatus should think carefully about whether to deploy these systems again in situations as tenuous as...

CIA bribed pro-American Afghan warlords with Viagra to rape boys
Ghazni, Afghanistan. Boys in the village, victims of CIA operations. |
The Taliban gained ground in Afghanistan by exposing male rape and pedophilia, rife among pro-American Afghans. "Honey traps" were set up by boys sent in by Taliban commanders to kill Afghan policemen.
AFP reported on how many crippling insider attacks on police in southern Afghanistan were mounted successfully by exploiting the pervasive practice of bacha bazi. These young spies infiltrated security forces linked to the US side and killed several high-ranking officials.
The rape of boys is prevalent across Afghanistan, especially in the province of Uruzgan, where “boys without beards” are objects of lust for powerful police commanders. In less than two years, at least six attacks were launched, killing hundreds of policemen, according to security and judicial officials in the province.
“The Taliban are sending boys — beautiful boys, handsome boys — to penetrate checkpoints and kill, drug and poison policemen,” confirmed Uruzgan’s police chief but he was soon removed “in a security reshuffle” for speaking the truth. “They have figured out the biggest weakness of police forces — bacha bazi,” he told AFP.
In 2019, a US-supported paedophile ring involved in the abuse of at least 546 boys from six schools was uncovered in Afghanistan’s Logar province. Those who had tried to speak out, were murdered according to the campaigners who first discovered videos of abuse posted to a Facebook page.
Tablet Mag has now reported on how these aging warlords maintained their taste for boys: “The reality is that America lost its war in Afghanistan more than a decade ago, roughly around the time when CIA officers began bribing aging warlords with Viagra. The Americans knew all about the young boys the tribal leaders kept in their camps; because the sex drug helped Afghan elders rape more boys more often, they were beholden to America’s clandestine service.”
The father of an American soldier killed in Afghanistan had described to the New York Times how his son could hear Afghan police officers sexually abusing boys they had brought to the base.
The Marine’s father, Gregory Buckley recounted the conversation with his son. His son told him: “At night we can hear them screaming, but we’re not allowed to do anything about it.” The son was shot to death at the base in 2012 after he was urged by his dad to tell his superiors. “My son said that his officers told him to look the other way because it’s their culture.”
Former Canadian soldier Tyrel Braaten said that during his tour of duty in Afghanistan in 2006, he also witnessed Afghan interpreters bringing young boys inside buildings at Forward Operating Base Wilson, a remote Canadian base outside Kandahar. The boys were then sodomized by the interpreters and Afghan soldiers, Braaten said. Other Canadian soldiers have also complained to chaplains and military medical personnel that officers told them...
France Deploys Special Forces To Rescue Citizens Stranded in Afghanistan
France is deploying special forces to rescue its citizens stranded in war-torn Afghanistan, according to the country's media.
French troops have evacuated nearly 400 people, including French civilians and Afghans who helped the country's military, from the capital city of Kabul, which the Taliban captured on Sunday. The French special forces have rescued civilians outside of Kabul's Hamid Karzai International Airport, which has been the site of the United States' chaotic evacuation efforts, according to Military Times.
British special forces have conducted similar operations in recent days to rescue British civilians stranded in the country.
France's evacuation efforts come as U.S. military leaders say they do not have the "capability" to rescue Americans stranded outside the airport.
"The forces that we have are focused on the security of the airfield. And you know how important that is, and you know what happens if we—if we lose the ability to provide that security," Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin told reporters Wednesday. "We don't have the capability to go out and collect up large numbers of people."
U.S. forces have struggled to evacuate Americans stuck in Kabul amid the United States' troop withdrawal from Afghanistan. There are thousands of U.S. citizens stranded in Kabul "with no ability to get to...
US Investigates Moderna Jab After Data Show 2.5x Higher Risk Of Heart Inflammation
The Internet's social-media censors have been extremely vigilant at suppressing every tidbit of COVID vaccine "misinformation" that comes their way. So, as readers might imagine, drawing attention to publicly released data about the rare (but sometimes deadly) side effects associated with both mRNA and adenovirus-vector jabs has been...a challenge.
But let's back up: over the past couple of months, health authorities in the US and Israel connected rare instances of myocarditis - that is, inflammation of the heart - to the mRNA jabs produced by Pfizer and Moderna. After a hurried secret meeting with its advisors in late June, the FDA reluctantly released a warning about a "likely association" between incidences of myocarditis and the new side effects.
And now, a new twist: On Thursday evening, the Washington Post published a report claiming that the Moderna coronavirus vaccine may be associated with a higher risk of myocarditis in younger adults than previously believed. The report relies on new data from a Canadian study that has yet to be released.
How much more dangerous is the Moderna jab than the Pfizer? Well, the preliminary data leaked to WaPo show the risk of myocarditis might be as much as 2.5x higher for the Moderna jab.
The news represents the latest bump in the road for Moderna's high-flying stock, as patients (especially younger men in their 20s and 30s deemed at highest risk to suffer the side effect) now have an incentive to prefer Pfizer's jab over Moderna's (if they still have any confidence in the mRNA jabs at all, that is).
WaPo's sources stressed that the new research hasn't yet been concluded, and that there's still plenty of work to be done before the FDA decides whether to attach another warning label to the Moderna jabs. The sources also claimed that the new data "are not slam bang".
The investigation, which involves the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is focusing on Canadian data that suggests the Moderna vaccine may carry a higher risk for young people than the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, especially for males below the age of 30 or so. The authorities also are scrutinizing data from the United States to try to determine whether there is evidence of an increased risk from Moderna in...
Antony Blinken Delusional About U.S. Withdrawal Insisting Taliban Takeover ‘Unlikely’ as Jihadis Declared Victory
U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken was consistently wrong about the outcome of the unconditional withdrawal of all foreign forces from Afghanistan, insisting that a Taliban takeover was “highly unlikely” Sunday, as the jihadis swept into Kabul after the collapse of the government.
Blinken was incorrect when he asserted that the unconditional U.S. withdrawal, a concession long sought by the Taliban, would not result in the fall of Afghanistan.
Secretary Blinken assured that the fall of Afghanistan after the departure of U.S.-led NATO troops was a far-fetched notion, even as the Taliban seized territory and U.S. intelligence warnings months before the withdrawal ultimately determined the rapid collapse of the Afghan government and military was probable.

Even the State Department’s own intelligence and research division described the failure of the Afghan forces to prevent the Taliban from conquering territory as a red flag, noting that the deteriorating security conditions could result in the collapse of the Kabul government, the New York Times learned from unnamed Biden administration officials.
Blinken defended Biden’s withdrawal plan to the bitter end. Contradicting his own department’s intelligence, Blinken provided an optimistic assessment even as the Taliban swept into Kabul on Sunday after the collapse of the Afghan government and declared victory.
“The likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning
everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely,” Blinken told CNN Sunday.

A day after the Taliban entered Kabul, Drew Holden, a freelance commentary writer, noted that Blinken has consistently been wrong about what the complete U.S. military withdrawal would mean for Afghanistan and the American embassy personnel.
Holden wrote on Twitter thread:
One of the most consistently wrong people is Antony Blinken, Biden’s Secretary of State.But perhaps Blinken’s worst prediction was from June where he said the US withdrawal wouldn’t lead to “some kind of immediate deterioration in the situation” that could happen “from a Friday to a Monday.”
He said of the withdrawal: “as the United States begins withdrawing our troops, we will use our civilian and economic assistance to advance a just and durable peace for Afghanistan.”
…
In April, while visiting Afghanistan, Blinken told Afghan President Ashraf [Ghani] – who has since fled the country – that Blinken was there to “demonstrate literally, by our presence, that we have an enduring and ongoing commitment to Afghanistan.”
…
I’m…not sure that one came to pass.
CNN noted that President Biden declared last month, “The likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely.”
Then the network asked Blinken, “how did President Biden get this so...
WTH? Canadian PM Spoke With HILLARY CLINTON About Afghanistan Because Biden And Harris Were AWOL
Good thing the call wasn't at 3:00 am. |
Biden IGNORED calls from allied world leaders
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau revealed earlier this week that after the Taliban took Kabul, he spoke not with Joe Biden or even Kamala Harris, but with Hillary Clinton instead.
Trudeau said “I also spoke last night with former U.S. Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, who shares our concern for Afghan women and girls.”
He continued, “She welcomed our efforts and urged Canada to continue our work. Governments, international organizations, and civil society must continue to work together to support women and girls in Afghanistan. The Afghan people need the world to stand with them. And that is what Canada will continue to do.”
Watch:
Hillary Clinton is not a member of the Biden Administration, and does not even hold a position within the US government.
Yet, chillingly, as a major world event unfolded it was her that America’s allies reached out to in the total absence of leadership.
Where Kamala Harris has gone is anyone’s guess at this point.
Biden was hiding at Camp David, and as National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan confirmed, he did not take any calls from world leaders until later in the week.
Biden actually IGNORED calls from UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson:

The drink will flow, and blood will spill...
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
Down at Dino's bar and grill
The drink will flow, and blood will spill
And if the boys wanna fight, you better let 'em
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favourite song
The nights are gettin' warmer, it won't be long
Won't be long 'til summer comes
Now that the boys are here again
