2021-08-16 21:22:53 Apparently the Taliban are posted up outside the airport as “security” to not allow anyone in. There doesn’t appear to be any plans by then of entering the airport, likely until all foreign forces have left. Open / Comment

2021-08-16 20:31:55 There are some egregiously terrible reporting on Twitter of what is happening at the Kabul airport. I take the time to verify information and see what is credible and you should too if you are trying to get information for yourself. Just because a post has a bunch of retweets doesn’t make it true. This is mostly in reference to people claiming the Taliban is inside the airport or the military is mowing down crowds. Open / Comment

2021-08-16 17:06:18 I’m aware of the footage going around of at least three dead bodies at the Kabul airport. There is a lot of conflicting reports whether or not they died by military gunfire or one of the many stampedes that have taken place in the last 24 hours. Just waiting for more clear information.

2021-08-16 07:41:32 Also just to clarify, at the Kabul airport there is a military side and a commercial side. The military side is secure and most of the chaos we are seeing is on the commercial side. NATO and remaining Afghan forces are keeping the crowds back. Open / Comment

2021-08-16 07:35:48 Also big thanks to all the Patreon supporters. Working with some people to get a podcast, website, and merch through suppliers so they can be cheaper. I hope to get out incentives for backers soon. Things out of my control move at their own pace so it’s just a waiting game. Open / Comment

2021-08-16 07:33:24 If I get the main page back I’m considering disabling on my own temporarily for a month or two to really clear the heat off it. I would then archive almost every post involving Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and any terror attacks. I hope to transfer them over to a website to be accessed as a reference page. By then the atlas.news2 might be as big as the main so who knows. Only good thing to come out of the main page being taken down is that I have a true clean slate with content and so far no posts have been removed or reported (knock on wood). I will probably make it a habit to archive content a few days after posting to make sure the page won’t be at risk. Open / Comment
