There you go. One step closer to ultimate goal.

Time to run for the BLA and it's "refugees"

They will all end up in Western capitals now. A massive anti-Pakistan intelligence nerve center will be dismembered. Remember it took the Indians, Americans and NATO forces decades to set this anti-Pakistan HQ in Afghanistan. No wonder the hawkish US/NATO generals were staunchly opposed to withdrawal. Imagine the time and effort they put into this malicious network.

The Taliban will mop the floor with these intelligence assets. When the US/NATO shouts saving interpreters they also mean snitches i.e. intelligence assets.

For those whom don't know, but Kandahar's Airport is actually adjacent to NATO's Kandahar Airfield.

After Bagram, it was/is the 2nd Largest Base in Afghanistan. Not sure if its still active.

But if the Taliban have gotten a hold of this City, and if the NATO troops aren't there - that Base probably has a lot of goodies lying around.

Just the strategic importance is enough justification to snatch it from Northern Alliance crooks.

Guys:

1. The city hasn't fallen yet.

2. I believe that Kandahar was a very minor airbase. Probobaly nothing there.

Really ?

So which other Airfield do you think was bigger (other than Bagram)?

This f#*kin' Base housed everything from F-16's to A-10's. From Reapers to Harriers. From C-130's to C-17 Globemaster III's. It was certainly not a 'minor' airbase.

I think I might still have my 'Entry' pass.

@PradoTLC - Did you have to do the biometrics each time too?

I'm no expert. My understanding is that Bagram did 95% of the work. Yes, it may have been the 'second', but still much smaller. I'm not playing tennis here, if you have info on what it housed let us know.

I already did a couple of weeks back - in some Topic I have no clue about now.

Yeah, Bagram was the largest Base because it was right outside the valley of Kabul. Barely a 10-15mins flight.

But Kandahar was huge too.

I just asked a buddy of mine who worked at Kandahar Airfield for AeroTech Aviation & he has informed me that NATO handed the Afghans the Base back in May.

This is an estimate of situation. Only American continous massive airstrikes are keeping Taliban at bay. Taliban have suffered casualties here but are still mounting pressure against all odds.

Fall of Kandahar will be a seismic blow to kabul regime.
