I doubt they care about that. If they are still alive and able to go to the bathroom, it’s a win.

Sure, but these guys have been hiding in caves for a long time. She’s at least a cave 9.5

Her 10 min segment on CNN earlier was one of the hardest thing I've watched in a while.

These kids being thrown over the fence are getting to me.

Whoa, whoa, let's float back down to reality for a moment. She may have been criticizing the Biden regime but, it wasn't for reasons you would logically think.

For God's Sake, she is employed by a corporation that despises and hates Americans probably more than the Taliban does.

She was likely just upset that the Taliban, in her mind, weren't getting a fair shake from Biden and the United States and she felt that wasn't a good thing.

Watch what she did, dude. Not everyone who works for CNN is a monster. We should prop up people like Clarissa Ward.

I’m going to give her the benefit of the doubt that that was poorly worded


They cut her off to make her look retarded. I forgot the wording she used but she basically said they were friendly THEN said she was stunned by that.

Trump voter, MAGA guy here....the girl got a bad rap on that one.

I have the gist of what she did just by watching that one segment where she praised the good guys Taliban for being really friendly. She didn't understand why they would chant Death to Stupid Murica when they were actually quite good and outstanding men and super, super friendly.

How much further do I need to dig to find out it's just another CNN stooge?

You’re an idiot, and I’m the one that posted that thread here and raged about it. I was wrong and overreacted. Got to take everything into account.

How about you go out to Afghanistan and report on it? Oh right you’re not going to do that since you’re a pussy. She’s braver than I am.

Bro, she was absolutely astounded and couldn't wrap her mind around how the Taliban, people she viewed as polite, friendly, and just all-around great folk would be chanting Death To Stupid Muricans.

It was like her worlds collided and she had a choice to make. Would she stick by Biden's Regime and show them the proper respect or would she believe what she saw with her own eyes, the humanity of the Taliban.

"They seem quite friendly" . . . "except for the death to America chants."


..... and except for the fact they tried to "pistol whip" our team with rifle butts..... and except for that poor girl shot thru the head for not wearing a headcovering..... and except for the Americans being beaten or worse at checkpoints.... or except for going door to door executing Afghans who aided the US. Otherwise "friendly"

Yeah.
She did a great job.
F CNN!

Clarissa is badass... since the day shite hit the fan - out reporting from ground level... chaos, uncertainty - even to the point of her life... very courageous and absolutely one of the best reporters to cover what's going on inside. Glad she's safe and appreciate the risks she took to report.
