Clarissa Ward
@clarissaward

Just landed in Doha with the team and nearly 300 Afghan evacuees. Huge thanks to all of you for your support and concern, to the US Air Force for flying us out and to Qatar for welcoming us. We are the lucky ones.


Okay then.

Looks like a bunch of red blooded Americans on the plane with her.

It was ripped out of context. In full co text what she said made perfect sense. I don’t know why the right made such a big deal about that clip.


That's because the right is stupid. We actually didn't realize how friendly and helpful and caring most Taliban members actually are.

All we've ever been told by stoop Fox News is that they kinda like hate Murica and sing bad songs about her saying Death to Murica and stuff like that.

That's all we knew because most of us don't watch CNN, etc... and didn't realize the warm humanity that drips off most members of the Taliban.

To be fair she meant it was bizarre how friendly they were acting (to her and her crew) while simultaneously chanting death to America.


Well she is saying that while working for CNN. You don’t think they chant death to America behind the scenes? It’s CNN, not one of those arse clowns care about America. Funny how after the election, the Covid death counter wasn’t on the screen.

I’ve seen plenty of female journalists wear a habib when in the middle east. I’ve never equated it with weakness or interpreted it as pandering.

I've always equated it with the urge to avoid a potential dust up with a strict and domineering Islamist male who may have had a bad day. That's an arse whipping you don't wanna mess with as a woman.

Okay then

The interview I saw with her today was her basically telling the American people that the ones being left behind are likely to be beaten, abused, or murdered by the taliban.

She was exclaiming how important it was for them to get out.

That doesn't fit the delusion that you've dreamt up.

She will be relieved of her job upon arrival. Guarantee that. She must be trans though, because what she did took some balls

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


This, and there were several men around her known to beat women holding machine guns. She has some big balls for sure.

To be fair to the Tali, sometimes they behead them first.

You are a very uninformed individual. Very angry,too. And narrow minded.

I laugh at folks like you. And feel sorry for them too.

She’s got bigger balls than you could ever hope to have.

Right. That Taliban escort she was walking around town with, with whom she had discussed all her plans with about representing them in a wonderful light, were very savage looking people.

I wonder how much the news crew paid/CNN paid them for their bodyguard services? Something had to be given in return for their services.

You are RETARD if you think she just walked up to her bodyguards and started filming and talking without spreading some money their way and perhaps paying homage to Mo-Mo and throwing in a cute little Def to Murica to let them know she wasn't like other stupid Westerners.
