A Walkabout in Southern Georgia
12th December 2015
Two culture-enriching soldiers have gone AWOL from Moody Air Force Base in southern Georgia. The two men, Mirwais Kohistani and Shirzad Rohullah, are from Afghanistan, our staunch ally in the “War on Terror”. They are part of a contingent brought into the USA for training.
The fact that Homeland Security is now leading the search for Messrs. Kohistani and Rohullah is a sign that someone in high places is very worried about them. And the public release of their names and photos tells us that DHS is serious about trying to find them — or is at least engaging in advance CYA, keeping in mind recent events in San Bernardino.
I don’t blame them. I’ve seen Afghanistan; even Georgia is better.
Good job of screening, there, guys; let’s do better than that on the Syrian refugees, shall we?
The two soldiers have been here for ten months. Why did they wait until now to disappear? Does the timing have anything to do with the mass purchase by Muslims of hundreds of cell phones at several Wal-Mart stores in Missouri?
I guess we’ll find out. Fortunately, these characters seem to have the minimal intelligence not to play these games in Texas.
