    What exactly were those ladies going to teach the Afghan women that would in any way be practical? The irony is that the taxpayers of both countries that mobilized to rescue them wasted enough money to provide meals and medicines for every Afghan kid for years.

      Understood. But their are people like this two aid ladies, who wanted to serve the less fortunate people in the remote areas in the world. Which for me is something to emulate. We are not alone in this world their are places that needs our help. And our goverment are willing to risk at just to help and something to be proub of. You not the only one paying the taxes we too are paid, and paying enough taxes to be used for the greater good of his countrymen and the orginazation around the world we are part with. ❤️💙

      The media called it Operation Jubilee - the SAS called it Op Kestrel - they weren’t ’aid workers’ they were spies! 6 SAS guys from D Squadron took the caves as British intel knew where the hostages were - the US troops were sent to another valley of no value. SBS weren’t involved at all. Air troop dropped in 12 miles out and took the hostage takers by surprise and it was over in minutes. Glass bottles were broken at the entrance to the caves and the hostages shoes were taken by the Taliban so they couldn’t escape - the only thing the SAS didn’t prepare for. They slaughtered the Taliban and left unscathed - albeit carrying out the hostages with no shoes. The 6 guys got invited to No.10 to meet Cameron and got MID awards on their afghan medals. That’s what actually happened

      It’s wasn’t an SBS operation - it was an SAS operation. My brother in law was one of the 6 man squad who took the cave where the British hostage was - it was his job to carry her out with his colleague. The hostages had their shoes taken and glass bottles were smashing at the entrance of the cave so they couldn’t escape. He got a mention in dispatches for the op. Which was actually called Op Kestrel not Jubilee. Yanks weren’t involved at all

    I've seemed to have heard the name of that Swiss non-profit aid organization linked to more than a few hostage/kidnapping incidents over the years. They must be fond of taking huge risks in sending innocents into some very bad places and situations around the world. It would also seem that grabbing the big headlines in the press is pretty valuable to them if there's any measurable successes. Besides, if things go bad, they've got the military to do all their dirty work for them.
