Latest update from NOWZAD, the animal rescue charity I posted about last night.

The decision was made to euthanise any animal that could not travel or would not stand a chance of surviving if released back onto the streets. That has apparently left them with almost 100 cats and dogs to try to get on a plane out of Kabul along with any of the NOWZAD staff and their families who want to leave. Pen's last report was that they had made it to the airport but it was looking doubtful that they'd be able to get out of there as they are apparently now needing a pass from the Taliban in order to get into the airport. It looks like some members of the team made it in whilst some are stuck outside.

I'll update as the news comes in but it's looking like complete chaos over there right now. I know one of the UK diplomats was still in the airport processing Visas for as many people as he could for as long as he could. That man is a hero.

Yup good ol' blow back. Wait so this is Raygun's fault! Blame it on the Gipper and Al Haig, yeah that's the ticket!
