Lets say it is fake, would you agree that Pompeo is a good guy? If so I don't think it is unreasonable that he is in a secure location and not putting himself out there to be injured or taken out. bottom line is the message that he is portraying is consistent with his narrative he has had for along time. These imposters or fakes have been used for prominent people for quite awhile now. I would be more concerned if all of a sudden there was a big change in his narrative.

This is priceless.
Commander In Chief being told by a teleprompter what to do.
As an aside. The rhetoric about this event is fun. Team White Hat gets to be righteously indignant no matter what. I for one figure the Afghani folks have a right to live their lives, even if it isn't in accord of "western" beliefs. I don't think the Afghani people have lost any sleep over the horrendous Credit Card debt suffocating the average person here, or stressed about foreclosures or anything for that matter. I don't think they have meetings to decide on Americas Trans Reproductive Justice Failures.
Consideration must be in kind for it to be valuable or worthwhile.
It does show one thing. The US is horrendous as Nation Building. 100% failure rate, ignoring all the darker reasons for invasion or puppet governments, we suck at this. Our glass house has nothing but broken windows.
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar, one of the co-founders of the Taliban, was freed from jail in Pakistan three years ago at the request of the U.S. government.
Just nine months ago, he posed for pictures with Donald Trump's Secretary of State Mike Pompeo to sign a peace deal in Doha which today lies in tatters.
On Sunday, his forces seized Kabul and he is now tipped to become Afghanistan's next leader in a reversal of fortune which humiliates Washington.
While Haibatullah Akhundzada is the Taliban's overall leader, Baradar is head of its political office and one of the most recognisable faces of the chiefs who have been involved in peace talks in Qatar.
The 53-year-old was deputy leader under ex-chief Mullah Mohammed Omar, whose support for Al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden led to the US-led invasion of Afghanistan after 9/11.
Baradar is reported to have flown immediately from Doha to Kabul on Sunday evening as the militants were storming the presidential palace.
"I'm proud of the fact over the last decade California has taken in more refugees than any other state in America, and I'm proud of the fact adisproportionate number of Afghani refugees are here in Northern California
The young Afghan attackers are saying, yes, that they have no impulse control, that their hormones are raging, and that they hate themselves and the world—but most especially, that they will not tolerate women who are happy, confident and feeling safe in public spaces. They are saying that they have no intention of respecting law, custom, public opinion, local values or common decency, all of which they hate so much that they are ready to put their own lives, their constructive futures and their freedom on the line for the satisfaction of inflicting damage.
Taliban spokesperson said, from now on, Afghanistan will be a narcotics-free country, but he said, this needs international assistance. “We need alternative crops, and we hope to bring this scourge to an end.”
We had brought narcotics production to a halt in 2001. That is something we will do. Afghanistan will be drug-free from now on, according to Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.

Keep this in mind. When South Africa was allowed to self rule, (like AFG now) the person best suited for the job was a guy who was in prison for ages. Not a politician with world experience, but a guy formally held in solitary confinement. The world cheered this absolutely absurd solution, mostly because he had a charming smile and hand wave.
What I mean by this is the Black Hat pattern exists on Earth and can be accessed by White Hats with no downside. Also consider what we know about clones, bots, doubles, actor etc. and apply.
Meet the next leader of Afghanistan: Abdul Ghani Baradar is veteran resistance fighter who saw off the Russians and was FREED from a Pakistani jail by Donald Trump as part of deal with Taliban

It would appear the leader of AFG was chosen by DJT and the White Hat team ages ago. A scripted movie with all the bad parts falling on Team Joe, who are now all screaming at each other over who is to blame. Glorious.

took a slight diversion .... on a small OWL Hunting expedition....
Exposing The “Secret Owl Society” Soaring Through History
There is a fair amount of evidence that the owl is the chief symbol of an elite yet undiscovered secret society moving through history. In this article we’ll examine this evidence and uncover the lineage of this secret society. We’ll also learn how the magic, majestic, and nocturnal owl actually symbolizes an ancient self-empowerment doctrine once known and practiced worldwide.,,,,,,
A “Secret Owl Society”—a hidden, fraternal Order that uses the owl as its trademark—could very well be exerting a hidden yet continuous and measurable influence on world affairs, undetected by scholars, journalists, and historians.
Its members, possibly those same scholars, journalists, and historians, are well-versed in mystical traditions, ancient mystery teachings, and eastern philosophies.
This Secret Owl Society remains well-hidden. But if we look back in time and connect all the fraternal orders that have owl logos, we begin to see its lineage, operating for centuries.
Note the society’s chronology below:
Pallas Athene (or Minerva to the Romans), the goddess of wisdom, honored the owl as her sacred bird. The owl was recognized as an emblem of penetrating sight and intelligence.
It was considered to be a favorable omen if an owl was spotted on the battle field or at times of crisis.
The Athenian silver tetradrachm bore the owl (Athene noctua); and owls were protected and thrived in great numbers at the Acropolis of Athens (a temple dedicated to Athena).

Throwing Biden under the bus...will he be the next to step down
Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar Akhund (born 1968) is a co-founder of the Taliban in Afghanistan. He was the deputy of Mullah Mohammed Omar, who nicknamed him 'Baradar', which means 'brother', or Mullah Brother. Baradar was captured in Pakistan by a team of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) officers in February 2010 and was released on 24 October 2018 at the request of the United States. Since his release he played an increasingly influential role within the Afghan Taliban movement.
