Not to mention that, even if decommissioned, the parts are still worth plenty to fund future terrorism.

"The Taliban are letting 200 American citizens and an unnamed number of other foreign nationals leave Afghanistan by plane on Thursday, The Wall Street Journal reported.

The departure is the first of its kind since the US military pulled out all its remaining forces from Kabul on August 30, surrendering control of the airport to the Taliban and ending the evacuation of American citizens and eligible Afghans. Other western countries, including the UK, ended their evacuations before the US.

The 200 Americans and the other foreign nationals are to be flown out of Afghanistan on Thursday to Qatar, on a Qatar Airways Boeing 777 jet that landed in Kabul hours earlier, The Journal said.

A senior Qatari official told The Journal that all the passengers hold foreign passports, so Thursday's flight wasn't an evacuation flight."

About time that the Taliban finally capitalized on it as a world-stage, propaganda opportunity: "See? We're humane. We care more about the remaining Americans than their own country did."
