A US Airforce Plane stalled on the runway at Kabul Airport.
Reported by Consuela Alvarez as told by witness Ali Mohammed Muhamad Mohammedi
Earlier this week, a United States Airforce Plane stalled on the runway during takeoff, and needed the assistance of over one hundred Afghan men to help get it started again.
A huge effort to push start the plane was successful.
According to a witness a huge effort by over one hundred Afghan men [not women], banded together to help push start the stalled US plane. At first, half of the men pushed from the back of the plane, while the other half pushed from the front, unfortunately the plane did not move as they were pushing in opposite directions [against each other].
On the second attempt, only the men at the rear of the plane pushed as the men at the front could not hear the order to start pushing.
The third attempt was more successful as one of the Afghani men was a soldier and he had a gun, he gave the command to start pushing when he fired his riffle.
He [the Afghani soldier], fired his gun and upon hearing the shot every man pushed with all their might, the engines coughed a couple of times with a great roar, they kicked into full power which allowed the US plane to finally take off.
Unfortunately the plane left empty.
A series of random unfortunate events soon took place!
According to the witness (also known as Paulie) when the Afghani soldier fired his riffle, the Taliban thought they were being shot at, so they returned fire wounding twenty nine Afghan men, which caused the plane to take off for its own safety, once the plane was in the air a missile was fired from the United States Army personnel towards the Taliban, narrowly missing the US plane which had just taken off.
A spokesperson for the Afghan men said, we are glad we got that piece of crap off the runway so a decent plane can land and take us away.
When this reporter asked where are all the women and children that are to be saved, his reply was, "Sorry I don't speak English".
