Airfields. they dont have air traffic controllers. there are a lot of nations that wont put their aircraft into any of the air fields. so its going to be problematic. after the evacuation is complete, its going to be over land with people who are willing to be mulemules. thats going to be small groups. >> congressman, there is a lot of criticism today for two members of congress, a democrat and a republican, who made an unauthorized visit to afghanistan, both iraq war veterans. they said they wa...
