Not to worry. “Valdosta police Chief Brian Childress said Wednesday that there’s ‘zero evidence’ the men are terrorists.” And we all know how good Obama-era authorities are at smoking out terrorists — just look at San Bernardino. Anyway, these men are “vetted moderates,” just like their comrades back home who committed all those green-on-blue attacks on American servicemen who were training and aiding them. What could possibly go wrong? They’re probably just on their way to the nearest Catholic Church to engage in some “dialogue.”
“Two Afghan Trainees Missing From Air Force Base in Georgia,” by Jim Miklaszewski, NBC News, December 8, 2015:
The U.S. Air Force and Georgia police on Tuesday were searching for two Afghan trainees who failed to show up for their training at Moody Air Force Base in southern Georgia on Monday.
The two trainees have been at Moody AFB since February and were screened and vetted before arriving in the U.S. more than a year ago, the Air Force base said in a statement.
“The students have trained alongside American counterparts for the entirety of 2015 and do not pose any apparent threat,” the statement said. “There is a well-coordinated process among federal agencies to locate the individuals as quickly as possible and return them accordingly to the proper authorities to manage their present situation.”
A Defense Department official repeated that neither missing trainee is believed to pose any kind of threat, and said that with all the U.S.-based training the military does with foreign service members, occasionally individuals leave base without authorization.
But the terror attack in San Bernardino, California, last week that was carried out by a couple who are believed to have been radicalized has raised concerns near the base where the trainees went missing, the official said, and the military is working with law enforcement to find the two men.
Air Force and Defense Department officials said the missing trainees were receiving maintenance instruction at Moody AFB. They were assigned to the 81st Fighter Squadron. The base is near Valdosta, Georgia, about 30 miles from the border with Florida….

Don McKellar says
Two more ticking moslem time-bombs slipped away on the Obama regime. More will follow and many more Americans will die in the name of jihad before Obama’s time is over, and for several years to come.
Christianblood says
It would be great if they teach America another lesson about the peacefulness of their islamic faith.
TheBuffster says
If they do, I sure hope it’s not on anybody I know and love.
The trouble with getting taught that kind of lesson is that it means the deaths and severe injury of people like you and me. I’d settle for them getting caught while preparing for jihad.
It’s not impossible, however, that the two have been knocked off by Muslims who take issue with other Muslims working for the US military.
Christianblood says
Americans and other Westerners won’t learn their lessons until they get much more demonstrative lessons about the real peacefulness of the islam religion and that is why we need these two Afghani muslims to demonstrate some more peaceful lessons about islam to Obama and to America.
Jay Boo says
Better yet, Christianblood they could demonstrate their Muslim carpet kissing skills and bark at the moon like Islam’s phony prophet Muhammad until Obama got the message that Muslims are buffoons just like MO and his sock puppet Allah.
Kepha says
@Christianblood: As someone who knows something about how illegal immigration works, there’s also a possibility that, coming to a strip mall near you, a new kebab place.
Christianblood says
Kepha
You need to take off your American glasses! I don’t go to ‘strip’ malls or kebab places and I have never ever been even to a night club in my life.
As an Orthodox Christian, my goal in life is (Theosis) or to be born again in every single day of my life!
jihad3tracker says
During their training, the words “Skype webcam show” were explained to those innocent fellows.
The base’s internet connection was too slow so they left for a couple of days at a local public library.
Jay Boo says
Ok, Donald Trump, “What was in those two large boxes marked ship back to Afghanistan”?
Sam says
It amazing how QUICKLY some people get radicalized. I want to get radicalized (whatever it means) also. Can anyone tell me how to get radicalized?
john spielman says
‘ the two missing Afghan airmen are not believed to pose a danger to the public” …. BOOM!!!!, uh…. we believe we have found them!
PrayerWarrior says
Meanwhile, Putin has just threatened to use nukes on the terrorists.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/putin-has-threatened-to-use-nuclear-weapons-against-isis-but-hopes-they-will-never-be-needed-a6766196.html
Doesn’t anyone now if Putin is a Jihad Watch reader?
Though popularly called for in some quarters, nukes really are not a good idea, and not just because of the escalation problems they cause. Remember that above ground nuclear testing was stopped because the fallout from it was putting Iodine-131 (cancer causing) and Stronium-90 (showing up in the teeth of children) into our eco-systems. If nukes start getting used, just using them will be enough to make our planet uninhabitable.
The only way terrorism is going to be fought is up close and personal.
Ric says
Indeed, PrayerWarrior; no one apparently of our spineless Overlords has the chutzpah to fight terrorism up close and personal. Sadly, when troops are on the ground to fight, their hands are tied by so-called rules-of-engagement.
Thomas says
The fact that they are AWOL makes it suspicious.
They should be arrested & jailed or deported ASAP!
quotha raven says
to Thomas – who suggests, “:They should be arrested & jailed or deported ASAP!”
Why don’t we just catch them and give them a cozy little desk job, like we did with Beau Bergdhal?
Maybe Beau could help them along with their “assimilation:…
Cheers!

This is the complete insanity of not “knowing” the islamic enemy. They could show up at any base, and cause complete destruction if they are stricken by global warming or jihad….
I think the readers here should call Paul Ryan, new leader of the House, with request to inform himself about sharia and islam. I actually called him yesterday…left a message….doubt he got it but I tried to inform him. The Republicans are foolish for not acknowledging and speaking out about Trump and his attempts to get the message out…on the dangers.
Two airforce trained afghan soldiers on the loose could make their way to Tampa,,,,bad news…..
After 9/11 I came face to face with two very tall dark hair,ME handsome men in military dress, with Saudi pins on the lapel…near a military base,
askng for directions out of a building. I thought they looked like U.S. military uniforms and I was completely unnerved and all my associates thought I was off the wall. That building is now gone.
somehistory says
MacDill AFB near Tampa, is U.S.Central Command and home of, I believe, the 6th Support Squadron.
Would these guys go there?
That would be a hardened target.
Would they go to Disney World? The guys at Disney may be more prepared than some places, but they are still a soft target.
If they find these guys before they totally disappear or carry out some attack plan, they will, most likely, claim they just wanted to look around and got lost.
underbed cat says
Yep, that is the name, I didn’t want to use it. So hardened must mean they could not fly in, undetected I hope.
So it seems you know the military, were there Saudi soldiers at Great Lakes Naval base…maybe they were considered partners at that time. In the surrounding area, there were many with muslim names. Educated, polite but you could feel the …hardened seriousness. Before and after….
Before is quite a story..and a intense face you can’t forget..
somehistory says
So they’ve been in the country for more than a year…about the same time as Mrs. farook, murderer and orphan maker. By leaving the base without permission, they have broken the law. Nothing to keep them from breaking others.
satan’s beast is prowling everywhere, seeking to devour as does satan, all those who will not worship him and his beast or bow to its image.
(Revelation 13)
Angemon says
Next time, shove a tracker up their asses before letting them loose in American soil. Or better yet: don’t bring them in.
Pig Jizya says
“The students have trained alongside American counterparts for the entirety of 2015 and do not pose any apparent threat,”
WOW they were able to maintain practicing Taqiyya for a whole year and refrain from murdering anybody!!!!!! That obviously means they are safe!!!!
SpiritOf1683 says
Even when being screened and vetted, they can still lie. Screening and vetting is no proof that they’re honest. Next time their names crop up, it might not be so pleasant.
citycat says
Should not that quotation read-
‘no evidence, they’re terrorists’
Westman says
Has anyone thought that these men, essentially working for US interests, might be targeted as apostates by radical elements within the US? What has happened to these Afghans might be completely opposite to what we typically imagine.
My experience us that the “nerdy” maintenence worker personalities are not disposed toward violence. I’m going to wait before even suggesting these guys are militants.
undrbed cat says
Like the guy, at the Kansas airport, …in the maintenance dept. He got busted.
I have not seen an photos or news on CNN on this interesting.
Gerald Mucci says
“No evidence”. Isn’t that what Obama said a few days before San Bernardino? This is EXACTLY why what Trump proposes is essential. Our house is definitely NOT in order regarding the Islamic threat. We have our hands full with the Muslim hoards already in this country and the potential for jihad from within WITHOUT further increasing odds of terror with additional Muslim immigrants.
PS: I hope that soon Spencer and Geller can get over their anger at Trump for the Garland event. He’s learning and more action oriented than any other candidate.
richard courtemanche says
They may have been seeking refuge at 24 Sussex.
Bobby G says
No evidence? They’re Muslims from Afghanistan and have gone off the grid in our country. That seems to me to be very good evidence that they’re up to something.
