The military guard at the check point had come out at this point. I called for assistance to the guard saying "help I've been kidnapped". Straight after that I was surrounded by the Compass Force Protection crew which emanated from the other Compass support vehicles...
At some point another guard entered the back of the vehicle and he was pulling me into the vehicle. There were approximately 5 people that were pulling me and hitting me and I ended up being forcibly put back into the vehicle. This was witnessed by the guards at the checkpoint."

This part kind of struck me as being odd. It implies either that the military guards at the checkpoint in Kandahar had some sort of deal with the Compass folks or they were extremely apathetic about someone claiming to be kidnapped and being visibly forced back into a vehicle, substantiating the claim.
Profit at any cost.

While the mechanics are different, this time the people allowing, if not supplying , illegal RPGs (Rocket Propelled Grenades)..
(1) bring justice to numerous US military families, especially to the men and women stationed in Alaska who have died and continue to die of "unknown" causes without investigations even though reports stated foul play, drug cartel, and weapons trafficking; 2) syndicate a national and global awareness of rogue militants allowed to join the United States Armed Forces today to operate against itself appointed at the highest levels; and, 3) bring justice to 45+ stationed Alaska military rape victims who after reporting through the proper channels up the chain of command were left without investigations into their cases and rather actually ignored. It is said to be a cover up that goes deep. A connection much bigger than humanly imaginable. The drug cartel, guns trafficking, operating out of mainly Fort Greely, Alaska. FBI agent Karl Hansen flew to Alaska with a second agent from Washington DC with orders from his superiors to investigate the unknown deaths and claims of drug cartel operating out of Alaska, as well the 45+ reported rape victims that were left un-investigated. Star generals are reported involved at the highest levels, and at one point, it was remarked how "this is movie stuff" shaking his head. Colonel Blaylock when questioned said it is the residual effects of Eric Holder's Operation Fast and Furious that is being injected into our military. Colonel Blaylock has gone to 11 sources to get help, and then in the middle of investigations, April 2012, he was terminated from the US Armed Forces after 29.5 years serving. Sources Made Aware 1 FBI 2 Alaska StateTrooper 3 Anchorage Police Department (APD) 4 US Marshals 5 Senator Begich 6 Senator Murkowski 7 Governor Parnell 8 US Army Criminal Investigation Command (CID) Fort Rich 9 Department of Army 10 Department of Defense (DoD) 11 Anchorage Daily News three (3) times
The fact Mr.Timmons could not get help [at the military checkpoint] is very scary.
The vast majority of the present Taliban are Pushtun. However, not all Pushtun support the Taliban. But the indigenous Pushtun on both sides of the Afghan and Pakistani border make up the majority of the Taliban. Which is exactly why there have been drone strikes in Pakistan

History shows the Pashtun tribes hate foreign boots on their soil. This in itself is an act of evil. How dare they hate foreign boots on their soil? Isn't it an utterly barbaric act?
It appears those barbaric knuckle-dragging Pashtun hill people
