So the DEA drafts a plan in late January of 1995, and it's kind of got like the Cold War spy intrigue mystique to it, right?
Afridi's going to get himself to Frankfurt, Germany.
Agents are going to meet him at Frankfurt Main International Airport and walk him next door.
And next door is doing a lot of work here because next door is the U.S.
Air Force Base.
The two facilities basically share runways.
There, they're going to load him onto a U.S.
Air Force aircraft.
And not just any aircraft.
The cable specifically wants a plane that can be refueled in flight
And it explains why, so that there is no stopover anywhere where Freedy could have a change of heart and claim political asylum.
Also, the cable notes, the moment the wheels leave the ground on a U.S.
registered military aircraft, he's effectively in custody.
So they're basically designing a flight with like no exits, which again, I don't know, man, 50 tons of halves.
This sounds like a lot of back and forth for like...
whatever he's going to get.
Yeah.
Washington approves the Air Force assets on January 25th, which brings us to January 30th, 1995, and the front lawn that's from our cold open.
Because Afridi still won't come out.
The DEA goes to the family.
