This was a manufactured crisis by the embassy. And I want to hit on something. You said, how did she get turned over? She got turned over by a series of letters that the embassy, quote, received. And they had factual statements in them that were drafted by the embassy that were not true.

It said that the Afghans had confirmed there was family and that they didn't want to do a DNA test and that they're demanding her back. And so we actually had the man who signed those letters His testimony is in evidence in our board of inquiry. The minister, who was in a third country when he testified, but that was provided by the government in our board of inquiry, his testimony.

And this guy can't read, write, or speak English. Okay. He signed this document. In his testimony, he contradicts. He said, well, the baby's really little. We can't determine where it's from or who it's, if it's an Afghan citizen or not. But the letter says it's an Afghan citizen. And he says, my ministry can't grant guardianship to anybody. Like that's a court's job.

But the letter says they granted custody. Like everything that the embassy needed to say, they just put in there and had this guy who can't read English sign it and send it to us. And then when we threatened to sue, there was a demand letter that came from this same guy who doesn't speak English in perfect English. And it uses terms like next of kin, which is not an Afghan saying, right?

And it's literally a demand letter saying, why was the transfer delayed last week? And like, it was trying to rush the American decision-making cycle. And this child protection specialist that we got to America, he said that that was drafted by U.S.

Citizenship Services, an employee in that department, sent by WhatsApp for them to send back to the embassy to pretend like it was an arms-links transaction and it was an Afghan demand. So, like, the Afghans were doing whatever the American in charge was having them do. And this was a U.S. embassy decision, and they did a fake crisis for the benefit of the administration to deceive them.

And, I mean... I've got the email traffic. It's got the word doc of who drafted it at the embassy. I don't have the demand letter. Who drafted it? It was the guy in American Citizen Services.

Oh, I don't think he was. I think he was doing it at the direction of the deputy chief. Who gives a shit? Deputy chief of mission. Well, he's an Afghan. I don't want to put him at risk.
