The State Department and Department of Defense issued a joint statement on Sunday saying that they are trying to get thousands of American citizens out of Afghanistan. The Americans were residing in the country and/or “locally employed staff of the U.S. mission in Kabul….” They are stranded with “their families and other particularly vulnerable Afghan nationals.”
Many of them undoubtedly have dual citizenship. One report stated the number is 10,000.
This is as the Taliban is committing “revenge killings” and collecting citizens’ guns.
Biden will grace us with his presence today and give a teleprompter speech about Afghanistan. No doubt he will blame everyone but himself.
Press release:
At present we are completing a series of steps to secure the Hamid Karzai International Airport to enable the safe departure of U.S. and allied personnel from Afghanistan via civilian and military flights. Over the next 48 hours, we will have expanded our security presence to nearly 6,000 troops, with a mission focused solely on facilitating these efforts and will be taking over air traffic control. Tomorrow and over the coming days, we will be transferring out of the country thousands of American citizens who have been resident in Afghanistan, as well as locally employed staff of the U.S. mission in Kabul and their families and other particularly vulnerable Afghan nationals. And we will accelerate the evacuation of thousands of Afghans eligible for U.S. Special Immigrant Visas, nearly 2,000 of whom have already arrived in the United States over the past two weeks. For all categories, Afghans who have cleared security screening will continue to be transferred directly to the United States. And we will find additional locations for those yet to be screened.
Why wasn’t this done prior to this fiasco?
This is also going on as thousands of Afghans are chasing planes and in some cases clinging to them and falling off as the planes take off. This is how desperate and panic-stricken they are.
The Taliban is engaging in brutal tactics and people are terrified of them. They are terrorists every bit as terrible as ISIS.

It’s a lot worse than watching helicopters lift Americans off the Embassy roof in Saigon:
From a livestream last night there are reports of other countries and their “investments” in Afghanistan. In almost every case this has led more to the plundering of a nation that “building it”. It’s the difference in how the Marshall Plan worked. We saw the result in Haiti with the Clinton Foundation. There is also the experience of Russia when Yeltsin came in. There were huge investments from “Capitalist” countries and they did their own version of plundering. Certain American companies were “capitalizing” on the situation and plundered the nation for profits, by hook or crook, taken from the country. This is why Putin came to power, and also the reason the hostility by the US towards him. Putin put and end to the plundering, and now it seems Afghanistan was another country that was being plundered.
Now we finally See the What If.

I never knew Biden was a comedian.
Rep. Crenshaw Notwithstanding, THIS is how you get Another 9-11, NOT leaving Afghanistan.

Watching the rest of a livestream from yesterday and the entire world is mocking this.
You cannot have a modern military fighting force with This crap.

I remember when the Navy decided to put women on ships. The result was an explosion of Pregnancies. World War II will be the last war the US will be capable of winning.
Can it get any worse. Obama, help me, Please, I need help, NOW. It would be classic if Biden gets questions on all the revelations in the past days.

What a Damn Stupid response. If Nothing Else, he Could have at least put out a statement.
Afghanistan was Russia’s Vietnam, and now we have our Vietnam 2.0. What a damn disgrace.
Only recently had I seen a map with areas of control. Obviously the Pentagon has such maps. When one sees that; What in hell were we doing the past 20 friggin years. The only US control was an area right in the center. All the rest was Taliban control.
There Should be massive firings TODAY, for this incompetent strategy. It was basically a small country within a larger country. Because we didn’t accomplish Jack, we instead will end up creating far more Jihadis. After TRILLIONS This was all we accomplished, Kabul and a small surrounding area. With all our satellite, air and ground technology it sure doesn’t seem to fit the “force multiplier” strategy.
What are the chances Biden will take questions this afternoon, and if so, how soon before he stomps out in a fit of rage. His personality in the past shows he cannot withstand any criticism whatsoever.
The Long Marchers hate them anyway and a Benghazi redux is a feature and not a bug to the Chicago comrades and the Weather Underground Government (WUG).
CNN Reporter in Kabul: “They’re Just Chanting ‘Death to America’ But They Seem Friendly at the Same Time” ?????………….you mean kinda like the riots in Minneapolis were “fiery, but mostly peaceful” as the city burned down ?????
The corrupt US establishment stole the 2020 election. Now they have deliberately placed the USA into a position of escalation. It’s impossible that Intel and DOD did not know that pulling out before evacuation would lead to this. Trump had too much integrity and smarts to allow this. Biden and Blankhead ae merely tools for the corrupt establishment. Escalation is already underway.
