Biden admin depends on Taliban to give Americans 'safe passage' 6 weeks after Biden said he doesn't
« on: August 18, 2021, 02:07:03 am »
The White House is depending on the Taliban to give evacuating Americans "safe passage" to the Kabul airport just six weeks after President Biden said that he doesn't trust the terrorist organization.

National security adviser Jake Sullivan joined White House press secretary Jen Psaki at the podium for a press conference on Tuesday, where they took questions about the fallout from the troops withdrawal from Afghanistan, which gave way to a swift Taliban takeover of the country.

Sullivan told reporters that the administration expects the Taliban "will have to be watched and observed over time" on whether it is "prepared to meet their obligations to the basic human rights and human dignity of people, to the safe passage of people, to the airport."

"The Taliban have informed us that they are prepared to provide the safe passage of civilians to the airport, and we intend to hold them to that commitment," Sullivan also said during the briefing.

Sullivan noted the administration is "in contact with the Taliban to ensure the safe passage of people to the airport."

The president was asked just six weeks ago if he trusted the Taliban, to which he replied: "No, I do not trust the Taliban."

I never thought I'd see the day where our government would turn their back on its citizens in such a disgusting manor.

When I was half a world away fighting communists in my youth the idea that I would wind up fighting them at home in my declining years never occurred to me but here I am doing exactly that.

I wonder how much taxpayer money the great foreign policy expert promised the Taliban to let our people go? I know what I would have promised them if they didn't, hell I'm generous I would have given it to them either way!

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

IMO, had the Dems not hollowed out the Defense budget for the better part of a decade, the attempt to rescue the Iranian embassy hostages would have had a chance to succeed. In Kabul, the Talibanders will have thousands or tens of thousands of hostages, which pretty much precludes any rescue attempt(s). Will the Talibanders forgo keeping hostages? Only a fool would rely on or expect them to do so.

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

There are lots of Europeans there too, mostly Germans and Brits.

They will not permit their citizens to perish as Biden would, so I predict they will make the corridor and preserve it to get there citizens out along with Americans where our President vacations instead.
