Instead of attacking the Taliban holding Americans hostage…

The White House is going after kids to force them to wear masks!

Disgraceful!!

Mike, my husband, said the Army and I am sure every branch have instructions on how to destroy equipment like this in case of withdrawing...or being over run...

Hell you can pour sand in the gas tank of the humvees...shoot out the ignition...They had plenty of time to destroy this equipment...

That was true 50 years ago. But I doubt the message ever got to the Afghan military.

French Embassy still open

The French embassy in Kabul has become an 'internally displaced persons camp'

Tim O'Donnell  1 day ago

The French embassy remains the last operating Western mission in Kabul after the Taliban swept the Afghan capital earlier this week, and hundreds of Afghans have reportedly been camping around the compound over the past three days in the hopes of entering and eventually finding a way out of the country, The Wall Street Journal reports.

The situation reportedly reached a point on Tuesday night at which the embassy ran out of food rations and water to hand out to people, though a convoy of 10 buses made their way to the compound and transferred folks to a French military plane en route to Abu Dhabi.  .  .  .

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/the-french-embassy-in-kabul-has-become-an-internally-displaced-persons-camp/ar-AANt6qv


So explain to me how the French can drive a convoy of ten buses through the streets of Kabul, load them up with people, and then drive them back to the airport, load them on planes, and fly them out of the country, yet we are sitting there with our thumbs up our asses telling our own people that they are on their own.

That is the plan.  Take advantage of the crisis to dump hundreds of thousands of Afghanis into this country.

Arming the Taliban with advanced weaponry funded by the American taxpayers will be the highlight of the Biden foreign policy legacy.

US officials say the most powerful nation on earth lacks capacity to extend operations into Kabul to collect stranded citizens & people we have a duty to protect. But the UK & French governments are reportedly doing exactly that. But we can’t? We can. We are choosing not to. Why?

The US citizens stuck in Afghanistan will be forced to pay for their flights back to America.

According to the State Department, flights can be "$2,000 or more"

I wonder how much the thousands of Afghanis had to pay to be flown on US-Taxpayer funded aircraft?

Sounds very familiar to me. I'm recalling very similar messages from Libia some years ago.

I gotta say, I never expected CNN and MSNBC to turn on Biden this fast. That just shows how wildly unpopular his handling of Afghanistan has been. This is going to be his legacy.
