Hundreds of students, their relatives and staff of the American University of Afghanistan gathered at a safe house on Sunday and boarded buses in what was supposed to be a final attempt at evacuation on U.S. military flights, the students said.

But after seven hours of waiting for clearance to enter the airport gates and driving around the city, the group met a dead end: Evacuations were permanently called off. The airport gates remained a security threat, and civilian evacuations were ending Monday.

“I regret to inform you that the high command at HKIA in the airport has announced there will be no more rescue flights,” said an email sent to students from the university administration on Sunday afternoon, which was shared with The New York Times.

‘7 buses loaded with American women all likely dead now’…

Citizen Free Pressby Kane on August 30, 2021

Emily Miller — “There’s 7 buses of female American citizens. The CG refused to open the gate. We have a congressman with us and he had the state department reach out. MG Donahue refused. 10 minutes ago the females were taken by the Taliban. They are likely dead now.”

Fellow Americans --  we need a significant movement to take place to save the poor Afghan people and stranded American citizens.

There are several groups of retired special operations guys and other veterans who have gathered significant private funding and moved lots of assets to begin rescuing people from Afghanistan since our Government refuses to do their job.

These groups have sent private planes into Kabul and been told they could not.

They have shuttled busses of American citizens to the Kabul airport and at have been told to leave and that the were not allowed to fly out.

Some of these other groups have been granted access to fly into neighboring countries to launch tactical flights to recover personnel just to have the @StateDept
  come behind them and shut the door.

The U.S. Government has given rosters with the names of all our Afghan partners and American citizens to the Taliban, saying “we did it so the Taliban would allow them in.” We all know that’s not the real reason, and who would be that stupid anyway!

The stats they are pushing on the news are false. There are many more American citizens who want to escape but have no option because our own government keeps halting all actions.
 
We who are trying to save these people have run into roadblock after roadblock.

Everyone can understand that this is an embarrassment to the current administration but that’s no reason to stop these valiant acts of selfless service.
 
If you believe in the sanctity of human life then you need to make your voice heard as loud as possible.

This is the worst disaster in American history and being magnified by this pure evil attempt to stop the actions of those who truly care. This must stop!

"The only way to put and end to this is if everyone will band together and make your voice heard in person and through every platform available. Go to your State Capitols! Call every politician you know!"

These reports out of Kabul are too awful to believe

These reports out of Kabul are too awful to believe
By Andrea Widburg

American troops are due to leave Afghanistan on Tuesday, even though uncounted Americans are stuck in the country. And by stuck, it appears that our American government is deliberately denying them access to Kabul airport. This isn’t a wild rumor. Instead, it comes from two eminently reliable reporters (Lara Logan and Emily Miller) and from Rep. Dan Crenshaw, a former Navy SEAL.

On Saturday afternoon, Lara Logan first notified the world that American passports weren’t getting people into the airport:

By Sunday, she had something worse to report:

American University of Afghanistan students and relatives trying to flee were sent home.

An odd usage of the word, "Home."  One with which I was previously unfamiliar.

Home is where these folks were trying to get.
