In other words, it depends on the continued permission of the Taliban.

How utterly pathetic, disgusting, .... as someone else said, words fail me.

Who would ever join the American military today?
Who would ever ally themselves with America in any future conflicts?
America has made themselves toxic internationally (and domestically) with this display of chaos and cowardice.

Korea, Vietnam, Iraq/Afghanistan have shown to the world that America is a paper tiger and will never win any war.
American leadership is focused at conducting war on their own citizens much more than they are concerned with any foreign real actual enemy. They are proud of this. They brag about it. Because in their warped tiny pea sized brains they think hating America while sympathizing with the real enemies of America makes them 'superior' and of course 'enlightened'.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

I'm sitting her in utter shock and disbelief at what I'm seeing unfold in Afghanistan.

I have no words...

I think this may be the final nail in America's projection of power and freedom abroad. I expect this to expand to far greater instability around the world.

We are collapsing from within and its spreading far beyond our borders now. Lines we thought would never be crossed have not only been crossed but crossed with impunity - over and over gain...

The @PressSec tells reporters at the White House that if they have the contact information of Americans still on the ground in Afghanistan, pass along their contact information and the administration will get in touch.

Sure, we’re actively preparing to leave thousands of American citizens to fend for themselves behind enemy lines, but let’s put this in some perspective.

The US now has decided to play war by arming their enemies first so the US can be either be defeated in battle or to surrender without firing a shot.

I just wonder if the vast majority of people now have caught on the travesty to America which has happened - our diminished power through surrendering our arms, people and prestige?

The most chiiling part of it is this is what the Dems want to happen to American citizens at home as well. - Surrender.

As am I.  I have family members who are career state department - rank-and-file, not political appointees - and they are aghast at what is going on.

Apparently Biden is now ignoring the advice of his Generals and is refusing to give the green light to any op to try and go outside the wire and get some of the people still trying to the airport.

Despite what I just said to Myst...I'd suit up tomorrow if I could.

These kids are going to need some crusty old types like myself to put some steel in their spines when it all goes pear shaped.

And I think that's gonna happen sooner than later.

I heard a break down earlier that it's been 1 American for every 15 Afghans flown out.

"BDW
@BryanDeanWright
The Americans trapped in Afghanistan will be all of us if we don’t remove The Left from power."

Verrrryyyy interesting statement there.

But... have to say that I agree with Mr. Wright in principle.
It's "the how" that remains the $64k question...
