Georgia Gov Open To Accepting Afghanistan Refugees After Taliban Takeover
AJC ^ | 08/17/21 | Greg Bluestein

Posted on 08/17/2021 11:58:03 AM PDT by Enlightened1

Gov. Brian Kemp on Tuesday criticized the “failure” to prevent the collapse of the U.S.-backed government in Afghanistan and suggested that Georgia was ready to take in some refugees following the repressive Taliban regime’s swift takeover of the country.

Kemp said in a statement that “it is vitally important to keep those who partnered with American armed forces over the last 20 years safe from harm.”

Republican governors in Maryland, Massachusetts, Utah and South Carolina have expressed willingness to accept refugees, as have a number of Democratic leaders. And top GOP contenders in Georgia’s 2022 contests have also called for the state to take in allies desperate for safe passage to the U.S.

Turns out the Middle East countries will not accept fellow muslims the Afghans in to their society. What do they know?

How many Taliban members will blend into the refugees?

Is that what he got bribed to do turning the other way to ignore the steal?

It is awfully coincidental the turn of events over the past week since the symposium.

It is being reported by a lone livid internet observer that Patton, after clawing his way out of his grave in a fit of rage, kicks
Brad Ratsnturdberger in the ass , b!ch slaps him and screams...

Minutes later Douglas McArthur claws his way out of his grave also in a fit of rage and stands next to Patton , saying,

Bush League Republicans are just as dangerous as Democrats.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

No need, Republican voters are as stupid as Democrats.

Look no further than South Carolina that re-elected Flimsey Grahamnesty TWICE after he voted for amnesty and a permanent Democrat majority THREE times.

Check out the pic...

Plane full of MEN... and some women and even less kids.

What great citizens they're going to make, the males (I won't call them nen) who abandon their women and kids to the Taliban.

WTG, Kemp.

There was someone a talk show on the way home...he served there ..and said they new some people they were training were probably Taliban.

So when we bring all these people to this country we might make a big mistake..

My guess is they would want to stay there and not come here...unless they planned a attack

I’m in Georgia and as a woman I feel safer already. Gee, thanks, Brian, you feckless cowardly China butt-kissing traitor.

Whatever happened to keeping Americans safe first?

And furthermore, there are so many places in the Middle East for these people who I dare say would be much more “at home” feeling than dropped into the interior of the US.

G-d, I HATE these people!

Assuming these “refugees” are vetted………what happens to the ones who don’t pass? Are they returned to Afghanistan.

As soon as they get off the plane, every piece of middle eastern scum should be chipped, tatooed with an ID, and gelded.
