Secretary of State Antony Blinken appeared on Face the Nation on Sunday to discuss Biden’s botched Afghanistan withdrawal.
Blinken was pressed on the Biden Admin’s efforts to extricate Americans stuck in Afghanistan behind enemy lines.

Thousands of Americans are stranded in Afghanistan in a potential hostage situation as terrorist factions block roads to Kabul airport with checkpoints.
Americans are reportedly being beaten and harassed by Taliban terrorists.
.... Snip....
Meanwhile French, British and German special forces are rescuing their countrymen.
Secretary Blinken on Sunday said “the best way to do this” is to leave Americans to get to the airport on their own.

"This was expected."
"Trump's plan tied our hands."
"The Taliban has promised safe passage of Americans to the airport."
"This wouldn't have happened if all Americans had gotten vaccinated." Okay, that one I added. :)
Bonne chance, idiot.
As another on this thread said, what if some are pro-Taliban types who are on their side against us?
Anyone who thinks this current administration is competent must be a complete moron.
This little punk Blinken needs a punch in the mouth. They all do.
If something that big were to happen, the entire media would have to cover it. Heck, CNN, NYT, and another are already condemning Biden for this debacle. Even Bill Maher is going ballistic over Biden's malfeasance, amongst other Lib celebrities.
Even if your scenario didn't happen, this is already being recorded as the worse foreign policy disaster in USA history. Biden and others will always own this, no matter how they spin it's Trump's fault. And yes, there will be torture and killings, just maybe not as large as your scenario.
The Lib/soc/commies say hate is a bad thing and always try to pin crimes as hate crimes. Guess what? Hate is a legitimate emotion but can eat a person's soul. In this case, I don't hate Biden and Co. (handlers)...I DESPISE THEM AND HOPE THEY DIE A BAD DEATH. I don't believe in Hell, so that's the worse I can wish for them.
We all die, but I wish for a painless death while asleep for good people. End rant.
Amazing. The link goes to a still from the Meet the Press interview, so I’m hoping this is just selective quoting and he explained it some other way...such as, they should get to the airport themselves with the support of Special Forces and not as a large stampede, etc.
And if he just said, well, toughskis, it’s up to them, he should be fired immediately. Actually, he, Milley and the entire top rank of commanders and security agency heads should be fired. But they won’t be.
The Bidet cabinet needs to volunteer to be airdropped somewhere over Kabul so they can walk the Taliban gauntlet to the airport.
maybe we should drop junior on the ground over there and tell him to get to the airport on his own....

Not one of those 800 Afghans we flew to safety brought an American with them to the airport to help them escape.
Most of them not only did NOT bring an American - they were unvetted.
And they left their wives and children and flew to safety and the US gravy train without them.
Who are they? Jihadists? Taligban? Al Quaeda?

This may very well become the modern day equivalent of the
Cawnpore Massacre of 1857. Some horrific stuff, that.
So basically he’s saying,”Good luck suckers”.
Man, he makes Lurch look like a better SecState. Tied with the Benghazi Bitch from Chappequa for worst.
The flipside to this apparent debacle is our operators have been quietly sneaking around Kabul picking up US persons and taking them to safety. If Biden presents that as a fait accompli, we’ll look pretty silly.
I’m not sure what the odds are for that scenario, but don’t discount it entirely.
Odds are zero.
If they were son’s of Dem senators, Seal Team 6 would already be back home with them
