Press spokes person keeps saying we have flown out almost 60,00 out of Kabul. How many of these people have been Americans or those Afgans that have helped us?

No one ever seems to ask that question.

We have found out that only 4,000 of those flown out are Americans.

Not a very large percentage have been Americans, from what I gather. It would be interesting to hear the exact number.

I'm not sure if they are hiding the number of Americans left over there or are just totally inept. I would think that there must be some record of in-country ex-pats. Surely the companies hiring them must have payroll records, or visas or a list for insurance if they get killed, or something. Generally you get paid a premium for the number of days in-country, so there must be some pretty tight travel records. I just can't imagine that you go in & out without any record or without being on some list.
