The Biden administration has informed Americans stuck in Afghanistan amid President Joe Biden’s botched exit from the country that the U.S. government cannot ensure they will get out of the country safely.

As if seeing Afghans fall from airplanes, people hanged in Kabul and the city’s airport turned into a stampede hasn’t been distressing enough, the federal government on Tuesday told U.S. citizens in that country that they’re essentially on their own when facing Taliban terrorists.

“From Missionaries in Afghanistan’s: If you are an Afghan and you have a Bible you are murdered by the Taliban, if you tolerate Christians living next to you the Taliban will murder you, if you have a Western Phone Number in your phone ... the Taliban will murder you ....
But according to Former Vice President Joe Biden that is okay because he just sent them weapons and pallets of money.”

Up to 15,000 Americans remain in Afghanistan after Taliban takeover.
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/15-000-americans-remain-afghanistan-after-taliban-takeover-n1277033

U.S. officials said about 1,100 U.S. citizens, permanent residents and their families were evacuated on 13 flights Tuesday.

The precise number of Americans outside Kabul was not immediately clear but up to 15,000 may still be in Afghanistan, the Post reported. The Taliban has been on the offensive across the country for weeks. At a news briefing later Tuesday, Jake Sullivan, President Biden’s national security adviser, told reporters that the Taliban expressed a willingness to provide “safe passage of civilians to the airport,” the report said.

The U.S. is trying to process tens of thousands of visas to airlift roughly 15,000 civilians out of as the Taliban seizes control of the nation’s capital. CBS News’ Christina Ruffini joins CBSN’s Michael George with the latest.

What the hell were 15,000 Americans doing in Kabul/Afghanistan?

Were they all working for the CIA and the various private agencies/agents hired by the CIA or ???

What industries did Kabul and Afghanistan have to attract these people and pay them to live in
Kabul?

Did our tax $’s pay for these Americans to be there with their families?

If so, what benefit did we receive for our investments?

“To American Citizens,” the memo began. “Thank you for registering your request to be evacuated from Afghanistan. The U.S. embassy in Afghanistan has confirmed that an undefined number of U.S. government-provided flights will begin soon.

“Please make your way to Hamid Karzai International Airport at this time.”

In conclusion, it said, “PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THE UNITED STATES CANNOT GUARANTEE YOUR SECURITY AS YOU MAKE THIS TRIP.”

Is he still planning on sending 5,000 troops to get them out?

Talk about closing the barn door after the horses have escaped.

What good will 5,000 troops do? Except to anger and inflame the Taliban. Tensions and fighting will increase. More troops will be needed.

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

Biden is more preoccupied with bringing 300,000 Afghan refugees to America than he is with 15,000 Americans to America.

Biden should should send a note to ALL Americans that he cannot guarantee their safety nor freedom.

But that would require him to tell the truth, something he is not accustomed to practice.

It’s hard to take credibly estimates of “American citizens” in Afghanistan when the media and administration making those estimates no longer believes in the concept of “American citizen.” In fact, they are doing everything they can to abolish the concept of citizenship. All is diaspora. They are saying “American citizen” so that real, actual Americans will demand the U.S. get them to U.S. soil, but they will mostly be migrants (who may or may not have assisted the U.S. these past years) who just won the jackpot.

Translation of joe’s note: My agreement with the taliban forbids me from helping you Americans. Sorry, but I had to keep the facts about hunter secret, and to do that I had to promise to turn Afghanistan over to the taliban and let them kill women without burkas and Americans left behind. I know that Americans left behind will surely die because they will not be able to leave their homes, but I had to do it or they were going to tell all about what hunter really did. 9/11 is coming, and the taliban wanted this done by the 20th anniversary.

Also, I promised to bring a million Afghans to the USA. (I told you 30,000, but you of course know that was a lie.)

Allahu Akbar! -Joseph Robspieere Biden

IMHO, we are witnessing the fall of the CIA/Deep State Afganistan cash cow.

It instructs people to come to Hamid Karzai Intl Airport in Kabul, but says the US govt cannot guarantee their safety as they make the trip.

Looks like we are in the age when our government will take every opportunity to kill its citizens so long that it is not obvious that they are doing so.

Oh, and make sure you take your experimental vaccine and booster shots before we force you to do so, although we can not guarantee there safety. Thank you for your cooperation.

True, America last is Biden’s creed. And his 10 percent, of course. Maybe he’s getting paid to create this mess.

The US government can’t guarantee the safety of American children in Chicago’s South Side. Why would any sane person think it could — or even should — guarantee the safety of American adults in Kabul?

BTW, I’d wager more Americans were shot in Chicago last weekend than in Kabul.

They’d say “every man for himself”, but that would be presuming their gender.

And military suicides yet?
Of course not. The mission is to get as many Afghan refugees into this country and further Balkanize this country.
