Do you know how many Somalians we have who spend 4 months at a time in “Djbouti”, come back to collect their welfare checks, sell their foodstamps, re-establish residency and head right back to their $hit hole country?
It’s rampant with Bangladeshis, Indians, Sri Lankans, and folks from Central African countries.

Uncontrolled = no controllers for aircraft movement; however it really is uncontrolled now.

Well, the only reason you’re not STUNNED is because you evidently don’t read the news.

Don't have to, I see it first hand.

Don't rely on "the news", they tend to lie quite a bit, if you haven't noticed.

Oh!!! So they can’t come across our completely open southern border, huh???

You do see the difference between someone sneaking across the southern border and someone being ferried, fed, housed and given a sure fire path to LPR status all at the expense of the U.S. taxpayer?

It’s unconscionable that Congress is in recess while Marines are being slaughtered, and American citizens are being stranded in a city, and country that was deliberately turned over to the enemy.

You and I have very different definitions of what an American is.
You seem to think that anyone who holds an American passport is American, whereas I believe loyalty and love of country are also required. Gaining a passport under false pretenses does not make one American, any more than participating in voter fraud makes those votes legitimate.
Spending the vast majority of your time in the foreign country of birth you hail from, not holding a job in the U.S., not being fluent in English, not holding our values, and collecting welfare benefits, makes your loyalty highly questionable.

First, don’t dare to tell me what my patriotism means.

Second, what don’t you understand about AMERICAN citizens that are from Texas!?

Your comment: “...last thing we need is more taliban sneaking into the country...”

We supposedly quit “someone being ferried, fed, housed and given a sure fire path to LPR”...

What will Biden do about ANYONE sneaking across our southern border???

NOTHING........

...and how long until the first death of a US citizen left behind is reported?

If by "reported" you mean widely reported by the mainstream media, it may be some time. If by "reported" you mean "known to have occurred" I expect it will not be that long.

Neither of the lines in your response make any sense, but you think these folks are from Texas? I can assure you, they're not. If there's one Texas born American citizen in Kabul, they're infants or children who've spent the vast majority of their lives in Afghanistan.

I wouldn't risk ONE American life to rescue any or all of them.

You may hold a different opinion, but I wouldn't want to defend it.

We are LITERALLY doing that right now at both Dulles and Philadelphia International Airport. Look, maybe you don't believe anything in the news, but I've seen it first hand. It IS happening.

I don't know what to believe anymore. Really, I don't. There are so many conflicting reports about just about every event, both large and small, that's gone on there during the past few weeks.

There was something going around yesterday about some former SF guy who drove a few hundred people her supposedly rescued up to the gate and got turned away. But Tweets supposedly from mil guys on the ground said they were all Afghans, and only four of them had SIVs and even those looked sketchy. Were those Tweets fake? Was the whole story bullshit? Who the hell knows? So again, I don't know what's really going on there - the whole show's hyper-politicized and solid, verifiable facts are nearly impossible to come by at this point.

As time progresses we'll get a clearer picture. Until then, I'm out - I'm getting too pissed off about things that may or may not be true regarding this mess.

One thing I find highly suspect: With supposedly hundreds, if not a thousand, Americans abandoned in AFG, why have we not heard hundreds of specific pleas from them via FB, TikTok, Twitter and the like? Why aren't their parents, husbands, wives, friends and other relatives in the US wall-to-wall on both social media and TV begging for assistance? How is that possible? Decent mobile internet exists in all the major AFG cities, especially in the Kabul area.

The FAA may have posted a Notice To AirMen (NOTAM) that Harmid Karzai Airport is now an uncontrolled airport (without control tower operations), but it's not an airport anymore; it's a collection of buildings with large paved areas around them.

That is until the Communist Chinese move in.

Here’s a tip for you. Watch or listen to War Room daily to keep up with everything that’s going on. They have the best experts in all areas hands down.

I do not agree at all with bringing Afghans to America, FYI. I think they should be taken safely to other countries in the ME, their homelands, and live to fight another day to take back their country.

They do not belong in America and even the so called “vetted” ones often turn on our soldiers and kill them, called blue on green killings.

So we may agree on that but there are American citizens from America stranded behind enemy lines. You just have to know that is true.

If you don’t believe me, let’s not keep going back and forth. I know what the truth is about this fiasco.

FYI, I have seen and read many of those pleas, and heard reports from many people in the know. That is indeed happening.

Try following Lara Logan and get up to date. Also listen to or watch War Room and you’ll find out much more accurate info.

Very soon expect the Taliban to shut down the internet so nobody can make those pleas for help, It is likely too late anyway, they will be raped, tortured, beheaded and we will likely see a genocide. All brought to you by a demented old fool.

These statements I can certainly agree with. I think the idea that they'd one day return, is optimistic, but optimisim is crucial.

I do wonder why Pakistan and Iran don't welcome them... nah, they obviously know something many of us don't.

How long before Biden & others are prosecuted for dereliction of duty; failure to uphold oaths of office?
