[[Has the US taken any steps, talk or action, to stop or discourage private rescue efforts? If so, why?]]
Sont know al. The specifics, but It has been reported yesterday that a bus load of folks both Afghanis and Americans, who were driven by a private group, made it to the compound area where they were safe, and some commander ordered them all back out into the streets (and he likely punished whoever let them in). The people in the bus are no doubt dead now
[[Is the US aware of any US citizen being turned away at the airport?]]
Several reports here on fr yesterday stating that Americans are being turned away at the gates. And several people,who have been over there are reporting the same thing. They have witnessed it first hand apparently. Several government peeps have both been there and or heard from soldiers or whatever. The state department is lying to everyone.
Mr “um, ah, um, I am not answering that” state spokespersowho give the ‘press conferences” is just making crap up when asked questions now.
How about proof, rather than rumor? Those speculative reports and rumors are why I actually wrote my vanity post in the first place.
