Dear Friends and Colleagues,
I am getting reports from Afghans on the ground that 5,000 Taliban fighters are in Logar waiting for the order to march into Kabul. There are another few thousand in Surobi, less than 50 miles from Kabul. I cannot verify this information but it is clear that at this stage Kabul will more likely fall in days or at best a few weeks. There are many women activists, journalists, and human rights defenders at high risk. They are high on Taliban kill lists.
There is an assumption that the Taliban are going to be humane because we have been talking to the 15 negotiators in Doha. But the Taliban on the ground have been targeting and killing women, journalists, judges, and civil servants in provinces where security forces and people have peacefully surrendered, and there are daily reports of atrocities taking place. We must judge the Taliban by their actions rather than our own illusions of their rehabilitation.
There are hundreds if not thousands of people in Kabul who have been openly criticizing and advocating against the Taliban for years. They are at risk of being massacred. …
… I don't wish to over-dramatize matters, but the signs point to a Srebrenica or Rwanda moment.
Will we do the right thing this time?
I am appealing to you to act on your conscience and use your position and voice to hold the administration accountable for preventing atrocities in Afghanistan and to make the case to the public about what is at risk.
America is at its best when it acts from a place of principle and moral courage. As an Afghan once said to me, "Without principles, America is just another country."
Best,
Rina Amiri

Democrats killed South Vietnam. They will kill Afghanistan also.
Yes President Elect Trump we miss you.
Rina,
You are a libtard and your demented acting president is a libtard.
Embrace the suck.
“Islamacists don’t do permanent deals”.
Tell them that you will take away all their camels and goats.
They will make a deal...
Carpet bomb the bastards!
Srebrenica was a lie fabricated to “prove” that Serbs were committing genocide so they could be bombed.
Yugoslavia was a real country, thriving and healthy.
Breaking it up and giving Kosovo to the KLA thugs created a huge drug trafficking issue in Europe.
Additionally the leader of Kosovo, Bill Clinton’s best buddy is now in jail for organ trafficking on the black market.
He and his friends were removing kidneys from Serb PoWs and selling them for pocket cash.
Birds of a feather...
Thanks for posting this. I hope things go better than they appear to be going.
Yes, President Trump, we miss you!!!
Just like the poor Syrian boy who washed up by cameras, brought in rapefugees under a republican prez.
The plo playbook for manipulating the worlds idiot by feeling.
“ Democrats killed South Vietnam. They will kill Afghanistan also.”
***********************************************************
True dat about the DemocRATS and South Vietnam. Afghanistan? No, they’re killing themselves by largely refusing to fight. We need to simply wash our hands of them.
Joey Xi has no conscience. Therefore the note is useless....
The opportunity to eliminate that many muzzards should not be passed up.
Serbia was a real country. Yugoslavia was a fragile ethnic hodgepodge of various peoples living together because they were South Slav ethnic groups.
