Are Taliban planning to massacre Americans? -- The Taliban know their history well and they want to make the Americans pay for the last 20 years of warfare

It has been some time since the United States suffered a truly humiliating massacre of its people. Not since Colonel George Custer led his troops up the wrong hill at the Battle of the Little Bighorn on June 26, 1876, have the American people been made to contend with the wholesale massacre of their forces or citizens.

Sadly, very soon it is possible that everyone will have to be prepared for such a horrible outcome in Kabul, Afghanistan. After all, there is a reason that the Taliban raced to Kabul as quickly as they did and why they’ve fought so hard to take control of the streets of the besieged Afghan capital.

Sure, the Taliban want control of the capital to ensure their victory over the Americans. But they also want to let the Yanks know who beat them. What’s more, the Taliban might be preparing for the classic Kabul farewell to fleeing foreign invaders: a rotten grin combined with a stab in the back (both in the metaphorical and the literal sense).

The Taliban have taken control of almost every point of egress in Kabul between the four major locations where thousands of Americans have sheltered in place and the airport.

And with several thousand US troops being rushed into Hamid Karzai International Airport, with no reliable way to link their position with those of the Americans in the ancient Afghan capital beyond, all while President Joe Biden’s administration appears oblivious to the fact that the Taliban are closing in upon the Americans in Kabul, the situation is ripe for a massacre.

Being protected by China pretty much ensures no response can be given, regardless of what they do.

“The Biden administration must surge many more troops to take Kabul and hold it until all Americans and their allies can get to safety. Otherwise, Americans may wake up to another Little Bighorn in Afghanistan. Our very own Massacre of Elphinstone’s Army.

Time is not on America’s side and President Biden and his team appear completely ambivalent to the facts on the ground. God help those souls who will suffer thanks to Biden’s shortsightedness and indifference.”

Have you seen the American political and military leadership?

There would be no response even if China weren’t involved. After all, the real enemies are white racism and climate change.

It wasn’t short sightedness or indifference.
IT WAS PLANNED!

I think we have had wholesale massacre of our citizens and soldiers many times since 1876. Or did the writer forget about Pearl Harbor, 9/11, McVey bombing, to name just a few?

It is OK as long as they are vaccinated and wear a mask.

It’s pathetic. All our leadership were given equality positions to make liberals feel better.

I hope there is no massacre. If there is, someone must pay dearly.

Block the airport and massacre the US troops and civilians. I don’t see Biden/Harris having the intelligence how to respond and save them. It would be a statement that would be a feather in the Taliban’s cap. If it were to happen the MSM and liberals would circle the wagons and protect the Democrats in the media. I fear with each passing moment this is a possibility to a become a reality.

Without the secure ,fortified US Air Force Base at Barham, which was unbelievably abandoned in the middle of the night, the 6,000 American troops deployed by Biden at the last minute themselves have no secure portal to withdraw from Afghanistan. They are at the tender mercies and whims of the Taliban who control Kabul and the airport.The pundits claim the Taliban would have to be crazy to attack those troops but they overlook the fact that the Taliban believe that if they die in battle , great rewards await them.also sure many of those taliban soldiers lost fathers, brothers,uncles, cousins and friends over the years and are itching for one last fight. Wonder how many hand held ground to air missiles they have in their inventory.
