American mom trapped by Taliban describes horrific violence, pleads for Biden to solve evacuation crisis
Fox News ^ | 8/21/2021 | Michael Ruiz , Sara Ballou

An American mom trapped in Taliban-controlled Afghanistan is worried she'll never see her kids again and in hiding with family members and Afghan allies – unable to reach Kabul's U.S.-held airport for a chance at an evacuation, she said Saturday.

"I really have given up hope, given up on the hope of going to the airport," the woman, whose identity is being withheld due to concerns for her safety, told Fox News. "It’s just not possible to make it through all those people."

She said there are as many as 20 Taliban checkpoints between her and the airport – and she’s one of an uncertain number of American citizens trapped behind enemy lines.

Every moment that a car passes by, I feel like they are going to pull in and execute us. I don't know if I'm going to see my children again.

She was whipped by Taliban fighters on one attempt to get through, she said. A man standing near her was shot in the head on another try, leaving his wife and baby in tears. Since then, she's been in hiding.

TALIBAN GOING ‘HOUSE TO HOUSE’ IN AFGHANISTAN ‘HANGING’ PEOPLE WHO WORKED WITH US

"We are devastated," she said. "We're scared for our lives. Every moment that a car passes by, I feel like they are going to pull in and execute us. I don't know if I'm going to see my children again."

She said the situation was dire – even hopeless. She would rather commit suicide than allow the Taliban to capture her. And despite Taliban assurances to the U.S. that Americans would be allowed to pass through the checkpoints surrounding the airport, she said she fears showing her U.S. passport to militants who could be members of other terror groups, including ISIS and al Qaeda.

“Biden voters did this.”

They did. And “Biden voters” includes those who planned and executed all the massive fraud, MSM, traitorous GOP elite and swamp creatures, GOP pols who voted to certify the election and for impeachment. Blood is on the hands of every one of them.

Go ahead; send the text — assuming they’re able to receive texts. I’d do it in a heartbeat.

When these things happen, my keyboard is hot with emails going to our TN senators who voted to certify the stolen election.

Two rounds would be better. One for the first Taliban soldier who came through my front door and one for me.

Who would be served by killing 1000s of American civilians? Put the right and wrong and emotions aside if you want to see the truth. China is in charge and the world needs to see for itself. We can do nothing to stop it because this is what china wants.

The only people getting through to the airport were approved for travel by the Taliban.

Please read this.

“I’ve Worked with Refugees for Decades. Europe’s Afghan Crime Wave Is Mind-Boggling.

Afghans stand out among the refugees committing crimes in Austria and elsewhere. Why?”

> by Cheryl Benard, July 2017

https://nationalinterest.org/feature/ive-worked-refugees-decades-europes-afghan-crime-wave-mind-21506

Please read, share and save this article for when the coming inevitable Afghan “refugee” sex crime aggravated rape wave hits the USA.

Compared to even other moslem “refugees,” Afghan males are like mad dogs around Western women, they’ll brutally attack and rape any female from age five to 85, anytime they get the chance.

You have been warned.

I asked yesterday...

At what point are the orders illegal?

We are watching a genocide of our citizens, allies, and Christians unfold.

Forgive, as it sets your soul free. But never forget as to do so a person becomes stupid and vulnerable to experience it again

Don’t get angry for a snake biting you as it’s what snakes do. But take precautions not to get bitten again, no to fear snakes.

To hold fear or anger. We are swallowing the poison we wish our enemies to drink.

OTOH, folks in Kabul had a few weeks to read the writing on the wall

Perhaps they were naive enough to believe that things would be stable until the end of the year.

the woman, whose identity is being withheld due to concerns for her safety,

Good idea.
She'd be in danger for criticizing president sniffles and sent off to the gulags with the January 6th crowd.

Biden should be tried for treason.

This is clearly a directive straight from China. China owns Joe.

By golly, RF, you've done it! You've come up with a sure-fire idea of how to get all of the Americans out of Afghanistan!

If they all go online and criticize the Biden Regime, the FBI will HAVE to send teams over there to arrest them and bring them back to the American Gulags for their show-trials!

Well, at least it gets them out of Afghanistan ...
