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.

You knew President Trump negotiated a peace accord February 2020.
The accord contains a conditions based troop withdrawal over 14 months.
Yet, you stayed
Well they are the neighbors of the Pakistanis(asians) who have groomed and raped 10s of thousands of wayward white girls in the UK.
Sadly, help ain’t comin.
Got a rifle?
Give ‘em hell, and Save the last bullet.
Or a grenade: you might take one or two with you.
Get a durka burka and slither with the crowds of locals from one market to the next.
Be the grey woman.
How kind. I’m sure it was a great comfort to her and made her want to turn to the Christian faith and see things your way. I’m sure Jesus would have done the same
That is a terrible idea.
He’d probably be hung for that.
Led by top rank in theater.
Mark “Oz” Geist, Benghazi survivor, was interviewed on Bannon’s War Room the other day .... he said don’t be surprised if there are some ‘mass’ suicides. People would rather die by their own hand than be tortured for days by the Taliban.
I have to ask myself, why would these ‘citizens’ of the U.S.A. be living in Afghanistan? Death Wish?
Like I said, I wanted to say it to her, but didn’t.
Suffering is a tool of God to teach people to seek a better path. I do not view suffering as punishment, but a learning experience, the outcome which I desire is for them to turn to God.
If I pray for a person and the Holy Spirit causes them great discomfort, it is not to punish them, but to motivate them to change. It is the Love from God that creates discomfort for those who hold onto sin.
It is not a judgement, but a reality. If you drown from trying to breathe under water, that is not a judgement of you, even though it reflects where you are at in your learning experiences. Darwin Awards are real.
“That is a terrible idea.”
I know, but a girl can dream, can’t she? They’ve taken our liberty, but they can’t take our dreams.
I understand your point, but in a stolen election it hardly matters who anyone voted for.
“in a stolen election it hardly matters who anyone voted for.”
It matters — bigly. Those who voted against Trump and who now are suffering because of it ... good. I am sorry for everyone else.
Agree
I’m glad you did not send it I missed that part. Yes god uses suffering to speak to us but it is not our job to gloat over someone’s suffering or rub it in. I see way too much of that. As the world descends deeper into darkness too many christians forget that fellow Christians are your Blood bought brother or sister in Christ. Whether vaccinated or not. Whether a believer in ivermectin or not. Whether a conservative or not. This is the time the burch should shine brighter abs instead I see the same divisions pettiness and meanness going on in society at large mirrored in our interactions, some by people who display the name of Christ the loudest. I am guilty as are all of us. I resolve to do better and apologize to all of brothers and sisters I have replied to ina way not fitting to their status as brother or sister of mine
Family members yes, neighbors, yes, the dude who smashed my car up maybe.
Evil corrupt pieces of fkn s*** who ruin lives, traitors, our enemies and Muzloid apes.... no.
What sets us free is ending or killing them.
Watching them profusely leak body fluids is freeing.
Joe's whole career has been about extortion, bribery, graft and taking money under the table on official US government deals--10% for the old man. Most recently publicized cases are his brother's construction contract in Iraq and his son Hunter in China and the Ukraine business deals. He's accomplished nothing else but getting himself and his family wealthy while in office.
Somewhere in this historical failure of leadership in withdrawing the US from Afghanistan, is a pot of gold for Biden.
Wonder if this woman was also given a voice on CNN? NBC? ABC? CBS?
