Dozens of California students and parents are stranded in Afghanistan after taking a summer trip to the country.

More than 20 students and 16 parents from the Cajon Valley Union School District in El Cajon, Calif., visited Afghanistan on summer vacation. Now they are among thousands of people who are waiting to leave the country amid the chaotic U.S. withdrawal that has caused political unrest across the nation, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Cajon Valley Superintendent David Miyashiro alerted school board members on Tuesday that he would be meeting with Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) to discuss the situation, the Times noted.

Fake Americans? What native-born American raised in the US would think it good to go to Afghanistan for vacation. Bet these are all foreign-born or anchor babies, all with dual citizenship or parents with green cards or illegally in the US. They chose to go, their problem. I am more concerned with Americans and American workers that are over there. Even those that have worked for the US over the past 20 years. They are traitors to Afghanistan and need help leaving—not to the US, please—but maybe to some other haven.

It was the duty of the State Department to refuse visas to this group. The country has experienced much crime and terrorism, and has not been a friendly place for tourism. If students are there it is because of an incompetent Department of State.
