Are they real Americans? Like know who chopped down the cherry tree and say thank you for a slice of Christmas ham Americans?
Or are these anchor babies and green card “refugees” who spend half the year in the old country because the welfare done good so far and they enjoy the place?

I want names and photos and stories before I care.

Your secondary source provides much more info than the thread Tweet source. I paused after noting Chuck Callestro is a self-described talent scout and booking promoter.

That was predicted here at FreeRepublic. The media had swept all talk about Afghanistan under a huge rug and baptized the operation a success. They will ignore this until they no longer can, then they will minimize it.

Doesn’t anyone remember Dawson Field from 6 September 1970?

Islam is all about historical dates.

No, they are holding Afghans and people who are fellow Afghan moslems operating under the flag of convenience of the name “American”.
These aren’t Dick and Jane and their little dog spot sitting on those airliners.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
