“It doesn’t matter what any American citizen looks like. When it comes to protecting our fellow United States citizens the government should not be considering what their original ethnicity or national origin is.”

True enough. But it has been longstanding principle that US consular services may be limited or unavailable to US citizens residing or traveling in their other country of citizenship. It has to be this way because otherwise in granting citizenship to people who may or may not return to their country of origin, the US would be assuming responsibility for the domestic policies of each of these other countries.

Further, when we hear about any American stranded in Afghanistan, I personally would like to also hear what they were doing there and why they did not leave earlier.

Biden blindsided everyone with his collosal screw-up of retreat and surrender. They likely felt sure Biden sou,d not abandon them there, and that everyone cou,d get out without issues before the withdrawal. unfortunately they ,earned the hard way that Biden doesn’t give two kangaroo poos about them

Good points. With respect to "why they did not leave earlier" I suspect they may have actually believed Joe Biden's and the media's propaganda.

Anyone who watched Joe Biden and his foolish defense department leadership's actions would have known to run for the exits months ago.
