Ironic that this 9/11 will also feature planes.

Seems likely that this will turn into Carter with elements of Kerry/Obama. It seems rational that the way to head that off is to start prosecuting the people who screwed this withdrawal up so badly, starting with the Pentagon. Otherwise, they are likely to wring their hands and give in to a LONG list of demands from the Taliban just like they have been giving into every whim of the Lefties.

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.

Build up for Saturday?

It wouldn't surprise me if they held a mass public execution of the hostages......

Execute half and hold the remaining for ransom......

Executions taking place? Gezuz, I heard this nearly a week ago.

Btw, Rep. McCaul seems a bit slow and can’t seem to speak without looking down at his notes every few seconds.

“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.
