The Taliban terrorists are telling President Disaster Biden that there is no extension [1] to the evacuation deadline of August 31st. That’s one week from now.
They are being meanies and are not even abiding by Biden’s PR date of September 11th, the date he chose to declare victory on as the greatest president on earth – the one who got us out of Afghanistan.
Suhail Shaheen, a member of the Taliban delegation in Doha, capital of Qatar, said, “If the U.S. or UK were to seek additional time to continue evacuations – the answer is no. Or there would be consequences.”
Consequences. And Biden seems to be accepting their edicts so far.
There’s no denying what’s going on now with the Taliban dictating the terms of the American withdrawal from Afghanistan.
For all intents and purposes, the Taliban is holding our Americans hostage in their country because they are impeding them getting to the airport safely, knowing that the Biden administration is not extracting anyone.
With such a totally incompetent presidential administration in charge of this FUBAR (AND the cause of it), I really don’t any way for our people to get out of Afghanistan safely in only seven days.
The Biden administration is glaringly incapable – and unwilling – to do what it takes to get the job done.
The virtual Embassy in Kabul still has a security alert [2] that says that Americans should stay away from the airport.
Has one journalist asked how Americans are supposed to get out of the country under these circumstances? Maybe the Biden administration is going to grab the Starship Enterprise and use the transporter?
The Biden administration doesn’t even know how many Americans are in Afghanistan or where they are. So how will they possibly get them out in a month let alone a week? And how will they even know if everyone is out?
If 10,000 Americans were in a room together with guns pointed to their heads, maybe the democrats would HAVE to do something because the optics of doing nothing would be enough to keep every one of them out of office for quite some time.
But instead, the democrats are betting on a few things to get them out of their PR disaster. And that’s really the only disaster they see – a PR disaster, not an American and humanitarian disaster.
First, they think that something else will come along to take their incredible Afghanistan FUBAR off the news – they are hoping for hurricanes, airplane crashes, a sex scandal and even stories about the border. ANYTHING is better than constant coverage of their Afghanistan disaster.
Sorry to tell them this though but a story about thousands of Americans being trapped in a middle eastern terrorist-run country isn’t going anywhere.
Secondly, they are hoping that we have a frog boiling in a pot story. Our trapped Americans won’t be killed all at once. No, they will be hunted down, they will starve, they will be running for their lives as the Taliban (and Al-Qaeda and ISIS) goes after them to torture them, kill them and take them as actual hostages to show to the world.
Because the terrorists in the middle east like a good PR message as much as the democrats do, I don’t think this second hope of the democrats will play out well because the Taliban and the other terrorists will relish in showing their American captives streaming online. It’ll give the monsters accolades and credibility in the terrorist world. So the atrocities of the Taliban against their American hostages will play out for months.
The incompetence of the Biden administration in Afghanistan and lack of willingness to save Americans is another symptom of their hatred of our country, our military and Americans in general. Since they’ve taken over the rule of our country, our safety, security, freedoms and prosperity has gone by the wayside.
(link other story here – the price of voting democrat – to the words “gone by the wayside”)
They’re getting exactly what they want – the destruction of America as a superpower.
Biden had said that if the Taliban attacks our personnel or disrupts our operation that the US. presence would be “swift and the response would be swift and forceful.”
What Taliban Joe really meant is that he will tell them to stop and if they don’t, he will tell them to stop again.
Biden has done nothing of any significance to guarantee the safety of our American citizens or Afghan allies in harm’s way and it doesn’t look like that is going to change anytime soon.
