“Any American who wants to come home, we will get you home.” -President Joe Biden, August 20, 2021
That’s been the talking point from a number of Biden administration officials over the past week as the situation in Afghanistan continued to deteriorate. If you’re an American who wants to leave Afghanistan, Biden will ensure your departure. This is a lie.
A close look at the language, combined with the official policy that the United States will be leaving the country on August 31 even as the airport in Kabul is blocked off by miles of Taliban checkpoints, gives away Biden’s strategy.
Americans can’t safely get to the airport and the administration knows it. They’ve had their passports confiscated and destroyed by the Taliban. They’ve been beaten in their attempt to follow instructions from the U.S. government.
When the mission to get Americans out of the country fails, Biden will blame the Americans for “not wanting to leave” or for not properly getting in touch with the State Department to file their paperwork. Keep in mind the Taliban has seized cell towers and shut off electricity in a number of areas, making it impossible to receive updated instructions from the U.S. government about how to proceed.
For days the State Department has told Americans to go to the airport, not to go to the airport, to go to the airport and yet, they are already being blamed for their demise.
“People chose not to leave. That’s their business,” Acting U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan Ross Wilson told CBS News in an interview this week.
Wilson of course ignores Biden’s own statements in July that a Taliban takeover of the country was unlikely.
“The likelihood there’s going to be the Taliban overrunning everything and owning the whole country is highly unlikely,” Biden said during a press conference on July 8.
This was a lie and Biden told it anyway while Americans stood in harms way.
In just a few short days, pointing fingers at stranded Americans will continue to be the cynical, despicable excuse for the administration’s decision to leave our fellow countrymen behind. It will be invoked after President Biden allowed the Taliban to overtake the country in record time, abandoning Americans behind enemy lines.
“We will continue to evacuate as many people as we can until the end of the mission,” Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said, indicating the mission is to leave on August 31, not to get Americans out.
I hope all those who voted for idiot Biden, all the dead, all those who had moved away, all those Dominion machines, all those copy machines are happy with their support for this utter and incompetent failure. 4 Marines dead. Dozens of Afghan people dead. US prestige destroyed. National security threatened. All because fraud put a known failure in the White House.
Honestly many Biden voters are clueless. Recently in a local newspaper a lady wrote in to complain the paper was not publishing enough stories praising Biden. There is no getting through to these people.
They apparently know they are being fed propaganda and want it to reinforce their flawed support for anything liberal. They take the entire nation, the security, the benefits, the wealth for granted and cannot see a scenario where they lose it.
It will be interesting how he gets the students from California on a field trip out alive.What wacko parent would think that was a good idea. If they want them exposed to that culture simply send them to michigan or minnesota.
