More muslims! Don’t expect me to get excited about that! How many lessons have to be learned? More muslims who want to cut off the head of the “infidel”. YEAH! That’s really going to make things better. The people in charge now are SO stupid! ( I apologize to FR, I used an F-bomb, but fortunately edited it out before posting. I am trying VERY HARD to regulate my language. BUT, considering my life experiences, sometimes it becomes difficult to near impossible. If I stray... momentarily... PLEASE forgive me!

When I lived in DC/Arlington area...my apartment complex was owned by a Afghan family that had left (with some wealth) in the 1980s.

There are good and bad among all kinds of people.

But with the Biden crew in charge, they will likely fish for the worst to bring over, while opening the floodgates to the rest.

Yeah, right? I'm so bloody sick and tired of seeing this nation turned into an unassimlated boarding house for every jabbering mutt from The Third World.

Afghan translators should be welcomed here for protecting and assisting our troops. I would easily welcome them over any in the BLm and antifah trash!

1. Five to 10% of them will be embedded jihadists, or Russian, Iranian or Chinese sleeper agents.

2. The sons of the fully Westernized A-stan refugees will grow up to hate their fathers as sellouts, and many will revert and become islamist jihadists in 20 years.

The two above facts are as predictable as tomorrow’s sunrise.

The main problem with the second generation, is the mosques and (US Public) schools, that agitate them against America.

Behind every kid turned jihadi, is a radical mosque, with terrorist recruiters. In most Muslim Countries, they know to monitor mosques with secret police, and shut down politically hostile preachers.

I don’t think that the percentage of Afghan-American kids who go bad is very high, based on my experience with them. The Afghans really value education, and family life is strong. There is an underclass that likes to ride on welfare, but they don’t seem to be as big of a slice, as say, Mexicans or Somalis

“ Say here’s an idea: FIGHT THEM”

It looks like Civil War may be back on.

Pakistan supports the Taliban, and that puts a lot of resources and combat power behind them. Pakistan is a lot bigger than Afghanistan, in population, Militarily and economically.

The various Militias will likely be arming up, but without big foreign State sponsors, the Taliban/Pakistan/China team will eventually take over.

The Russians could give them a run for their money. India probably should, but they don’t seem to project much power outside their Country.

What are the odds of the Taliban generating Osma #2 bringing us back for the same operations in 5 or 10 years?

“What are the odds of the Taliban generating Osma #2 bringing us back for the same operations in 5 or 10 years?”

Probably close to even money...

The “trouble” is the sorting process... “Good” from the “bad”. That’s how scum like the tsarnayev brothers got in here.
