Shall we brace ourselves to see dead Americans dragged through the streets again?
Be sure to have some helicopters on stand by so they can land on the roof at the very end!
Shades of Tehran 1978.
If only this information were on Hillary’s personal servers. They would be perfectly safe there.
Go back and look at the videos of Saigon when we left, people begging to leave only to be left behind as we abandoned them...
The Taliban is going to rightfully claim victory and seek to kill everyone who talked to US Forces, it will be a blood bath for those left behind....
Thanks again Joe.
They have to be told??
Our military in chaos. Brought to you by a stolen election. Darth Vader is sure running things like an idiot - too bad Darth Vader targets US and US military instead of our true enemies.
About 10 days late for that.
I don’t think even this admin would be dumb enough to allow that. And unlike the clown in the White House on Sept 11, 2012, they can’t blame anything on violating airspace and needing permission from anyone.
Yes...Left is hyping this for a reason, need bad guys
How Benghazi....
I well remember Saigon . . .
Any country that believes they can trust America to bail them out are nuts, but then; we really don’t belong being the policemen of the world. This is one of the reasons our country is in the mess it is right now - we are too busy policing the world, and not our own cities.
“...Thanks again Joe...”
The useless, communist POS was complicit in Saigon.
The useless, communist POS is complicit in Kabul.
History repeats itself with no lessons learned.
Useless communist POSs should never be allowed in govt..
The government and the Media have been working together to deceive us.
When they contradict each other, which one is more likely to have some truth in it?
“The embassy will be evacuated and a very small consular staff will work in Kabul, the memo noted.”
For what reason?!
Under normal circumstances, I could see maintaining a small presence there - but these are not normal circumstances.
Does that State Dept think that a small consular presence will be any less of an irritant to the Taliban than a full embassy presence would?
I understand that by keeping a small consular presence it shelters us from the “cut and run” accusation but it endangers the remaining US personnel there.
Lastly, how effective would a small consular presence be? It’s not like they’re going to be overwhelmed with work or expected to attend diplomatic functions or attended events sponsored by the Kabul Lions Club.
The 3,000 troops will mostly arrive on Sunday. You would think the Taliban would move on the embassy and airport.
kinda surprised they don’t send hillary clinton over there to wipe everything clean...
