I'm hopelessly stuck in Kabul with my wife and child.
Like myself, hundreds of other journalists are also stuck here.
I have an 11—months old daughter.
Please pray for her safety.

Suspicious.
Dear JESUS, please keep Enlightened1 and his family safe and sound. Send your holy angels with their fiery swords to protect them. Create a hedge of protection around Enlightened1 and his family and around our countrymen still waiting for your deliverance in this ancient land. Deliver them from their enemies and those that would harm your children. You are Our Refuge, Mighty Fortress and Strength. Keep our families safe in Your Everlasting Arms.
Psalm 46:1, 7, 10-11
1 God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
7 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”
11 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.
Psalm 34, 37, 46, 70, 77, 86, 91, 121
My wife and I are and will be praying for you and our countrymen.
The Eternal, Creator, Most High God of Israel be with you and manifest His Favor over you In JESUS’ Name!!!!🙏🙏🙏
Thank you for the prayer, but I think you meant it for the guy on Twitter that posted he and his family were in trouble.
The good news is that people around the world are following him, and lots of prayers are going towards him and his family’s way.
Not sure if you’re being serious or sarcastic.
But it isn’t a far fetched idea.
DHS, with a few keystrokes, just told the world that I’m a potential terrorist because I think the election was stolen, I’m convinced that Fauci-Gates-and the rest are evil, corrupt and incompetent bastards, I will not get the shot, I like my guns, I don’t believe in the Lefts climate change hysteria, etc etc etc.
So finding someplace else to live, given that the 5,000,000 illegal aliens that will come into this country, will never leave and will turn into about 10,000,000 within 6-9 months.
AMEN, Thank you for the clarification. Read intro to what was happening and started to pray. Most importantly, God Most High Our Father knows. Blessings to you and all sincere folks on this forum and open the eyes of those still in darkness.
People with various foreign services some of whom are stuck there
My son is on the horn with an English friend in precisely that pickle in Kabul
There is a world outside America and yes people with kids or expecting go there
A world I’m familiar with
What do you gain from scorning folks in harms way simply because they aren’t as cautious as most Freepers are
Same here when I see sky divers or mountain climbers deaths scorned
It costs u not one gram of ectoplasm to say hey I hope they get out ok
Remember most westerners were assured Kabul would hold till after Christmas
1000s including our allies are now stuck ar taliban mercy
I do hear you; I do hope they get out okay.
But there is also something that humor columnist Dave Barry called “the common sense that God gave gravel.”
“I show as much empathy towards journalists as journalists show towards me.”
.
Or towards the 600 political prisoners rotting in DC jails.
Bingo.

Exactly! Exactly!!
I think the US and FDR refusing to let Americans leave the PI in the Fall of 1940 was exactly the same. FDR learned from the Pygmy and his ideas (the Pygmy’s ideas) have ridden the waves easily to this date....I just wonder when we will be seeing and saying the same things when Washington and every state’s capitals are attacked....and “suddenly” we are overrun with Chinese military.
Indeed, can’t you hear it now? A cacophony of delighted signs and yearnings are obvious because far too,too many people are riding on ChiComJoe’s band wagon. I will never ride that wagon but I find far too few people will ride alone with me.
That certainly fits me. I wouldn't be a combat jouralist. But I can understand the mindset of those who are. But who would drag their spouse and infant into such and environment?
Of course, I feel somewhat the same way about missionaries. I corresponded with one, and it was always his wife or one of his young kids with malaria or something worse. Another had a daughter with river blindness.
Take the risks you want, but don't drag down innocents.
LOL
Had a govt jobs surveyor show up in my yard yesterday and wanted employment info, said it would be generic with no names, etc. I said no. He said he would come back month after month and ask. I said you speak English, do you not understand the word "no"? I walked inside. My wife tried to be more understanding and said that is it all public data. I said fine, they can go get it.
She knew I was prior military and said you used to work for the government, don't you trust them? I said, yes I used to work for the government and they is why I do not trust them.
