At a congressional hearing on Monday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken admitted that thousands of legal permanent residents of the United States were left in Afghanistan:
“This is a national humiliation,” Nebraska GOP senator Ben Sasse says in a statement responding to Blinken. “Let’s be very clear about this: These men and women are legal permanent residents of the United States. When America gives someone a green card, it’s a promise that their permanent home is here in the United States with us. President Biden abandoned thousands of these American residents behind Taliban lines to fend for themselves. He has a duty to bring every single American citizen and green card holder home. No more happy talk about the blood-thirsty Taliban — get our people home.”
The USSD had been offering exit for these people since May, but they didn’t want to leave, thinking that the government and security forces built by the US over 20 years would continue on. It’s not America’s fault that the government fled and without their support and funding the military dissolved….
The Taliban is going to control Afghanistan, not Russia, not the UK, not the US….
It’s our fault there wasn’t a military operation to get them out of Afghanistan. So much for their faith and trust in the U.S. Quid Pro Joe ,the Great Commander- Chief and military strategist.
It’s the administrations fault as they called for a retreat without making sure American citizens were evacuated abandoning billion of unused military hardware to ensure they won’t get out easily.
Yet another leftist anarchist making excuses for a failed President and administration.
Nope, Biden’s done nothing wrong in A-Stan, Americans want out. Let the chips fall where they may. The same circumstances would exist no matter when the US left, whether 10 years ago or 10 years from now…
Biden’s no military strategist, and never claimed to be. It was Trump, that fool who knew nothing about anything. His expertise being the art of bankruptcy and womanizing who claimed to know more than his generals….
