The Biden Admin is disaster prone, and worse they refuse to fix the issues they create. So now we have border crisis that they refuse to do anything about, and around 100 Americans are still stranded in Afghanistan. So these Americans are at the mercy of the Taliban, who have been showing us regularly how little of that they have. But the Pentagon must not be seeing these atrocities, because when the Taliban threatened us not to do flyovers, the Pentagon told them, basically, we do what we want…
“The Taliban on Wednesday warned the U.S. against flying drones over its “sacred airspace” or there could be “negative consequences.”
“We recently saw [the] United States violating all international rights, laws and … commitments made to the [Taliban] in Doha, Qatar, as Afghanistan’s sacred airspace is being invaded by U.S. drones,” a spokesperson said on Twitter.
“We call on all countries, especially [the] United States, to treat Afghanistan in light of international rights, laws, and commitments … in order to prevent any negative consequences.”
The Pentagon did not reply to the Taliban warnings and instead directed Fox News to comments made by press secretary John Kirby, who said the U.S. retains “all necessary authorities to execute over-the-horizon counterterrorism operations.”
“We remain confident in these capabilities moving forward,” he told reporters Friday. “Without speaking to specific rules of engagement surrounding airstrikes, there is currently no requirement to clear airspace with the Taliban. And we do not expect that any future over-the-horizon counterterrorism strikes would hinge on such a clearance.”
But we still have, as of mid-September, about 100 Americans stranded over there…
“So as of the end of last week, we had about 100 hundred American citizens in Afghanistan who told us that they wish to leave the country. And I want to emphasize that this is a snapshot in time. It’s more accurately a moving picture, as you know, stepping back for a minute to know precisely at any given moment of time exactly how many American citizens are in any country,” Blinken told the House Foreign Affairs Committee.”
Usually I would be all for this type of response, but we have about 100 hostages just waiting to be used against us and the Biden Admin put us in this position, essentially giving the Taliban power by leaving Americans behind. But I guess the Biden Admin is proving once again that those Americans are just SOL.
