I have a nagging question. Why were American & Allies civilians there in the first place?  .. and even with their kids ffs?



It was never very safe anywhere in the country at any time


They were visiting their relatives... Spending the holidays.





Even though they got the papers on the grounds that Afghanistans air is thick with lead.

[Unlike the Americans who are doing zero to fetch their people, Brits are conducting many military missions to rescue their own .. mainly SAS ops]



https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/us-general-tells-british-special-forces-stop-rescuing-people-in-kabul-youre-making-us-look-bad">US general tells British special forces: Stop rescuing people in Kabul, you're making us look bad



Maj. Gen. Christopher Donahue has told his British Army counterpart, a high-ranking field-grade officer of the British army's 22nd Special Air Service Regiment, that British operations were embarrassing the United States military in the absence of similar U.S. military operations.



 I understand that the British officer firmly rejected the request.



[I'm guessin the Brit's words were much more graphic than those stated gently above  :wink: ]

1. Its Pashtun members (the majority and driver of Taliban) surrendered to the Taliban who are fellow Pashtuns.



2. Hazaras (minority Shiites) fled to Iran and took our equipment with them for the benefit of Hezbollah, the Houthis, and any other Shiite terrorists.



3. The Uzbeks fled to Uzbekistan.



There is no Afghanistan. It's a collection of tribes whose members are loyal ONLY to their own."

Now Pashtun tribe 100% run the country just as they did before 2001 after evolving from the Pashtun Mujahedeen



Taliban consists 100% of Pashtun tribe



It is totally a tribal land .. the word "country" not really applying at all.

Many definitely are beautifully featured



Sadly, as they get a bit older,  males will be hidden from view with unruly supposedly  macho beards and loose body cover ....  .. females body / hair / face covered in usually black apparel



It is unlikely ever to change as there is no challengers in the cards to the Talis



So sad to see what could be a great people pushed / dragged back into the dark ages

At least 6 countries have special forces going to their stranded people, getting them and taking them to the airport .. UK, Germany  & India among them .. albeit at great risk

Some have had to fight their way out of difficult siotuations



While Biden orders "NO" .. like wtf has the US under him become? Jello?

I noticed that about older Pashtuns.

Finland sent a company of special jägers to Kabul airfield.





Seen as how these people were warned to leave Afghanistan many weeks ago.





And they are Afghans, not Finns.
