From a Fox interview with Michael McCaul.... If this is true, it's getting even uglier for Xi Talibiden. https://www.breitbart.com/clips/202...ding-american-citizens-afghan-allies-hostage/ MCCAUL: I understand. Zero. And, in fact, we have six airplanes at Mazar Sharif Airport, six airplanes with American citizens on them as I speak, also with these interpreters, and the Taliban is holding them hostage for demands right now. They — we — the state has cleared these flights and the Taliban will not let them leave the airport. So, I’m sorry, the answer to your question is zero. And that’s my concern is they’re going to demand more and more, whether it be cash or legitimacy as the government of Afghanistan. WALLACE: Let me pick up on this because I didn’t know this. You’re saying that there are Americans on airplanes ready to fly out of Afghanistan right now and they’re not being allowed out because Taliban is making demands? What demands are the Taliban making? MCCAUL: Well, they are not — they are not clearing the airplanes to depart. They’ve sat at the airport for the last couple of days, these planes, and they’re not allowed to leave. We know the reason why is because the Taliban want something in exchange. This is really, Chris, turning into a hostage situation where they’re not going to allow American citizens to leave until they get full recognition from the United States of America.
Biden bent us over, the Taliban even offered to use lube, and Biden told them no, just have at it, and now that the bloody mess is over with the Taliban are wanting sloppy seconds which Biden is more than happy to give them so long as they can do it behind closed doors.
Trusting the Taliban was as dumb as it gets. About as smart as when the Russians trusted the treaty with Hitler. The USA will be paying lots of money, blood, sweat, and tears for years to come for the foolhardy plan the Biden Admin came up with. Incompetence to the 9th degree. Now for the latest quote from the Admin: "We plan to hold the Taliban to the agreement they made with us". Morons.
I guess the people that stayed until the last minute could not predict this, but you and I sure could of.....
To clarify There is no one on board these planes according to NGO officials. They say there are 6 empty planes waiting for clearance to leave Afghanistan, these planes are scheduled to transfer somewhere over 1,600 passengers, including around 100 US citizens. These passengers are currently waiting in their safe houses for the green light. NGO officials also say that these planes have been grounded because because the Taliban haven't not given clearance
Right because he don't do anything unless he gets instructions first from his boss or handlers. Why did we let a old cenile man become potus and embarrass our country? It's sad that people actually wanted Biden as president.
They were being lied to by out state department that they would be safe and protected and would never be abandoned in country.
It could have been avoided by Biden getting our citizens out before the army and you already knew that.
When Iran imprisoned two of Ross Perot's employees and demanded $12 million ransom Perot formed a team, they made a plan, and they rescued the men. It takes planning and it takes brains, and it takes experience, and it takes guts. Face it, Biden has neither and that's why Americans are still in Afghanistan.
Joe Biden planned for this to happen, apparently. "We planned for every constituency" - umm err "contingency". So he must have intended for this to be the outcome.
Biden and those around him have never had to produce anything. All they had to do was dress up, talk pretty, and act important.
Not my version, I did not make up the details, I simply posted the information from NGO officials. The purpose of my post is not to persuade anyone of anything, but to clarify any misconceptions or misinformation in relation to the situation
