The Biden administration makes unkept promises

 https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/08/25/world/asia/afghanistan-evacuations-estimates.html

The Biden administration makes unkept promises to the estimated few hundred American Citizens left behind in Afghanistan but no one every talks about the hundreds of thousand possibly million of allies. These people risked their lives to help our soldiers and given empty promises of a better life and safety for them and their families after the war. Prior to the August 31st deadline The New York Times estimated there was not enough time to evacuate everyone. Did American leadership heed the warnings?

Even though he said it several times, once Biden received the August 31st date he or his masters never planned adjusting the timeline to ensure everyone who wanted to get out got out. Blinken then states American or Afghan who worked with the U.S. is promised “free passage” by the Taliban. Who makes more empty promises, Biden or the Taliban?

At least 250,000 Afghans who may be eligible for expedited American visas remain in Afghanistan, far too many for American forces to rescue before their deadline to leave next week, new estimates suggest.

Many Afghan interpreters, advisers and others who worked with the U.S. government or American organizations over the past 20 years and their families are eligible for special visas. And many fear retribution from the Taliban and are desperate to leave.

The group estimated that the number could be far higher, depending on the assumptions used: More than a million Afghans who remain in the country, it found, could be eligible for expedited immigration status.

On Tuesday, Jen Psaki, the White House press secretary, estimated that broader number could also be in the millions.

On Tuesday, President Biden reaffirmed his plan to remove all American troops by the end of the month, although he said the timeline could be adjusted if necessary. “We’re currently on a pace to finish by August the 31st,” he said.

At least 4,500 American citizens and their family members have been evacuated, and roughly 1,500 American citizens remain, Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken said on Wednesday.

Mr. Blinken said Wednesday that the United States would evacuate as many Afghan allies as possible, and that any Americans or Afghans who have worked with the U.S. mission and want to leave after that date should be free to do so. The Taliban have promised to allow “free passage” to those who qualify even after the withdrawal, he said.

Despite their promises, the Taliban said they would block Afghans trying to leave the country from traveling to Kabul’s airport on Tuesday. Even with the Americans still operating the airport, the obstacles for anybody trying to evacuate are immense. Just getting there is a perilous ordeal, with jostling, desperate crowds braving Taliban checkpoints, clogging the roads and risking injury or death.

“We risked our lives,” said the woman, who asked not to be named because of concerns for her family’s safety.

I hope none of it has ever leaked in her bag.

Joe Biden should take the same test.
