Afghan Reality

Grim reality, actually.

..."Send Me" is also the title of a new documentary featuring former US Special Forces Operator, and Task Force Pineapple member, Tim Kennedy. Task Force Pineapple, you will recall, was a volunteer effort by some of us to rescue American citizens and allies from the collapse in Afghanistan. My own role was stateside and limited to facilitating international negotiations and trying to help set up a private airline to move refugees. Kennedy went on the ground. 

He was there to do what the US Government failed to do, then refused to do, then actively blocked attempts to do....

 ...No one in the military or the administration has paid any price for this betrayal of duty, of country, and of countrymen. Fourteen thousand Americans were abandoned; only God knows how many finally made it out. ...

Much as we dislike being called 'threats' to this Republic, it beats the Hell out of being left behind with a target on your back and lots of men with rifles looking for you--and your wife, and your children.

There can be no question that the current President is the most amoral man ever to occupy that office.  There are others who are close, but they cannot surpass this Occupant's level of cold-blooded murder.
