People were left behind as well, American civilians, contractors, and other support staff necessary for the 20-year war which President Joe Biden surrendered, waving the white flag in a manner that not even France would do.
The AP is also vague regarding these "People." "Pentagon says that about 3,800 civilians have been evacuated from Afghanistan over the past day." Who are these "Civilians"? Further in the article they get more specific, "Of the 17,000 people evacuated since Aug. 15, just 2,500 have been Americans. U.S. officials have estimated there are as many as 15,000 Americans in Afghanistan but acknowledge they don't have solid numbers."
The US military is certainly evacuating "People" but why are only 15 percent of evacuees Americans? Who are the other 85 percent? Obviously not Americans.
The Daily Mail is more specific, "Hero airmen reveal they flew 823 Afghans out of Kabul including 183 kids after scrapping red tape to cram record number of people on C-17 jet." Any Americans or just Afghans? They went on, "The US has removed 9,000 people since Sunday but only around 1,000 of those are US citizens." It seems Americans are not high on Biden's evacuation priority list.
Did we have that many Afghans helping us in our war efforts, and should they be prioritized over Americans? Biden's "Operation Allies Refuge" plan was for evacuating "Thousands" of Afghans, not half a million.
"People" are being evacuated and only if you read into the meat of the article will you see how few Americans are actually part of the evacuation.
It's the same for evacuations, describing "People" rather than "Americans" in a transparent attempt to hide the fact that Biden is more concerned about loading up America with migrants, which some Republican governors are eager to host in their states, rather than moving heaven and earth to get American citizens out of harm's way and back home, as other countries are doing for their citizens.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
