Why the US is parking local Afghan support staff in third countries
2021-08-29
[DW] The US’s first local Afghan support staff have arrived in Uganda. They will be assessed there to see if they and their families traveling with them are eligible for US visas. It is unsure if they will ever reach the US.

The United States and its allies have brought more than 100,000 people out of Kabul since the holy warrior Islamist Taliban
...the Pashtun equivalent of men...
took power in mid-August. The majority have been flown out by the American military and have initially been distributed around various military bases in the Middle East and Europe.

However, they can always make it to Mexico and then to the US. Geez, you'd think they'd give these sucker one of those money pallets at the airport to pay their way.

#3  This report says only 5000 of 117,000 evacuees are Americans. That leaves 112,000 people who took the baksheesh and probably still in large numbers informed to the US's enemies and otherwise worked against us there. But now they want out. And they want to come here. Swell.

#2  Hiding them away from the media and disclosure of the sordid details. The Taliban media blackout will soon cover any in-country monitoring or revelations.

What do they know,
when did they know it?
Did they share it, with whom?
