What about this hostage situation
GOP Rep McCaul is claiming on Fox? I see no threads on it.

Americans being held in Afghanistan against their will--just like President Trump warned would happen.

2. I don't watch Fox. Ever.
So, no idea.

3. I've been looking for other sources...
And haven't found any. So, not sure what to believe.
Wait for Rachael or Joy or Sleepy Joe himself to tell you what to believe.

7. I wouldn't use the word "hostage"
Apparently the Taliban isn't allowing 6 planes of evacuees, including Americans to leave Kabul Airport without some American compensation.

What the hell else would you call it?

8. I was afraid something like this would happen. Hope
it's just b.s.. Hostage is what he claims.
Looks like it's happening.

9. This was predictable and probably not politically damaging.
But if AQ or IS-K gets their hands on Americans and hurts them... it'll be bad.
The current situation can be resolved by Biden threatening the Afghan/Taliban Gov't finances...
It was predictable and nobody could've seen it coming--both at the same time. We've heard those excuses before.
A political problem--that's all this is to the primitives...or any democrat, for that matter. Just throw money at them and they'll go away. I doubt it.

11. I have confidence that the President and his team are already on it.
I'll end this thread with that quote.

Well, according to soon to be recalled governor newscum, bidunce is coming to California to campaign for his sorry ass, so what exactly is his team on? https://www.politico.com/states/california/story/2021/09/02/newsom-biden-still-coming-to-california-to-fight-recall-1390690 (https://www.politico.com/states/california/story/2021/09/02/newsom-biden-still-coming-to-california-to-fight-recall-1390690)

In simpler plainer words, they are being held hostage for ransom.

Even worse is 'double-layer' of critical-mass for the hostages, if the Taliban are leveraging them for a UN-handout.

In Carter's Iran Hostage Crisis, Iran held "only" 52 hostages. The Talibanders may have more than 1,000 in those 6 planes, and there may be others they haven't yet discovered and exploited. LIEden may think his Kabul Kluster-F is over, but he may be about to learn otherwise. Iran held their hostages until Reagan was elected, who they knew would handle the situation differently (do at least some DUmmies believe GHWB flew in an SR-71 to Paris to get Iran to hold the hostages until Carter was out of office? :rotf: ). If the Talibanders decide to go full Tehran on LIEden ...

"What's this 'hostage situation'? Our left-wing news sources aren't talking about it."

I wonder how long the MSM thinks they can ignore it.
Without ever watching them, I've noticed their outtake-clips are featuring more obscure pundits from more obscure 'colleges and policy-foundations. Biden still has over 3 1/3rd years to go. By then the MSM will be interviewing potted-plants.

We have a government that implored citizens to go to a hostile foreign country in an effort to nation build it had been told was doomed from the beginning, then abandon those citizens to be held for ransom, imprisoned, and perhaps raped, tortured, and beheaded; and now seeks to conceal that fact with a complicit media just to protect its standing in political polls.
Make no mistake, we are being ruled over by an adversary that will murder your family in your home.

And they will happily use a minor biological attack from China to do justify it.
:tinfoil2: I am beginning to believe the CTs that consider Democrat/China collusion regarding the WuFlu as a means to oust Trump and to allow leftist governments take control in many countries. :tinfoil2:

Deliberately released? No.

China has had too many "accidental" releases for me to believe any thing they say. Still, the Democrats have aided and abetted them during this time. Biden's actions in Afghanistan benefited China more than the Afghan people.

Ummm, DUmbass? Gropey Joe and his team of minions is what put those people on those aircraft and the rest of Afghanistan in the situation they're in in the first place. You mouth breathing, oxygen thieving wastes of skin at the DUmp are just too blind, stupid and lacking in common decency to see this fact.

They are called collateral damage. But don't worry we have 10's of thousands of afgan refugees coming along with all the other refugees streaming across the southern border so we won't miss them.
I hope all involved in this debacle die a slow and painful death. :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :rant: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

Made a small correction. It's the people who caused this and their supporters, not the ones caught up in the chaos of this, that deserve the slow and painful death.
