As quoted in the article you linked, Michael McCaul (R) the ranking member of the House Foreign Relations committee, disagrees that it's America that is holding up the departures, and blamed it on the Taliban:
quote:
McCaul said six airplanes at Mazar-i-Sharif have been cleared by the State Department but the Taliban are refusing to allow them to leave.
“Well, they are not clearing airplanes to depart. They’ve sat at the airport for the last couple days, these planes, and they’re not allowed to leave,” McCaul told host Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.”
How do the flight organizers know it's not the Taliban?
