VA just sent out the email for veterans, the idiot that started it all can also help you through his institute.

Yeah, that's kinda ironic. Bush was a war monger, not a friend of the soldier.

I don't doubt that at all.

I didn't accuse you specifically (or anyone else). I asked a question. If the implication in my question turned out to be wrong, I'd be the first to admit it.

The Dutch are trying to take some heat off the US. They abandoned their Embassy without informing the Afghans working for them that they were leaving. I haven't seen a translated post of their response, yet.

Dude stop. He, along with every media outlet, called it a vacation when he left last week.

Taliban and the Dutch? This seems like it works here.

Really don’t understand why some of you shite on this guy. He’s on top of a lot of current events and tends to be quite accurate.

The POTUS needs to be the face of this nation and he needs to be physically in the damn White House at minimum appearing like he’s working tirelessly to bring our Americans home. The WH is the residence and work place of the President and he damn sure shouldn’t be at Camp David (the presidential retreat.)

Legend…sorry if I missed it, but do they have actual numbers of Americans still there?

A total?

I haven't seen numbers anywhere.


The US had over 10,000 American Citizens over there.

They have evacuated 2000 since the start of the seige, including only 640 over the 48 hrs.

This leaves over 8k American citizens currently outstanding according to the Government's estimate of 10k last weekend.

Have we confirmed that there were actually 10k Americans on the ground and only 2k have been evacuated?

I know those are the numbers bouncing around but what sources are confirming this?
