With Biden's absence, it makes me wonder if they aren't trying to get him out, now.
I wouldn't be surprised in the least if in the next few weeks they announce Biden is incapacitated in some manner and Kamala is taking over his duties.

I’ll be honest, Kamala being in charge may be scarier

Again, the taliban have proven over the past 20 years that they aren't stupid... I highly doubt that they will purposely harm a brit or American

I’d be surprised at this point if that doesn’t happen. I know the Democrats have finally realized that they really fricked up by making Kamala VP, but I don’t see how Biden survives this. This is the biggest Presidential scandal in my lifetime and it’s nothing compared to getting a blowjob from an intern or talking shite about your political opponent with a foreign government.

They're too busy defending the Taliban account.

The US & 60 Countries released a statement to the Taliban asking them to allow citizens to leave peacefully
US State Dept Link.

The following is the text of a joint statement on Afghanistan initially released by the following: Albania, Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Belgium, Burkina Faso, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Côte d’Ivoire, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Estonia, The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Federated States of Micronesia, Fiji, Finland, France, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Greece, Guatemala, Guyana, Haiti, Honduras, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Kosovo, Latvia, Liberia, Lichtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta?, Marshall Islands, Mauritania, Montenegro, Nauru, Netherlands, New Zealand, Niger, North Macedonia, Norway, Palau, Panama, Paraguay, Poland, Portugal, Qatar, Republic of Korea, Republic of Cyprus, Romania, Sierra Leone, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Suriname, Sweden, Togo, Tonga, Uganda, United Kingdom, Ukraine, and Yemen.
Begin text:
Given the deteriorating security situation, we support, are working to secure, and call on all parties to respect and facilitate, the safe and orderly departure of foreign nationals and Afghans who wish to leave the country. Those in positions of power and authority across Afghanistan bear responsibility—and accountability—for the protection of human life and property, and for the immediate restoration of security and civil order.
Afghans and international citizens who wish to depart must be allowed to do so; roads, airports and border crossing must remain open, and calm must be maintained.
The Afghan people deserve to live in safety, security and dignity. We in the international community stand ready to assist them.

The world begging the Taliban to let their people live tonight. What a terrible sight.

I'm sure I could make some guesses, but does anyone know who some of these people are and why they are there?

Here’s the thing: they’re not negotiating with China that want a good deal. What they do to your citizens they are as good as their word which is why the Chinese people don’t frick with foreigners. It’s so efficient I could walk in the poorest neighborhood in any of China’s major cities and feel perfectly safe, since if I’m harmed or killed in their country, the CCP will retaliate by killing their entire family to prove they take the safety of foreigners seriously. They’re talking with a regime that’s actively trying to cause the apocalypse. While all of China’s gifts and promises are poisoned, you can somewhat negotiate with them. You can’t negotiate with an apocalyptic regime.

So why comment?
Because I am tired of this hours-long back-and-forth that is going nowhere.
As is most everyone else.

Good question, actually. I suppose they didn't want to throw gas on the fire?
