New Flight Carrying Americans Out of Afghanistan
1:12 Tbh, those marks are nothing compared to the marks left after judicial caning in Singapore. This just shows that Singapore should be sanctioned for human rights violation
Biden is in more trouble
They should have left Jan 20
So sad, we left our fellow Americans behind… Tragic!!!
at least they get trained on military vehicle weak points,,in case the military needs a few civilian mechanics.
The US has such high unemployment and a strained system, we needed additional pressure?? 1 John 2:17/Zephaniah 1:17,18/ 3:8. God is going to let it be destroyed, Because he has something completely different. It hasn't entered into the heart of man what God has planned for those who love*â¤Him
They need more flights.
There's thousands still there.
so more propaganda lies…. got it
One is stuck playing the impassioned protagonist in one's Subjective Narrative of SelfðŸŽËâ€
Yeah right 👌
Wow !! One whole plane
Are these people actually Americans?ðŸ¤â€Â
It's amazing how fast conservatives have stopped whining about Americans in Afghanistan! The storyline has been kicked to the curb by a missing girl in Utah and the California recall charade!
Just reading that we might go back. Send that fat assed milly with a Vietnam era m 16 and 1944 sea rations.
Case in point America never lives it's people behind! Many more rescue plans are on it's way by the US government in the comming days until all americans are out of that countty!
Delighted to.wattch YOU running in humiliation. Time to dominat the world is over.
Why is the Taliban not beating Anas Malick journalist.
Weeks after Biden left them behind, NO THANKS TO BIDEN.
This shouldve been done BEFORE the military was removed. Biden/Harris screwed up worst then orange man ever did.
i n t e l l e c t w e b s you are the best job well done
What's up with so many Americans in that country anyway? Like more Americans in Afghanistan than in TX, FL and N.Y. combined.
Go home, losers! Running dogs!
Over a hundred “Afghan nationals†and only less than 20 Americans. Pathetic. Thousands of Americans went to die for these people and they’re to scared to fight for themselves.

Congratulations Joe. Thank you for ending America's senseless Bombing of 14 Muslim countries in the name of Peace.
Afghanistan, Egypt, Iran, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Pakistan, Palestine, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Tunisia and Yemen.
The 20 year war cost $300M a day and 2,461 lives and 9/11 was 2,996 lives but both are only 2 days US Covid deaths.
The drama is over and international flights have restarted to allow Americans to finally get out of Afghanistan for good..
😳😳😳😳 The Biden Administration is Mandating the Death 💀 Jab!!! Start the Nuremberg Trials Now!!!
God please have mercy
Are they really american???
But biden said everyone was out? Afghanistan failure, Afghanistan failure, Afghanistan failure, no matter how hard the media tries not to cover the story, remember Afghanistan failure, Afghanistan failure,Afghanistan failure!
Nineteen rescued; many more to go. Hopefully all Americans and as many Afghani as possible will be released out of Afghanistan.
Americans that were held hostage in Kabul!
these fake medias need to release all the footages and complaints made by our troops in Afghanistan. our troops complained that Afghanistan's military are like paper. they go missing after payday. they leave their post to go get drunk. they cry and whine about training. they lose expensive military equipments.
Why is there right mind would Americans citizens be in this shithole of a mess
I guess they’re all gonna get free money and rent food for life.. BS
😳 😳 😳 😳 They have found 15,000,000 Fraudulent votes ðŸâ€â€Ã‚³ for Biden!!! Take 15,000,000 votes ðŸâ€â€Ã‚³ from Biden and give them to the rightful owner Trump and the Election looks like this!!! Trump got 90,000,000 Votes ðŸâ€â€Ã‚³ and Biden got 65,000,000 Votes ðŸâ€â€Ã‚³!!! Trump won by a Landslide!!!!
To think there’s Americans left behind in Afghanistan under Taliban rule on the anniversary of 9/11.. this president is terrible!
Biden became the most incompetent president in American history
Joe the screw up strikes again! https://youtu.be/v0PuEFUIawU
Pakistan do all of this💩🇵🇰ðŸ˜ÂÂ
The matter is why joe bidan is afraid of Taliban that's why they improve their with china😒
I wish trump was back again ,cuz he know how to beats opponiant
And joe biden can't support india that much😒 but american forces say we need India , india is that country who support us in futureðŸ‘ÂÂðŸÂ»
It’s been ten years since US invasion of Afghanistan
Have, anyone here hear about binary options trading company investment, we're Individuals are given opportunity to trade and make Large profit just within three days of trade
It's so sad to see people cannot stay in their country it's sad to see anybody going through this no matter what race or nationality the person is. I just hope they are good willing people and they will be safe where they go.
Americans are asking democrats to be respectful of the 9/11 victims by not spreading their anti-American hate speech.
Another day another blessing from on YouTube thanks for the successful deal done
Another day another blessing from on YouTube thanks for the successful deal done
They don’t look very American to me.
Afghanistan: Notes From a Veteran
I agree with the decision to withdraw from Afghanistan, because we should’ve never been there in the first place. But to leave before our embassy was emptied, before thousands of American contractors working and living in Afghanistan were secured, and before our interpreters and their families were evacuated is disgraceful and will only ensure that the U.S. will struggle to find trustworthy native allies in future conflicts. That American contractors will think twice before taking on a mission with a government that has abandoned them.
We invaded Afghanistan to fight Al Qaeda after 9/11; that was the tagline. But we could’ve choked the Taliban and Al Qaeda’s finances without stepping foot into Afghan territory. We could’ve used our intel and our vast technological capabilities to pinpoint their financial streams and cut them off. We could’ve used severe sanctions against nations who we already knew were funding them. We could’ve used focused airstrikes to take out their weapons caches and their arms routes. We could’ve examined the NGOs and charitable organizations here in the U.S. and in allied nations, identified those supporting terrorism, closed them, and imprisoned those responsible.
But we didn’t do any of that. Not really. Instead, we started a war that we knew would never be won and extended it years after we had completed our mission of killing Osama bin Laden and destroying the caliphate. This decision cost over 2,300 American lives and over 20,000 wounded in action.
And what did the American people get in return for the lives and resources wasted?
NOTHING.
But I’ll tell you who did benefit: defense contractors like Lockheed Martin, BAE Systems, Boeing, Northrop Grumman, and General Dynamics. And of course, their shareholders.
To be very clear, “shareholders†aren’t limited to the millionaires and the billionaires of the world, but also include the many middle-class American retirees that depend on the extra income to make ends meet.
And there is the rub.
In total, the U.S. and its allies spent $778 billion on defense from 2001 to 2019. And if you think that wealth creation wasn’t a factor when Bush decided to invade Afghanistan, wake up.
So, here we are.
We knew that we couldn’t remain in Afghanistan indefinitely and I agree with withdrawing; just not in the way that it was done. The Biden administration ignored their intelligence officers and pulled out without a viable exit strategy in place. That’s not leadership; at best, it’s incompetence.
I’d remind you that Obama released terrorist leaders from Guantanamo Bay in 2016, and that the $778 billion worth of weapons and technology that this administration left behind are now in the hands of those men.
I’d remind you that China has officially recognized the Taliban as a legitimate governing body.
And that  thanks to Biden  we have an open southern border where unknown millions are being escorted into our nation to the detriment of our own people.
Do you see where this is going?
It’s hard to believe that anyone was caught “off guard†by the failure of this withdrawal, that it was the unexpected result of poor oversight, because Trump said we would withdraw by May 1st of this year and that was common knowledge to our military and intel operations. The generals knew it. Mattis knew it. Milley knew it. And there was ample time to plan and prepare.
Instead, they focused on ‘Critical Race Theory’ and ‘Gender Studies’ in our military, while China grew their navy larger than our own.
So, what can we Americans do right now about these developing events?
Prepare. I mean it.
Get off the couch, put down the wine, and train your body, your mind, and your spirit so that you’re physically, mentally, and spiritually able to weather the storm, because it’s definitely coming.
Our societies, communities, and our nation as a whole have been systemically weakened from the inside for the past 20 years. The time to push back is now.
We need to regroup and restore our American identity; our convictions, our mores, our values, and our standards. Failing this, we will not have the power nor the strength to defend ourselves from foreign threats, many of which I’m sure are already here through our unprotected borders.
To the Afghan people who long for peace: our hearts go out to you.
To Bush and Obama: This is your doing. You own it.
To Trump: You knew this was coming and were negotiating with the Taliban, but you thought you’d have time to finish the job in your second term; you were wrong. You should have tried harder and finished the negotiations faster. This is a lesson to us all; do what you can while you still can  tomorrow isn’t promised, to anyone.
To Biden and his puppet masters: Your open borders and the chaos you have created both here and abroad has put our nation in great peril. We may not know who you are yet, but we will. The truth will out, and you will be held accountable.
Stay strong, America. God bless.

Gee, I wonder how expensive that was? Now they'll have enough to repair a small percentage of our hardware. Good job.
