'They will behead us': Afghans who helped American troops now fear for their lives

As the United States approaches the Sept. 11 deadline for pulling American troops from Afghanistan, advocates increasingly warn that some 18,000 locals who helped U.S.-led forces will be hunted down by vengeful Taliban.

"These people will have a bullseye and a target on their back from the moment we leave the country," Rep. Michael McCaul said Monday at a hearing of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

In the past six years, the Texas Republican said, 300 Afghans have been killed in retribution for working with U.S. forces. "If we abandon them, we are signing their death warrants."

Meanwhile, Biden is deciding on his favorite flavor of ice cream and allowing anybody and everybody flood the southern border.

The Biden Administration - What a bunch of cold hearted, self serving ass holes.

@jackjjackson Watch what happens in TWO generations -- total success (unless they get taken over by WOKE/VICTIM culture).

And that has been done in certain and very limited cases, it would take the political will of our own Countrymen to accomplish that for 20,000 and with our stance on Immigration, do you think there would be Bi-Partisan and popular support for it?

There should be. What happened at the end in Vietnam? Did we leave our collaborators to be beheaded? @spjennifer

@jackjjackson Vietnamese Boat People come to mind eventually, yes we did rescue [u]some[/u] of the Vietnamese but MANY were left behind to be put into "Reeducation Camps" by the Vietcong.
