Some Afghan military interpreters and other close U.S. allies, a stated priority group for evacuation from Afghanistan, are being turned away from the Kabul airport by American officials in order to give priority to U.S. citizens and green card holders, a State Department official said on Monday.

Who promised these Afghans and family members safe passage to the US? Was this promise ever made?

Correct.  Only it didn’t have to come to this!

Fair enough.
How about this promise to evacuate all these people? Was it ever made? Just doesn't make sense we would make a promise about something we never thought would happen.

I think it’s a general rule in immigration for political Asylum. here is an added fact that it is due to them aiding American interests.

It's unforgivably tragic that we got a place where we have to contemplate such a dilemma

OK just found this, a direct quote from last admins senior advisor for policy and White House director of speechwriting to President Donald Trump.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/former-pence-adviser-said-trump-073525391.html

"The United States of America never, ever, made a promise, written or unwritten, to the people of Afghanistan that if after 20 years, they were unable to secure their own country, that we would take them to ours. That is nonsense. That has never been US government policy," Miller said.

Oh, phew! We never made the promise! Great, that means that you guys could be left to get killed for helping us! Really exciting stuff. (See what I wrote about liberals.)

I am trying to get the facts and you keep posting your BS.

I am trying to understand how many people we need to evacuate and all I got was pretzel responses.

Why does this have to be about either party? We have had both parties in charge for the last 20 years.

the people of Afghanistan

Not sure if there’s something more specific but seems like Miller wasn’t willing to promise to relocate an entire country

How many Americans are still in there? Seems no one knows this number, why not?
I highly doubt there are more than a handful of American citizens in Afghanistan who want to leave. 15k people have been evacuated in the last 24h alone.

Americans have been urged to leave in the strongest terms for months if not years. There is no reason we should be risking lives and spending taxpayer $ to fly them around now.
