Abu Saleh via Telegram is reporting (while constantly reminding of sporadic reports due to lack of power, internet, etc.) that the opposition in Panjshir region has taken so many Taliban prisoners that they don't know what to do with them. Apparently they put explosives in some mountain passes where they expected the Taliban to approach trapping the Taliban fighters.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

There weren't 120k+ Americans. When pushing back on the Biden Admin's claim that there are no stranded Americans, throwing out numbers like 120k means nothing. Let's stick to

They are claiming now there are no Americans stranded?

4k+Better? @Lurker   :)

Better, and still a "But officer." What do the ones they got out have to do with there being more stranded Americans?

No matter how successful the evacuation was there will always be you didn't get this one or that one. You can get out 99.99% and that still would not be good enough for the political agenda folks.

"Speeding? But officer, I'm wearing a seat belt, staying in my lane, and I'm even sober!"

This particular claim isn't that the evacuation wasn't successful. It's pushing back on Psaki's ridiculous back and forth with Doocy, insisting there are no stranded Americans. The deflection to what they did do doesn't address the issue.

Sure, I would feel that should have stayed until they got "ME" out.
Now put yourself in anyone of the 13 that gave their lives to get people out. How would you feel?

We can go back and forth all day on this and it will be what the definition of is is. She claimed after being pushed we are not leaving them stranded.

The Biden-Harris administration burned the building down to the ground, No matter how many people the FD saved and got out, if anyone doesn’t get out that’s on their hands. #NotStranded

Since everyone wants to talk about promises and the blame game lets do that.
Last admin promised to end the war. They broke that promise which resulted in Americans stranded and Americans dead.
If the last admin kept their promise this would have never happened under the current admin.

You're really nailing these "but officer" arguments today.

She claimed they are not stranded. We may get them out eventually, possibly, but they are very much stranded at the moment. No two ways about it.

You should understand what "but officer" means before throwing it around.

Says you.

“Addl context on American citizens of what I said: “We are committed to bringing Americans, who want to come home, home. We are in touch with them via phone, via text, via e-mail, via any way that we can possibly reach Americans to get them home if they want to return home…,” she tweeted. “…we are not leaving Americans who want to return home. We are going to bring them home. And I think that’s important for the American public to hear and understand.”
