Last, the media is still only showing old footage of the very worst conditions at the airport, no updated footage of the airport or the airlifts that have resumed. Airlifts that can evacuate 5,000+ daily. Media and the oliver-sudden concerned, ignoring trump's deal to turn Afghanistan over to the taliban for a temporary peace and US pull out... Are very anxious to have this horrible no win situation end Biden's presidency.

So many people believing in some sort of fantasy democratic rule in Afghanistan... Equal rights for women! Cripes, that was Never going to happen in our lifetime, or the next, or the next.
