"they knew the US was pulling out"
The State department and media did everything in their power to make the situation seem stable and orderly right up until the moment they couldn't.
If these people are guilty of anything it's believing what they were told.

And any Afghani under 30, especially those born here to immigrant parents, has always known "back home" as an at least somewhat stable country (at least as stable as it has been in living memory) so there is that.

Took a fucking field trip to Afghanistan, knowing we were pullimg out and the taliban taking over.  WTF is wrong with people.

Lack of situational awareness = maximum

It even happens to people who should know better.  My brother went to France.  I told him to stay frosty and he was surprised and asked why.  I told him to look at recent reports about no go zones and religion of peace.

He went anyway.  He noted the special squads of heavily armed cops (QRF) in unmarked cars that roamed around in case something popped off.  Security was apparent and no joke.  He was on the street and in at least one location where the Bataclan massacre took place, on the same day.  He flew out that night.

I had to look it up, it was 2015.  It seems like it was much more recent, I guess time is flying by.

Wow that is pants on head retarded decision making.  

I’d say the blonde hair school girls would have it the worst off if they got captured by the taliban but then I remember they like to ass rape boys.  

ETA: disregard as I understand it this isn’t a school trip but individual families visiting relatives.  No high school football players were ass raped in the making of this thread.

I'd chain my kid to the radiator before letting them go to Afghanistan. Hard to imagine too many things dumber than taking a vaca in a war zone.

TBF, these are not Johnny and Janey Smith, and their mom Karen, on a summer jaunt. (If it were, I can assure you the cable news networks would be tripping over each other to get to their doorsteps.)

From the article:



So these are folks that are from there, and were here on Visas, went back to visit relatives, and got stuck. Not to say it was a great idea or timing for them to go back, as we see now...

Oh look, more dumb Texan shits visiting Afghanistan and now stranded

"A San Antonio man's wife and five children are struggling to find a flight out of Afghanistan after the Taliban swiftly took control of the country amid the United States' withdraw.

Noor Mohammad, 44, said his family flew to the country to visit relatives in June and had a flight booked to return in September. Now, they are unsure when or how they leave the country."

More than 20 students and 16 parents from the Cajon Valley Union School District in El Cajon, Calif., visited Afghanistan on summer vacation. Now they are among thousands of people who are waiting to leave the country amid the chaotic U.S. withdrawal that has caused political unrest across the nation, according to the Los Angeles Times.

Being from California has nothing to do with it, it's the fact they are Afghanis and have family they wanted to visit there.

There's Afghanis from Texas, Colorado, Pennsylvania, New York, and likely other states that did the same thing and are now stranded.

CDS is real.

A president that is wiling to be careless with American lives overseas and not care about their lives is a president that will be careless with the lives of American here in the USA and has no regard for their lives. Yes your life is only good to the president and his people as long as you are a good subject it is really that simply.

To be fair they might miss out on woke education and correct pronouns in california public schools but in afganistan they can learn things like :

"how to slice someones's head off on camera for maximum effect" (biology, learn where major arteries are and avoid them) combined with TV video productions class)
how to properly select a rock to throw at the condemmed woman in the village square correcting for range, arc and impact, (physics)
how to haji squat (PE class)
how to speak pashtu(foreign language, imersion method of teaching)
how to obtain opium from opium poppies and distill it ot heroin then sell to neighboring warlords for export. (chemistry and business)
bribing local officials to take, or not take action. (social studies)
How to buy and sell female family members (home economics)


As a bonus there are even afterschool clubs they can join such as:
how to construct IED's(robotics club)
goat herding (4H club)
the local school also offers many exciting travel opportunities to exciting areas such as Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Nigeria, Somalia, Philippines, and Malaysia."
