"Allies refuge" eh? Let that be a lesson to anyone who dreams of helping the yanks in the future.

Rep Jason Crow has pushed this issue for a long time. He has discussed in length all the people who helped him with translating, local knowledge, and cultural knowledge while he was serving in Afghanistan. It’s disgraceful how our military utilized so many people and then abandoned them. It’s not surprising unfortunately.

Thats not so much on the military as it is with politicians and their take on a black and white immigration policy. Politicians from the past gave them the promise of refuge for their sacrifice to serving the US. The politicians of today now say "f*** that. We dont owe you a thing even though you helped us."

Didn't the UK do that with the Cossacks?

The US has a long history of abandoning people who fought for us. Kurds many times, lots of hmong, vietnam, etc.

Yes. Shipping them to Congo is a new one though.

2,000 lbs worth of people isn’t that many people, actually. (I’ll see myself out.)

I would think they have higher priorities/qualifications than a few hundreds of South Africans refuge. I have nothing against the latter, but this group of people have helped US and are displaced beacuse of that.

Moral of the story: if you help the US to invade your country, they will probably f*** you over

The other option they gave these Afghans than being resettled in f****** DR Congo is getting sent back to get executed by the Taliban. This is not even remotely good faith and the US administration is being cruel deliberately.

You know that thought of doing "future you a favor" by doing a difficult thing today? The U.S. is doing the exact opposite of that.

Basically every administration since Nixon has done the opposite of what would be best for future us.

Disagree. Obama administration did and tried to do a lot of this that would be much better for us today, if Trump didn’t immediately start rolling stuff back.

sending afghans to the congo sounds like a logistics nightmare for everyone involved.

Hey! Thanks for the help! But sorry you can’t come the US. Instead you can go to one of the poorest, most corrupt nations on the planet. F*** you! Man, our government is f****** evil.

Several questions. What purpose does this solve? Why there?

It’s a loophole since the US can’t send them back to Afghanistan. So they deport them to a country that has fewer rules as to what they do with those refugees.

Contempt. Disdain. Cruelty. To both questions.

It absolve the US of any and all future abuse/disappeared as it won’t be on US soil. Also much less visibility and ability to protest thru news channel in these 3rd world countries This is akin to human rights abuse but it’s somehow ok because US.

*David Wilcock* and I can't seem to find any verification for this. It's been on here since yesterday, but even his Wiki hasn't changed.

Imagine having to flee from the number one refugee crisis in the world to the number two refugee crisis.

Probably safer in the Congo than the US and that's saying a lot.
