President Joe Biden has effectively killed captured former U.S. Navy Veteran Mark Frerichs and thousands of Afghan translators that embedded with the U.S. Military during the 20-year war on terror in Afghanistan.
The closing of Bagram Airbase was the last stand for U.S. military personnel and the translators that risked their lives by helping Americans defeat the Taliban, and have now been painted with a great big bullseye and will continue to be hunted down by terrorists looking to exact their form of justice for helping the U.S.
There has been a small bipartisan effort in the U.S. Congress to bring awareness to the dire straits and almost certain deadly retribution they will face from Taliban forces.
“I want to be clear. If he doesn’t act, and he doesn’t get these people out, blood will be on his hands and on his administration hands, and I for one will very publicly and very loudly hold him accountable,” threatened U.S. Army Green Beret Congressman Michael Waltz (R) during an interview with The Floridian in June.
Rep. Waltz’s colleague Rep.Stephanie Murphy (D), also expresses her concerns over leaving Afghan translators, their families, and others, being left to slaughter by the Taliban.
“I'm also concerned about the women, Afghani women as well the folks who worked with our troops,” said Rep. Murphy. “My family fled Vietnam. My parents had been affiliated with the US military, and I don't want to see the same situation that happened when the US left Vietnam to happen here in Afghanistan to the folks who were affiliated with the US military.”
