    First Afghan refugees begin arriving at Fort McCoy Sunday afternoon
    There's not much in the article. I didn't see anything about COVID testing or vaccinations so I'm not sure if any of that has been done. I'll keep an eye and post an update as they become available.

    What do you think?

    Whatever the number of people that had direct relationships with the US military, and can be verified as such by what I assume is a paper trail now in Tailban hands, it simply cannot be the tens of thousands, soon to be hundreds of thousands, soon to be millions people we're going to be taking in. And are we the only nation thats accepting them? I know Germany, Quatar, the UAE maybe a few others have agreed to host them transitionally... but it sounds to me like the US is the only final destination atm.

    Austria said they wont take any since they've been dealing with fake asylum seekers for years now. Switzerland said they wont take any 'directly from Afghanistan' if that's code for something. France said it doesn't want another Syria, who can blame them /cough rapugees, but hasn't flat out said no... yet. the EU in general also said they don't want another Syria. Germany will take some but didn't give numbers and the anti-Merkel types are already livid because of what she did to their country with the last repugee crisis, she clearly hasn't learned. Australia said it will take 3000 from a pool of humanitarian visa applicants but wont leapfrog existing cases in favor of Afgans. Canada said it will take 20,000 but we all know they'll take 100k+ and dump the overflow in the US like they did with Syria. The UK also said it will take 20,000 so good fkin luck to them because the way their immigration works is similar to ours so 20k today means 500k over a few years with chain migration. Pakistan said it would seal is border. Misc other countries like Iran, Turkey, Uganda, blah blah blah misc minor African nations have spoken up but have committed to nothing.

    IMO these are middle eastern Muslims and they need to stay in regions most hospitable to their culture, their ideology, and their religion. AKA don't bring them here.

    So, the US will gladly provide housing and other goodies to foreigners but force American citizens to sleep and crap on the streets. That's wonderful.

    Biden emphasizes that Afghan refugees will be vetted before entering US

    President Biden emphasized on Sunday that refugees who are being evacuated from Afghanistan will be thoroughly vetted before they are brought to the United States.

    Biden’s comments, which he made during a Sunday afternoon speech from the White House on the evacuation effort, came as some conservative lawmakers and commentators have tried to stoke nativist concerns about welcoming Afghan refugees into the U.S.

    “Planes taking off from Kabul are not flying directly to the United States. They’re landing at U.S. military bases and transit centers around the world,” Biden said. “At these sites where they are landing, we are conducting thorough … security screening for everyone who is not a U.S. citizen or a lawful permanent resident. Anyone arriving in the United States will have undergone a background check.”

    Hm, ya vetted... but with what? I'm sure we have some background information who of the people who helped us while we were over there but how many people could that really be, hundreds? So what about the rest? Who holds the vital records necessary to do the job? Oh riiiight, our enemy the tollybon. I'm sure they'll be more than happy to help weed out threats and wont take the opportunity to slip in their fighters mhm. This is Syria all over again because we were told back then by the Obama administration that the 'refugees' would be vetted but of course the DOD had to admit it was futile because there again we didn't have access to the records we needed to do the job. Plus background check take MONTHS to verify and crosscheck and Pres Biden has already mobilized our airliners to begin delivering tens of thousands of Afgans now.

    I'm calling bullshit on this. There wont be any vetting, nothing meaningful at any rate. This is just another lie. He said this so media could parrot it and so Democrats could fold it into the opposition talking points. Every new bit of information we learn is supporting the case that this was expected and likely orchestrated.

    Have you seen anything that indicates how many people they are expecting to bring here specifically? I have been looking around but didn't find anything definitive. It's hard to put it in perspective with more information.

    As far as vetting goes, it is like a criminal and civil background check. It will show most shady things.

    What I'm more concerned about is they are being taken to military bases. I have yet to see anything about them being tested for COVID and/or vaccinated. The last thing will need is an outbreak within our military.

    We should just send them to Deleware. I believe that's the state that birthed the idiot who is responsible for them being refugees. Aka Biden

    They are going to vet foreigners and they don't even know how many people the cops shoot in America? This will work out just great.

    Don't be surprised if they end upon Chicago to displace all of the Black people there. America has its own ethnic cleansing programs.

    I imagine that some of these people are not our friends. But I don't recall the British denying all French movement to Britain during WWII because of the inevitability of their numbers containing Nazi spies.

    But the number of enemies we will create by such dishonor of leaving those who worked with us will pale in comparison to those that slipped in by taking advantage of our honor. If I'm AQ, I'm waiting for that email from that disgruntled Afghan interpreter abandoned by the US, because I can definitely use that guy...

    Depends on what you regard as a valid indicator. If we look at the claims from 'refugee' welfare groups (who stand to financially benefit from this) and their media surrogates then the number of Afgans which 'aided the US' is around 250k-300k. That could mean a short term figure of somewhere around 1.5 million overall considering family members and a long term year figure via chain migration of an addition 2.8-3 million. And that's just under the banner of those who 'aided the US'. Because now Pres Biden and VP Harris have repeated nearly identical phrases 'Afghans who are vulnerable including women and children' suggesting there is no one we wont take. Ten years from now we could very well be looking at a net gain of 15 million Afgans.

    The globalist interest which run this current President, and other Western world leaders, are heavily invested in replacement ideology and stand to make MASSIVE financial gains here. They will want every last 'refugee'.

    In the end it doesn't matter. The US will take in millions of replaceugees, the globalists will have their power and money, and radical Islam will rise once again and resume terror attacks around the world. Just another reason why there is no future for America.

    We have decayed from within. We have raised a generation of children that were taught America is not a great nation. In fact, it's a bad nation.

    If you do not have support at home, forget about projecting power. The Age of Individual Freedom is coming to an end. It won't be pretty and the future will be terrible, but that's what it will take until the next group of inspired humans decide that having government control their lives is not how they want to live.... and they will be slaughtered thanks to Big Tech and a Media that is all propaganda.

    When I think about all these kids throwing fits over global warming I just laugh because while it brings real consequences, these punks are going to have so so so sooooo much more to worry about than the likes of regional weather changes. The construct that brought them the country they hate so much because of how great it is has been canceled and conquered by an inundation of 3rd worlders who can be far easier kept in a permanent underclass than the people they're replacing.

    Truth is no one deserves America anyways. Not our ignorant worthless woketard offspring who hate everything functional and prosperous because 'White people' made it work, not the endless waves of migrants who flood in with their hands out, not our progressive moonbat 'allies' who sit back and let us do the world's dirty work and pay for it while being told how racist we are in the process, not Democrats who serve their cancerous Chinese and globalist overlords, and not Republicans who haven't had the ****ing balls to use the power when they had it properly and who have made so many brainless moronic strategic blunders that they'll likely never have the opportunity to do so again. American should and will die.
