That is not all they have to answer for.
FoxNews.com reports that
A Tennessee congressman who is also an Iraq & Afghanistan war veteran sent a letter to the State Department demanding answers after a source informed his office evacuees being held at a Southside Virginia military base have had “free reign” of the campus and have allegedly been leaving the base using rideshare apps without restraint from officials, Fox News has learned.
Rep. Mark Green, who represents part of Middle Tennessee wrote to Secretary of State Antony Blinken Wednesday after a source with knowledge of the situation made the allegations to his office.
Green wrote Blinken asking for information regarding allegations not-fully-vetted Afghan evacuees being held at Fort Pickett have “basically have free reign of the complex and have even been allowed to leave despite not having completed the vetting process.”
He claimed soldiers at Fort Pickett, located between Petersburg and South Boston, have no authority to “arrest or stop” any of the evacuees from leaving the base on their own free will, regardless of vetting status.
“My source has made shocking allegations,” Green wrote. Among the allegations mentioned, Green wrote “several evacuees have been picked up by Uber drivers without any permission from authorities, or being cleared to leave.”
Green called upon his combat service in Afghanistan to request confirmation or denial of the allegations made by the source, telling Blinken they pose an obvious national security risk.
The State Department has not been able to provide a breakdown of evacuees, pertaining to how many are interpreters who aided the U.S. military, how many are other SIV holders, and how many are simply Afghan citizens seeking to escape the ruthless Taliban rule.
When contacted by Fox News, the State Department said as a general matter it does not comment on communications with Congress.
Well, after all, what can a few possible members of the Taliban accomplish?
Over 3,000 American deaths, that’s what.
Here is what happened the last time unvetted Islamists were allowed to roam freely in America.
15 of the 19 Muslim Terrorists who carried out the attack on September 11, 2001 were Saudi Arabian citizens — and the mastermind Osama bin Laden was the son of a wealthy Saudi Arabian contractor with close ties to the Saudi Royal Family.
Court documents in the case of Zacarias Moussaoui, the 20th hijacker from 9/11/2001, outline how the three main leaders in Florida — Mohamed Atta, Marwan al-Shehhi and Ziad Jarrah — arrived in Florida in the summer of 2000. Interviews and media accounts fill many of the gaps left by the FBI.
Atta, al-Shehhi and Jarrah had attended Technical University in Hamburg, Germany, in the late 1990s. They had been roommates there, part of an Islamic student group that hated Western ways. Atta signed a “will” in 1996, pledging to die in a “holy war” against the infidels.
The federal indictment against Moussaoui told how more than $114,000 from the United Arab Emirates was distributed that summer to Atta and al-Shehhi through SunTrust bank accounts in Florida. Much more would come later from the al-Qaida terrorist network. The cost of the operation was nearly $500,000.
The indictment said Atta and al-Shehhi took flying lessons from July to December at Huffman Aviation, a flight school in Venice.
Jarrah showed up that summer in Venice also, taking piloting classes at a neighboring flight school.
When Atta and al-Shehhi got their commercial pilots licenses in December 2000, Florida was still pre-occupied with the close election that put George W. Bush in the White House.
A few days later, Atta and al-Shehhi moved over to Florida’s east coast, in Opa-Locka, where each paid $1,500 cash for three hours in a Boeing 727 simulator.
During the spring and summer of 2001, eight additional hijackers came to the United States and settled in Florida. Nine opened SunTrust bank accounts. Three others arrived in San Diego, completing the five-man team based in California.
That spring and summer, the Florida terrorist group made itself at home in South Florida, renting apartments and condos, attending gyms, and going to restaurants. They were seen a lot, hanging around Hollywood and Delray Beach.
These terrorists assimilated into American Society, excuse the expression, flying under the radar, only to strike on September 11th, 2001, killing 2,819 in the word Terrorist attack ever on American soil.
Where the funding for these Saudi Terrorists actually came from, remains a mystery,
So, yeah.
I think that the procedures being used to bring in poorly-vetted Afghanis directly from a country which was just taken over the the murderous Radical Islamists known as the Taliban was a very stupid and dangerous move by an incompetent Administration.
Especially, when that same Administration is refusing to let American Citizens leave Afghanistan on privately chartered flights, arranged by retired American Veterans.
