    The United States is struggling to pick up the pace of American and Afghan evacuations at Kabul airport. With an Aug. 31 deadline looming, tens of thousands remain to be airlifted from the country.http://apne.ws/OjFkmAa

        Taliban fighters and their checkpoints ring the airport, creating a major barrier for Afghans who fear that their past work with Westerners makes them prime targets for retribution.http://apne.ws/VZZtZth

        Other Afghans without the paperwork or clearance for evacuation have congregated outside the airport, adding to the chaos that has prevented some of those with papers from making it through.http://apne.ws/0XzWItb

        President Joe Biden has said that he will ensure no American is left behind, even if that means staying beyond the Aug. 31 deadline he set weeks before the Taliban took Kabul. It is not yet clear if Biden will extend the deadline for non-American evacuees.http://apne.ws/hyH4Cp5

        When will the Taliban's ransom demands to allow more people to leave be made public? Just money or also international recognition?

        Where is the rest of the world? I don't hear of any other countries trying to help these Afghans.

        Reading the comments from American people on this post and knowing their opinions about this made me just. And this is the country which calls itself superpower, champion of HRs and what notpic.twitter.com/1coylDXRfb
