Fullbore Friday
the good in the shadows
Right now throughout Afghanistan and the different ways out of that nation, Americans, Brits, and others are doing all they can to fill in the gaping scar of dishonor that is our defeat-of-choice and retreat from Afghanistan.
There are individuals, ad-hoc groups of like minded veterans, family members, and others who are doing all they can to help Americans, family members, and those who trusted and fought with us from almost certain death.
From American school kids, to helicopter pilots - people are trusted in our government to not leave them behind are trapped. There are good people on the other end who are doing extraordinary things to make up for the disgraceful official US government abandonment of those left behind.
Some are already to safety, but thousands more are still trapped in a nightmare that will only grow darker with time.
Over the course of the next few weeks you may hear of some of their stories, other tales will always be hidden due to the desires of those involved, but the stories will come.
There will be books and movies - some good some cringingly bad - that will come out over the next few years about what is happening right now in the shadows.
I don't have any specific stories to share this week - it isn't my place - but know this; we are a nation of great people who will always have enough people willing to take action even when our government fails us.
Fullbore to them.
Fullbore.
In a quote often attributed to Trotsky, the biden regime is going to learn the phrase, “You may not be interested in war, but war (jihad) is interested in you,” is going to apply. Sadly, this will cover all Americans in our return to a September 10 mindset, except we’re now living with a wide open southern border too.
The biden regime believes that Afghanistan is now behind us, but the genocide/American hostage crisis is only beginning to the delight and pleasure of all our enemies, especially the Chinese. Then events will deteriorate. We live in a world with nukes, and many nuts who want nukes.
To paraphrase Churchill, we’re not at the end of this existential struggle, “…only at the end of the beginning.” Stay tuned because our enemies detect weakness in the same way Schumer detects a TV news camera.
One small silver lining in this terrible series of events have been the 21st century “Ross Perots,” getting Americans, and other good people out of harm’s way. Perot performed a similar feat during the Iranian crisis in the late 1970s. God bless these patriots.
Shabash!
