[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not only did the Trump administration fail  to protect the troops discussed in this thread, they’re also doing nothing beyond issuing warnings to US citizens in the Middle East to leave the area. In contrast, the following governments are taking active measures to evacuate their own citizens:

- Russia: Organizing emergency aircraft and commercial repatriation flights; ~1,000 already returned from UAE/Abu Dhabi and Muscat, with ~4,500 more expected soon via multiple flights from UAE and Oman.

- Germany: Chartering taxpayer-funded flights to evacuate vulnerable citizens (e.g., ill, children, pregnant) from Saudi Arabia and Oman; plans underway for broader efforts amid ~30,000 stranded.

- United Kingdom: Planning government-chartered flights (e.g., via British Airways) to repatriate citizens from Oman and other Gulf areas.

- France: Facilitating evacuation of vulnerable nationals (~400,000 in affected Gulf countries); starting operations for high-risk groups.

- Spain: Organizing evacuation flights; at least one from Abu Dhabi (carrying Spaniards) landed in Madrid, with more expected via Istanbul and other routes.

- Greece: Setting up plans to repatriate thousands, though complicated by airspace closures.

- Japan: Organizing bus evacuations from Israel (e.g., to Jordan/Amman; at least one bus departed Tel Aviv with nationals); ready to dispatch Self-Defense Forces if needed; monitoring ~1,000 in Israel and ~200 in Iran.

- Other EU nations (e.g., Italy, Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Poland): Coordinating repatriation flights from Oman, UAE, Egypt, and Jordan (e.g., Italy from Muscat/Abu Dhabi; Bulgaria from Middle East airports; Czech via Egypt/Jordan buses).

- South Korea: Evacuating nationals (e.g., 62 from Israel by bus to Egypt); working to repatriate ~21,000 overall.

And why are you surprised? The GOP has been running on destroying the civil service since Newt Gingrich. Trump put the final nail in the coffin last year. [/quote]
