[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are they the people who helped the American government during this 20y war or just regular people who want out of the new Taliban government?

Also, are they staying here or are they going to be moved throughout the country?[/quote]

Conservative here. I have a close friend who is helping with the effort. She assured me that they are all vetted in multiple checkpoints throughout the airport and indeed are definitely those that helped us. She's in cybersecurity.

She also (disturbingly) told me that there are very few Americans among them and that those Americans have 90 days to pay back all evacuation expenses while Afghanis are getting $1200 per person in the family, housing, food, clothing, furniture etc. [/quote]

Actually, I am pretty sure this is true.

Heads up, if you are a US citizen - the State Dept. will try its best to evacuate you from war zones, but you are expected to reimburse the US taxpayer for this and you have to sign a promissory note before you get on the plane. If you have a US passport you aren't a refugee.

I have no issue with supporting refugees - these folks are going to spend years and lots of $ to become legal permanent residents or citizens.
