[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ Forgot to add that there is a whole political issue that is also a huge factor. The baby's parents were killed on or around September 5, 2019.

A few months before this was the time when the US was negotiating a withdrawal with the Taliban. The talks between U.S. special envoy Zalmay Khalilzad and top Taliban official Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar centered on the United States withdrawing its troops from Afghanistan in exchange for the Taliban pledging to block international terrorist groups from operating on Afghan soil.

So the position of the US and Taliban was that there weren't foreign fighters yet villagers and Army rangers say there were. So it was in the interest of officials on both sides to say a baby found was not foreign but Afghani.

This is also why DNA testing needs to be done. [/quote]

1) the video you linked shows a little girl with dark hair. WITW are you talking about?

2) there are laws that handle situations like this, and as already discussed in posts above, the placement of the child falls under Afghan law. It doesn’t matter what you think or what you want to make you satisfied. It doesn’t matter what I think and it certainly doesn’t matter what the Masts think. Under Afghan law, a child that loses its parents is to be placed with a willing family member. If that isn’t possible, then the child is to be placed with a Muslim Afghan family. Joshua Mast is not an Afghan citizen and he’s also not Muslim. End of story. He has zero claim to this child when she was on Afghan soil. And luring her caretakers to bring her all the way to the US (aka child trafficking) doesn’t change that either.

The US is not going to ignore treaties and laws covering child trafficking and the courts have said as much. Under Afghan law a DNA is irrelevant. If the couple were to take a DNA test and it finds 0% difference they’re not disqualified from being the rightful guardians. You don’t seem to understand that. It has zero bearing in the case.
