[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Why hasn’t the Afghan child been returned to her family?! The kidnappers have been consistently aided and abetted by the judicial system. Military board substantiates misconduct but declines to fire Marine who adopted Afghan orphan https://abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/military-board-substantiates-misconduct-declines-fire-marine-adopted-114623926[/quote] From the article, at the end, one of the Masts testified publicly. Stephanie Mast explained why they kept/are keeping the girl. "The deciding panel of two lieutenant colonels and a colonel was allowed to ask questions, and one asked Stephanie Mast why she and her husband continued to try to adopt the girl even after she had been reunited with relatives in Afghanistan. They noted that multiple high-ranking officials, including then-Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and a federal judge, told them to stop. "When she responded that getting the child to the United States was their highest priority, the board asked whether the assumption that a child would be better off in the U.S. rather than Afghanistan was a product of Western bias. “They have a survival mentality,” she said of Afghans. “We believe in life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And we wanted her to have that.”"[/quote]
