       Exactly! You should never have stopped supporting them either!
       Instead you let your "best ally" Israel, and idiots like Bush
       and his "Jewish friends", suck the U.S. into endless war in the
       middle-east all on behalf of Israel!

       Olivia Troye: Visa System For Afghan Allies 'Was Destroyed'
       Under Trump
       --- Quote ---
       > Olivia Troye, a former homeland security advisor to Vice
       President Mike Pence, shares with Andrea Mitchell insights as to
       how the special immigration visa processing system "was
       destroyed" under former President Trump by his top immigration
       adviser Stephen Miller. She says that Miller peddled "racist
       hysteria" to justify limiting the number of visa applicants who
       were approved, contributing to a back log that's stymieing the
       Biden administration's ability to process and evacuate Afghan
       allies at risk of retribution from the Taliban.

       Not saying there is a necessary correlation here, but as a
       reminder I'll ask the question again, who is ISIS exactly, do we

       they became ready recruits to the anti-Soviet cause.
