Sara Carter: ‘I can’t tell you how many Americans are going to be left behind’ in Afghanistan
By Jenny Goldsberry
While Secretary of State Antony Blinken assured the nation over the weekend that the Taliban is committed to allowing safe travel outside Afghanistan, Sara Carter has the real story. She received video evidence of the Taliban violently threatening Americans attempting to leave the country. The American family in the video sent the clip directly to Rep. Mike Garcia (R-CA) who shared it with Carter. She shared the story with Steve Hilton from Fox News’ The Next Revolution on Sunday.
“They were trapped at Taliban checkpoint,” Carter said, describing the video. “They were trying to get through the checkpoint that this White House said people would be able to get through to get to the airport for evacuation.” Instead, “they had guns pointed at their faces, they were told that they were not allowed to pass through.”
“It’s horrific,” Carter went on. “I can’t tell you how many Americans are going to be left behind.” According to Carter, it will all be because of President Biden’s ineptitude.
Carter spoke to this reporter Monday, and the American family, which had two small children with them, has still not made it out of Kabul. Other Americans she, along with other civilians, government employees and a number of Congressional officials have been trying to get out of the country remain behind. Moreover, thousands of SIV approved and P2 visa applicants have also been abandoned and at the mercy of the Taliban.
This morning two top Afghan military commanders were hung in public from the top of a steeple, according to several U.S. government officials and military personnel that spoke to Carter. Carter received a picture of the incident but is not posting it due to the violent nature of the photo.

“Many people are being left behind, we are abandoning our American and Afghanis who have worked for us, all this because of Joe Biden and the ineptitude of his administration,” Carter tweeted following the show.
Meanwhile, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) and Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) among others joined Garcia in the network of advocates fighting to get people out of the country. Carter is a part of it herself. The group has been knick named the “digital Dunkirk.” The Dunkirk reference is based on an operation during World War II, where a group of 800 vessels helped rescue 338,226 allies from the Germans.
As a result, she, along with many other civilians and government officials connected by their past experiences in Afghanistan, have been working to identify those most vulnerable to retribution from the Taliban. They are working together to not only identify those left behind, but they are also seeking options so those most vulnerable can find safe passage from the war-torn region.

Kamala Harris Promises Michigan a Palestinian State
Follow Steve Postal: @HebraicMosaic
———
This weekend in Michigan, Kamala Harris pledged that as president she would “do everything in my power to achieve…a two-state solution where Palestinians will have the right to self-determination…” This follows earlier comments from Harris that she had hoped to capitalize on Yahya Sinwar’s death to “work towards a two-state solution.”
Meanwhile, Palestinian leadership continues to signal that such a state would be a mere vehicle to commit genocide against the Jews.
For example, PA President Mahmoud Abbas chose to fly to Qatar to pay respects to two sons of the late Hamas arch-terrorist Ismail Haniyeh. He “conveyed his condolences” to the sons, and “re-called [Haniyeh’s] virtues on the path of the Palestinian national struggle,” according to Official PA TV News. In other words, Abbas admitted that he sympathizes with Hamas’ genocidal aims and actions.
And Fatah terrorists in Gaza are also praising Hamas. These terrorists recently posted a video showing the organization making explosives to commemorate Hamas’ October 7, 2023 attack. A crate of mortars in the video is labelled “The Al-Aqsa Flood Battle – Oct. 5, 2024.” Additionally, the walls of the compound have signs and graffiti on them stating: “The Al-Aqsa Flood Battle – engineering and production branch – Al-Aqsa [Martyrs’] Brigades, Al-Amoudi Division – Oct. 5, 2024;” “A free and Arab Palestine;” “We will continue to attack;” and “The occupation will pass soon – Oct. 5, 2024.” As Israel continues to smash Hamas in Gaza, it is evident who Fatah is siding with.
The members of Fatah in Judea and Samaria have a similar jihadist mentality. Fatah Movement Central Committee member Tawfiq Tirawi argued that the PA should encourage, not arrest, terrorists: “My personal opinion is that the arrest of these young people is a mistake. Instead, we must contain this situation, contain these young people and train them…We have young people full of patriotic enthusiasm to fight [Israel], but they lack training and experience, and therefore they must receive training.” Additionally, Tirawi called for Fatah to “clean our house of collaborators,” presumably, those that engage in security cooperation with Israel as required under the Oslo Accords.
And lastly, the Palestinian Authority criticized Iran’s recent strike against Israel…because it didn’t inflict mortal damage on the Jewish State. PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations Mahmoud Al-Habbash lamented Iran’s attack on Israel as “not reach[ing] a level that could threaten Israel and [did] not cause damage that would perhaps prevent Israel from continuing its aggression.” A columnist in the PA-run official PA daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida website lamented that Iran’s recent strike against Israel did not cause enough damage, and that it “did not kill even one Zionist.” In contrast, the columnist praised a shooting attack that killed seven Israelis as a “self-sacrificing operation.”
So when Kamala Harris continues to voice support for a Palestinian state, who is she supporting and to what ends?
