Please don't make me do the math!
Pentagon Press Sec John Kirby ( today ) : "Of the 2,000 over the last 24 hours" who have been evacuated from Afghanistan "nearly 300 of them were Americans."

IMO, this " Fall of Kabul" has been handled so poorly by the U.S. government, as evidenced by the initial order to American citizens to " shelter in place".... THEN the order to evacuate to the airport. ( But you're on your own )...kinda like "tag...you're it!" Followed by the clearly evident evacuation of 30 times the number of Afghani refugees to U.S. citizens. It just isn't making a bit of sense to me!
Right? If diplomacy with the Taliban is the only way for people to run the gauntlet to the airport, as stated by officials in the recent presser, and Americans are not getting through -- who are and why?
