Secretary of State Antony Blinken did not deny that the U.S. must ask the Taliban for permission to get Americans out of Afghanistan during an interview over the weekend…

During the latest edition of CBS’s Face the Nation, host Maj. Elliott Garrett questioned Blinken over the administration’s disastrous handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal, which led to the Taliban taking control of the country and declaring victory from Kabul on August 15.

Garrett asked, “Someone in our audience might listen to you, Mr. Secretary, and say, ‘Oh, so we have to ask the Taliban for permission for American citizens to leave.’…?”

“They are in control of Kabul. That is the reality. That’s the reality that we have to deal with,” Blinken replied…

Blinken ignored warnings from diplomats and intelligence officers within the Department of State that a swift Kabul collapse was probable, insisting to the public that such an outcome was unlikely.

Does it concern you that the Taliban is currently in control of American citizens’ in Kabul? Share your thoughts and prayers in the comments below.

Father! Where are the David’s you have raised up in our nation to slay Goliath! It only takes one to push open the gateway to victory! Who has been called to destroy all the Taliban forces and take their booty(the weapons and equipment left). David, now is your time! Our prayers our behind you as You show yourself strong in GOD, the only GOD! Father, in Jesus name, your Kingdom come! Your will be done! Amen

What Blinken is focused on is how to avoid accountability. He is focused on the right words to try and pacify hard questions while staying away from the truth.
Can we, who see what is actually happening, be forthright about this? Blinken, Biden, Austin, etc. dropped the ball not once but an unacceptable number of times. Then when they picked it up, they willingly handed to the other team. When they realized what they had done, instead of tackling the enemy, they invited them in to play a friendly game of checkers.
Like they did during the election, they purposely “hid the facts”. Now all of the Afghan people, Americans, our allies, etc. are and will pay the price.
We have an administration who have absolutely no idea of how to run a country, both here and abroad. They are coddled, overpaid utopian misfits who stole the keys to a kingdom..and have already lost the keys but keep falsely reassuring people that they just misplaced them.
Lord God, we don’t deserve your mercy. We don’t deserve your forgiveness. But we now, we humble ourselves before you and ask for mercy. We ask to be restored in your presence and that through returning to You, that You would once again look upon us with Your favor.
Lord God, please rid our nation of failed leadership – of the people who constantly and habitually lie to us. We long to see leadership that is eager to serve you and the people of this nation. Leadership that tells us the truth. Amen.

Father God in Jesus name; We declare and decree your will will be done and your kingdom will arise in this horrible situation. We declare and decree we WILL see VICTORY over all evil enemies of GOD as this battle belongs to you and we Will see VICTORY in Jesus. We loose legions of the toughest angel armies of GOD to take down all the enemies in Jesus name
