Biden administration will house 2,500 Afghan interpreters at Fort Lee in Virginia when they start evacuations following months of delays and an increase in Taliban threats
2021-07-20
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • The initial group of evacuees include 700 interpreters and their families

  • The Afghans, who aided the US military at their own risk, will be allowed to finish their visa application processes from the base outside of Richmond, Virginia

  • They are just a small portion of the roughly 18,000 special immigrant visa applicants hoping to be airlifted out of Afghanistan as the Taliban gains ground

  • About 53,000 family members of these interpreters are also looking for rescue

  • The update comes after Biden said interpreters could be airlifted to 'third countries' to wait out their visa application process in safety if they chose to

  • Operation Allies Refuge was announced after bipartisan pressure to help

#1  And their families?

And how many will decide they value Islam over the (belated) hospitality of Americans?

And how many will complain about being housed in a fort named for a Confederate?
