The US commanders in charge of evacuation abandoned dozens of American citizens at the gates of Kabul airport amid a chaotic rush to leave Afghanistan, US war correspondent and former special forces soldier Michael Yon told RT.
On Sunday, White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain was forced to acknowledge that around 100 Americans still remained in the turbulent country a week after the Biden administration’s August 31 deadline to get everybody out expired.
Former special forces soldier-turned-journalist Michael Yon, who was among the volunteers helping to airlift Americans out of Afghanistan, has shared with RT some disturbing details of how holders of US passports were left behind by their own military.

WNU Editor: American war correspondent Michael Yon gave me the heads-up on the above story where he is interviewed. His email to me (that I have posted below) is a sad commentary on how U.S. media now covers wars and conflicts ....
.... Russia Times just called… They are still on the story, naturally. CNN knows how to reach me. CNN carrying water for the regime.
Am back in my hometown of Winter Haven, Florida, after more than 10 years away. Not much has changed. Radio station 98.3 still playing the same much. Got grits with breakfast. The waitress asked ME if I wanted milk.
Very busy preparing to head back to the Afghan area.
I remember when Radio Free America were the good guys. Now it’s Russia Times reporting accurately on Afghanistan...
I personally do not trust RT when it comes to covering domestic Russian news. But on Afghanistan they were weeks/months ahead of U.S. reporting on what was happening on the ground in Afghanistan.

Radio Free America, RT and Goebbels
Connoisseurs of propaganda will tell the truth, if it is damaging to the other side. It is less work to tell the truth, does great damage and the other side has to expend a great deal of energy lying to cover up the truth.
With relatively few exceptions, we literally do not have an objective media in the US. Even the leading social media companies are essentially becoming puppets of the state and enemies of any smaller companies/websites that do not adhere to the party line. With a few more exceptions, the same can even be said of other Western media. The BBC used to be at least a decent alternative to US news outlets, but no longer. The danger of this trend CANNOT be overstated. Without an objective media, we no longer have access to actual (independent) news, and the few exceptions are simply labeled "sensationist" (eg The Daily Mail) or "extremist" and ignored, if not outright persecuted. It's not hard to figure out what's coming down the pike sooner rather than later. And when it does get here, we can't expect any trustworthy news sources to even acknowledge the fact.
When saying MSM sucks, you need to give your sources of news, info to show where you find The Truth
No you do not. MSM is understood to be the ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, WaPo, NYT, LAT, Time, Newsweek and that ilk.
You want to know where others get the truth outside of the MSM, so you can take potshots at it instead of taking on the impossible task of defending the indefensible MSM.
Take "The View". It has the deplorable Joy Behar. I do not have to listen to her for 30 years to know virtually everything coming out her mouth is ignorant, partisan and wrong. Her and all the other clique-ish, don't have a brain liberals are calling ivermectin horse paste. You can get invermectin in a pill. The US State Department recommends it for refugees and others coming from Afghanistan or the Middle East.
If you stupid fucks keep it up much longer we can tell all those people we are giving them horse paste or maybe they will come up with that result themselves.
Japan is using to to treat COVID. Are (lousy fuck @ 2:108) going to claim the Japanese are ignorant, backwards people , who don't know what they are doing?
