Taliban violates women’s rights, flaunts Biden’s guns, threatens US Homeland

Three years ago, 13 U.S. service members were killed during Joe Biden’s botched Afghan pullout. He never mentions them, their grieving families or the changes that have taken place since they made the ultimate sacrifice.

It is now illegal for Afghan women to appear outside of the home unless they are fully veiled, Afghanistan’s supreme leader announced last week, according to the Associated Press. Women are also prohibited from talking in public – their voices are banned under the new decree.

“A woman’s voice is deemed intimate and so should not be heard singing, reciting, or reading aloud in public,” the AP reported.

Neither the Biden-Harris administration nor the Harris-Walz campaign have commented about the current horrors facing Afghan women, whom they abandoned.

The Taliban certainly have the means to defend their supreme leader’s edicts from any opposition, foreign or domestic. Biden saw to that. Thanks to his inept and deadly withdraw, the Taliban is swimming in high-tech American weaponry – $80 billion worth, to be exact – including 176 artillery pieces, 64,363 belt-fed machine guns, 126,295 handguns and of course 358,530 select-fire assault weapons – real assault weapons. Most of the rifles were equipped with high-end optics. Many had IR lasers, which aren’t much good without night-vision gear. But Biden left behind 16,035 sets of NVGs as well.

Earlier this month, the Taliban showed off Biden’s weaponry during a parade held at Bagram Airfield, which celebrated their third year in power. However, not all of the weapons were showcased. The Taliban sold some of their newfound arsenal to Russia, China, Iran and North Korea.

Homeland threat

Last year, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents released an Afghan terrorist who was on the FBI’s terror watchlist after he was caught illegally crossing the U.S.-Mexico border through California. The terrorist was allowed to post a $12,000 bond and disappear because officials weren’t completely sure he was the same person wanted by the FBI.

Nowadays, these type of intelligence failures are common. In June, the Department of Homeland Security identified 400 terrorists who crossed the southern border illegally but admitted it did not know the whereabouts of at least 50 of these hardened killers. The administration declined to comment, which led frustrated members of the House Homeland Security Committed to subpoena DHS for information on all potential terrorists who have crossed into this country illegally.

During the Republican National Convention, Senator Tim Scott, R-S.C., warned the crowd about the threat foreign terrorists pose to the homeland.

“We have men from Yemen, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Lebanon crossing our southern border,” Scott said, according to FOX News. “I believe we have sleeper cells in this nation as a result of Joe Biden.”

Senator Scott did not mention the thousands of military-age males from communist China – at least a division, so far – who cross our border with impunity.

The FBI and civilian intelligence experts have repeatedly warned that terrorists may be plotting an attack here in the United States that would be similar to the 10/7 massacre in Israel – an attack on civilian targets rather than government or military installations.

Once again, the Biden-Harris administration has not addressed these concerns. They remain tone-deaf and focused solely on disarming law-abiding Americans.

On Sunday, Vice President Kamala Harris posted a message on social media that’s become a frequent theme for the administration: “Congress must renew the assault weapon ban.” The post included the graphic: “Ban Assault Weapons.”

Joe Biden hasn’t posted anything on social media for four days, but he spent last week on vacation in California and will spend this week on vacation in Delaware.

Hyperbole and hypocrisy

If events in Israel and Ukraine have taught us anything, it is that any organized attack on civilian targets will be horrific, especially if the populace is disarmed.

Biden doesn’t seem to care. He has denounced American ARs as “weapons of war” and called for a ban, but he has never once mentioned the 358,530 select-fire rifles he gifted to an actual terrorist state – all of which, by definition, ended up in the wrong hands.

While Biden naps on a beach chair and Harris hides from the corporate media, the Taliban and other terrorist groups are making ready for something. Everyone in the intelligence community predicts this, including the FBI director. It’s only a matter of time.

American arms have served as a deterrent for invasion, as we saw during World War II, and may soon be used to defend our homeland from actual terrorists. Only a fool would seek to disarm us.
