Host Pete Hegseth spoke with a group of veterans who are banding together and mobilizing assets to get Americans and Afghan allies out of conflicts following the Taliban takeover of the country on Fox Nation’s “Modern Warriors: Afghan Extraction.”
The scenes in Afghanistan took the most tragic turn yet last Thursday when a suicide bombing outside the Kabul airport claimed the lives of 13 U.S. service members and 170 Afghans. Yet as the threats continue, evacuations are reportedly winding down ahead of the looming Aug. 31 deadline. President joe-biden” target=”_blank”>Joe Biden<

Michael G. Murray II, retired major in the U.S. Marine Corps, predicted the U.S. had severely injured its presence on the world stage in the seemingly misguided and unfruitful evacuation efforts.
“When the crap hits the fan, they’re watching us give up,” Murray II said of other global actors.
Golsteyn added he was leery of the Biden administration reportedly having coordinated with the Taliban in trying to get vulnerable individuals through security checkpoints.
“It sounds like it’s, to me, is an act of desperation, maybe borne out of necessity, that there’s not a tremendous amount of good options,” he said. “And we are in the situation that we are in. That seems to be a very risky decision with little probability of payoff.”
