Rambo left behind enemy lines in Afghanistan.

"Volunteers receive images and videos every day of Afghans, including children, executed at the hands of the Taliban"

Months after the US president abandons our allies in Afghanistan, the struggle is still ongoing to evacuate people, including one codenamed "Rambo".


"
Two months ago, Rambo, the code name for a commander in the Afghan National Army’s Special Operations Command, and seven other commandos were kidnapped by the Taliban. A video of the commandos’ execution was sent to members of Operation North Star, an all-volunteer organization working tirelessly to secure safe haven for thousands of Afghan allies abandoned by the State Department in post-withdrawal Afghanistan.
After watching the video hundreds of times in search of Rambo, volunteers “assumed the worst,” according to Ben Owen, a former U.S. Army infantryman and president of Flanders Fields, a nonprofit that raises funds for evacuation organizations Operation North Star and Task Force Argo.
Two weeks ago, Flanders Fields received a request to acquire a safe house in Afghanistan for an unidentified high-value target. An hour later, Owen received a pixelated photo of a familiar Afghan man being embraced by his family members on the safe house floor. Rambo had escaped Taliban captivity."

So, we should have stayed in Afghanistan?

For how much longer? How many troops?

The point is that private citizens and other countries are quietly evacuating people. The Western press runs from this.

Understood. It would be nice to hear more about this kind of thing, though I'm not sure if that's by design to try to avoid drawing attention to the efforts.

A valid point. Things can be found out by looking at foreign news sites. They still have some troops there.
