The Biden administration reportedly gave the Taliban a list of the names of United States citizens, green card holders, and other Afghan allies that needed to be allowed into the airport so they could be evacuated — a decision that sparked widespread outrage from officials and critics.
“The move, detailed to POLITICO by three U.S. and congressional officials, was designed to expedite the evacuation of tens of thousands of people from Afghanistan as chaos erupted in Afghanistan’s capital city last week after the Taliban seized control of the country,” Politico reported. “But the decision to provide specific names to the Taliban, which has a history of brutally murdering Afghans who collaborated with the U.S. and other coalition forces during the conflict, has angered lawmakers and military officials.”
A Pentagon official told Politico that the Biden administration effectively “put all those Afghans on a kill list.”
“It’s just appalling and shocking and makes you feel unclean,” the official added.

Amir Tsarfati, of Behold Israel, via Telegram, stated:
We will end this shocking day, with the utter American collapse, with startling data:
The Taliban now have access to $ 85 billion worth of looted American military equipment; To 75,000 military vehicles; 200 planes and helicopters, and the Taliban now have more Blackhawk helicopters than 85% of the world.
And worst of all: the Taliban has access to the biometric database, which contains the details, photos, fingerprints and more of all the Afghans who have worked with the U.S. military over the past 20 years. Meaning: They will be slaughtered.
The Times UK has also reported that the British Foreign Office forgot/abandoned documents at their embassy containing the contacts for Afghans who were working for them, as well as the information for locals who were applying for jobs at their embassy in Kabul.
