[@jdmmg4904]

"The goal is to use Afghanistan to wash money out of the tax bases of the US and Europe through Afghanistan and back into the hands of a transnational security elite. The goal is an endless war, not a successful war". Julian Assange said it in 2011.

[@imthatninja7669]

Facts

[@kaorikato7376]

Assange was absolutely correct. Unfortunately as tragic as the refugees are they do not represent a majority of uneducated Afghan population that was tired of incessant corruption of Ghani Regime of whose legitimacy has been disputed due to electoral fraud. Unfortunately there were no good guys in this fight as every side is dirty here.

[@dvk7277]

I am not American but I would say part of it has to do with humanitarianism and global imagery in the face of a foreign crisis that the Americans help propagate. However the reason why America isn't helping their own people (much like other countries like Canada) in the same way has more to do with the level of Capitalism (Even if Americans would help other Americans out of poverty, dire straits etc there would be jealousy and hatred towards those that got free handouts while others work hard just to survive pay cheque to pay cheque) and Socialism (just not enough Americans -the people- willing to help out other Americans). So basically too much Capitalism, not enough Socialism. Just my opinion though.

[@28ebdh3udnav]

@@dvk7277 that's nothing to do with socialism or capitalism. My issue is that the same people who help the Afghan refugees escape, is willing not willing to help veterans here. They have to go through a long process that takes years and then still, may get denied help. .y father for example, he wanted the VA go help but due to bureaucracy, he died before he could receive anything.

Not sure how much of that is true but since I deal with fraudsters daily I can see people try to infiltrate these processes.

Majority are meeting up with someone they know like a family member or friend. More family member(s) than friends. After they get situated from the plane ride. Afghan children will attend public school when they can. Working unsure but I have heard some refugees working already and all in the food industry.
