This document summarizes the history behind America's retreat and defeat in Afghanistan. It discusses how America initially went to Afghanistan to fight terrorism after 9/11 but its mission changed to nation-building and promoting progressive social policies like LGBTQ rights, which alienated many Afghans. It also argues that America betrayed its Afghan allies by withdrawing support and leaving behind weapons for the Taliban. The document lists extensive military equipment provided to the Taliban and criticizes America for abandoning its commitments and allies over its history, hurting its credibility.
5. As recently as the 8th of July, U.S. President Biden was adamant
that the Taliban would not be able to overrun Afghanistan because
Kabul had a well-funded and well-trained military.
9. who is better trained, better equipped and more competent in
terms of conducting war."
10. It only took the Taliban five
weeks to prove Biden wrong
and to expose the hypocrisy of
America's 20 years of
"constructive engagement"
in Afghanistan.
12. What began as a war against terrorism,
targeting Al Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan…
13. changed into “nation building” - promoting radical feminism,
LGBTQ gay agenda and flying the rainbow flag from the US
embassy in Kabul.
14. Many Afghans who had welcomed the Americans as liberators in
2001 grew to resent the promotion of immorality and perversion.
15. In 2008 American troops confiscated, threw away, and burned
God’s Word at Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan.
16. The Bibles were written in the Pashto and Dari languages
and the Defense Department was concerned the books
might somehow be used to convert Afghans.
17. The incident became public in 2009. Lt. Col. Mark Wright told
CNN such religious outreach could endanger American troops and
civilians because Afghanistan is a “devoutly Muslim country.”
But there was another reason the Bibles were confiscated.
Military rules forbid troops from proselytizing in the country.
18. So why not just collect the Bibles and send them back to the same
church that sent them here in the United States?
The military admitted in an interview that they considered doing
that. But they worried the church would send them to another
organization in Afghanistan, and that would give the impression
the Bibles were distributed by the U.S. government !
19. The month of June is recognized as
(LGBTI) Pride Month. The United States
respects the dignity & equality of LGBTI
people & celebrates their contributions
to the society. We remain committed to
supporting civil rights of minorities,
including LGBTI persons. #Pride2021
#PrideMonth
20. One of president Biden’s earliest initiatives after taking office was
to send the State Department a strongly worded memo “to ensure
that United States diplomacy and foreign assistance promote and
protect the human rights of LGBTQI+ persons.””.
22. When the US president proclaimed June as Lesbian, Gay,
Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Pride Month, he declared
proudly that “Nearly 14 percent of my 1,500 agency appointees
identify as LGBTQ+”
23. and he gave a special shout-out to Secretary Pete and to Rachel
Levine, “the first openly transgender person to be confirmed by
the Senate.”
24. No wonder the acting US ambassador in Kabul believed that
in-your-face defiance of Islamic values was the best way to
promote respect for America in the Islamic Republic of
Afghanistan.
25. But how many Afghan soldiers saw the rainbow flag waving over
the US$800 million embassy compound and said, “I am proud to
be fighting shoulder to shoulder with Joe Biden’s gays”? Probably
none. Probably many Afghanis considered it to be one step short
of treading on a copy of the Qu’ran.
31. Considering that the Afghan National Army (ANA) lost over 66,000
men in combat fighting against the Taliban, it is neither honest nor
fair to claim that they were not willing to fight to defend their own
country!
32. With the US closing their Bagram air base and withdrawing their
logistical support, the supply chain, communications
and air support essential for the
33. Afghan National Army was terminated and collapse became
inevitable. The US left behind vast Quantities of high-tech
weapons which have now fallen into the hands of the Taliban.
34. The USA gave the Taliban:
-2,000 Armoured Vehicles
Including Humvees and MRAP’s
35. -75,989 Total Vehicles:
FMTV, M35, Ford Rangers, Ford F350, Ford Vans,

44. Who can trust a government that has such a long trail of
treachery, betraying not only their allies, but their own troops into
the hands of some of the most merciless Marxists and, in this
case, Jihadists?
45. “Should you help the wicked and love those who hate the
Lord? Therefore, the wrath of the Lord is upon you.”
2 Chronicles 19:2
47. Veteran Angolan Freedom Fighter,
Jonas Savimbi, the leader of UNITA,
observed:
“It is better to be America’s
enemy than America’s friend.
If you are her enemy,
you will probably be bought.
If you are America’s friend
you will certainly be sold.”
I was a guest at Jonas Savimbi’s
UNITA headquarters in Jamba
in Free Angola.
48. It was 1986. Jonas Savimbi was by no means anti-American. In
fact, he loved American history and regularly would be quoting
from George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison.
He looked up to America as a city on a hill, an example of Faith
and freedom that he hoped to emulate in Angola. However, he
was referring to the US State Department and its trail of betrayal.
50. Jonas Savimbi leaned across the breakfast table and asked: “Do
you know why there hasn’t been a revolution in America for over
200 years?” His guests were at loss to know how to answer the
question. The UNITA leader answered his own question: “The is
no America embassy in America!” Everyone laughed and some
squirmed in their seats.
52. The involvement of American embassies in inciting, fostering and
even organising coup d’états and revolutions around the world are
well documented.
53. Examples include the CIA Operation AJAX which orchestrated the
1953 coup d’etat overthrowing the democratically elected Prime
Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh in Iran. Oil companies were
heavily involved in financing this street protests and buying of key
leaders in Iran.
56. In 1954, the CIA overthrew the President of Guatemala Jacobo
Arbenz to establish a dictatorship which favoured the American
multinational: American United Fruit Company.
60. The 1963 assassination of South
Vietnamese leader Ngo Dinh Dien was
orchestrated by South Vietnamese
generals who requested CIA’s support
to bring about the coup d’etat.
62. The 1964 coup d’etat in Brazil, including the street protests which
ousted President Joao Goulard and replaced him with Brazilian
Chief of Staff Humberto Castello Branco, whose forces were
supplied with non-American weapons.
63. National Security archives declassified documents confirm that
President Lyndon Johnson planned this Brazilian coup with his
advisors. The dictatorship managed to survive in Brazil until 1985.
65. These and many other regime changes are documented in John
Jacob Nuttar’s book The CIA’s Black Ops: Covert Action, Foreign
Policy and Democracy published in 2000.
67. In 1977, South African journalist Aida Parker documented in the
Citizen newspaper, that the American Embassy Reading Room in
Soweto was deliberately subversive, stocking books, pamphlets,
magazines and films of Vladimir Lenin, Mao Tse Tung, Karl Marx,
Che Guevare, Fidel Castro and other Marxist revolutionaries.
69. I met Captain Eugene (Red) McDaniel of the US Navy and read his
book Scars and Stripes – The True Story of One Man’s Courage
Facing Death as a POW in Vietnam.
74. As Founder and President of the American Defence Institute (ADI)
he sought to document the trail of betrayal of American Prisoners
Of War or Missing In Action’s abandoned, not just in Vietnam,
Cambodia and Laos, but in North Korea and China after the
Korean War and in the Soviet Union after both the First and
Second World Wars. He also introduced me to the book Kiss the
Boys Goodbye – How the United States Betrayed Its Own POWs.
76. Lt. Col. Philip Corso, who had once served on National Security Council
staff under President Dwight Eisenhower, testified to the Senate Select
Committee on POW/MIA affairs, in 1992, that it was “a deliberate policy”
to list as dead many of those American GIs who were known to be
captured alive by the North Koreans during the Korean Conflict.
Altogether some 8,177 US servicemen were unaccounted for from the
Korean War.
77. In 1955 President Eisenhower decided that the unaccounted-for POWs
be declared dead. Col. Corso also testified that there were journalists
who accepted money from the CIA to report the party line and ignore the
reports on American POWs shipped to the Soviet Union. “The fate of our
prisoners fell through the cracks. It wasn’t an accident. It was policy.”
81. Senator Robert Smith (R-NH) concluded: “A large number of
American servicemen at the end of the war…left behind were sent
to communist China and to the Soviet Union. Internal documents
and statements made at the time also show that our government
believed that these men were still alive in captivity and until only a
few months ago had kept that reality from the American people.
82. It covered up what it knew through a pattern of denial, misleading
statements and, in some cases, lies and by doing so with regard
to the Korean conflict, it broke its commitment with the people who
put on their uniform to fight for the freedoms and protection that
we and our allies enjoy today.”
84. General Dmitri Volkogomov of the Soviet Red Army testified
before the US Senate Select Committee in 1992 that American
soldiers who had been POWs of Germany and found themselves
on the territory of the USSR at the end of World War 2 were
employed in Stalin’s GULAG labour camps and, on many cases,
were summarily executed by the NKVD.
86. They had also uncovered files of the interrogation of 49 American
pilots who had been captured in North Korea and were held
prisoner with 3,000 others near the Russian border. Also, US
defectors from the Vietnam War were relocated for propaganda
activity, with the agreement of the Peoples Republics of China
and Vietnam.
88. Many of the 22,000 American prisoners of war in camps
“liberated” by the Soviets during World War 2 were made slaves in
Soviet GULAG labour camps. He knew of 119 Americans who
were believed to be either spies or collaborationists who were
executed. At least six American prisoners from the Korean War
were held at special camps in the Soviet Union where they were
interrogated and held for eight years and then shot.
90. General Volkogomov said that his own father had been liquidated
under Stalin and that he has still not found any record of the
circumstances. He could not rule out the possibility that there had
been even more mass transits of American Korean War and
Vietnamese War servicemen to the USSR, but most of those
records are still to be located.
92. John Noble wrote the book I Found God in Soviet Russia printed
in 1959 and I was a Slave in Russia printed in 1961. American
born US citizen John Noble was working in a camera factory in
Dresden, 1945.
93. He survived the 14 and 15 February 1945 fire-bombing by the
RAF and USAAF and then, together with his father, was arrested
by the Soviet Red Army occupation forces and incarcerated at the
NKDV special camp number 2 located on the former Buchenwald
concentration campsite.
94. The Soviet COMESA appropriated the Noble family’s PRACTICA
camera factory and stock of quality cameras. In 1950 John was
sentenced to a further 15 years in the Soviet GULAG system in
Siberia. As John was transferred across the Soviet Union, he saw
a message written by American Major Frank Roberts (who was
recorded as Missing In Action during WW 2).
95. John Noble ended up at Vorkuta GULAG in the northernmost Urals, in
Siberia. Noble managed to smuggle out a postcard which led to the
intervention, in 1955, by President Eisenhower and brought about his
release.
97. The GULAG Study by the Pentagon concluded that American
servicemen were imprisoned in the former Soviet Union. After ignoring
volumes of documentation for over 50 years, the Pentagon finally
admitted that it had been a matter of policy to suppress reports of U.S.
POWs and MIAs incarcerated in the Soviet Union and Red China.
99. Col. Simpson (USAF) revealed that while serving as an Air Force
attaché at the US embassy in Hong Kong, he learned from Russian
defectors that had personally witnessed hundreds of American
servicemen from the Korean War being transferred by the Chinese to
the Soviets at the Chinese/Russian border crossing point at Manchoulai.
Simpson had filed a High Priority report to superiors and knew that it
reached the hands of Secretary of State John Foster Dulles.
101. During the administration of President Ronald Reagan, Simpson's
original report was retrieved from the dark hole it had been tossed into
decades before. Col. Simpson said that he had been told by a senior
member of the Eisenhower Administration that President Eisenhower
had concluded that “nothing could be done” to retrieve the men from
their captivity and so the reports were buried.
103. Reports have also been
unearthed of American
soldiers, who had been
fighting against the
Bolsheviks at the
conclusion of
World War 1,
as part of a secret U.S.
military expedition to
Archangel, who had fallen
into the hands of the Red
Army. The government of
President Woodrow
Wilson suppressed those
facts and kept the plight of
these American soldiers
from the electorate.
104. “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked;
for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap."
Galatians 6:7
106. Another person I had contact
with was US Senator
Jeremiah Denton, who wrote
the book When Hell was in
Session. In 1965 Commander
Denton, piloting an A-6
Intruder jet,
was shot down over
North Vietnam and captured.
107. Denton was held prisoner for almost eight years, severely tortured
as a POW in Hanoi, Vietnam.
108. During a televised press conference, in 1966, he used the
opportunity to send a distress message by repeatedly blinking his
eyes in Morse code spelling out T-O-R-T-U-R-E.
111. When questioned about his support for the US war effort in Vietnam, he
replied: "Whatever the position of my government is, I fully support it.
Whatever the position of the government, I believe in it. Yes, sir. I am a
member of that government and it is my job to support it and I will as
long as I live." He was severely tortured for that resistance. As the
senior member of the U.S. POWs, he was particularly targeted for
special treatment by his tormentors.
114. Senator Denton set up and chaired the Senate Judiciary
Subcommittee on Security and Terrorism which exposed Soviet
KGB communist control of the African National Congress terrorist
group in South Africa.
115. Bartholomew Moru Hlapane and his wife were assassinated by
ANC gunmen in their Soweto home on December 16,1982,
nine months after Hlapane testified before the United States
Senate committee on Security and Terrorism.
122. Through America’s Ambassador
to Romania, I met
Michel Sturdza, former
Romanian Foreign Minister, who
authored Betrayal by Rulers.
Prince Sturdza documents the
pattern of treachery that cannot
be explained by folly, stupidity, or
accident. He indicts U.S.
Presidents Woodrow Wilson,
Franklin Delano Roosevelt and
Lyndon Johnson as
treacherous,
not only to their Allies,
but to
western Christian civilisation.
123. FDR and Winston Churchill's betrayal of millions of Christians in
Eastern Europe to Stalin's brutal Soviet Union at the Teheran
conference, at the Yalta conference and at Potsdam were some of
the greatest blows against freedom in the history of the world.
124. “Who plan evil things in their hearts;
they continually gather together for war.”
Psalm 140:2
139. I also have the book Ally Betrayed: the Republic of China by David
Rowe. Dr. Rowe professor of political science of Yale University and a
specialist on Far East History, Politics and International Relations. As
the leading American authority on China, he documented how the U.S.
government betrayed free, nationalist China into the hands of Mao’s
brutal Red China. The betrayal of the Republic of China into the hands
of the Chinese Communist Party continues to have disastrous
consequences to this day.
140. “In politics, nothing happens by accident.
If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.”
Franklin D. Roosevelt
141.
142. "…Should you
help the wicked
and love those
who hate
the Lord?
Therefore
the wrath
of the Lord
is upon you.”
2 Chronicles 19:2
147. Another book on my shelf: Ally Betrayed – Nicaragua with the Foreword
by U.S. Ambassador Beryl Smith and Postscript by U.S. Ambassador
Turner Shelton. It quotes Lieutenant General Gordon Sumner
148. "Nicaragua was subverted from within and attacked from without.
The record is quite clear in this regard. The role of the Carter
administration in this shabby affair…The Carter strategy of
polarisation using ‘Human Rights’ as the operative principle has
succeeded in destroying the strategic position of the United States
and the Caribbean Basin as well as the Western Hemisphere.”
150. Nicaragua, a strategic country in Central America was lost as a
member of the free world community of the nations and its
democratically elected government overthrown by Marxist
campaign of sabotage and terrorism which were supported by
151. "the deliberate political destabilisation of this freely elected government
by the U.S. Administration headed by President Carter in 1979. The
politics of deceit adopted by the U.S. Department of State and the
massive Cuban support given to the Sandinista Communist terrorists
were largely ignored by the U.S. media. The triumph of the Sandinista
terrorist movement in Nicaragua encouraged Fidel Castro and Soviets
to assist further revolutionary upheavals in Guatemala, El Salvador and
Honduras.”
152. Wall Street and the Bankrolling
of the Bolshevik Revolution
153. Professor Anthony Sutton, a research fellow at the Hoover Institution,
Stanford University, wrote: Wall Street and the Bolshevik Revolution
which documents the shocking links between some New York bankers
and many revolutionaries in what became the Soviet Union.
155. Professor Sutton also wrote the book The Best Enemy Money
Can Buy documenting how the Soviet Union and Red China were
built up with Western Technology and aid.
157. Prime Minister Ian Smith
of Rhodesia declared:
"We were never beaten by our
enemies, we were betrayed by
our friends."
The title of his biography is:
The Great Betrayal.
The betrayal of Rhodesia to
Mugabe’s Marxist Zimbabwe
continues to have disastrous
repercussions to this day.
158. “And have no
fellowship with
the unfruitful works
of darkness,
but rather
expose them.”
Ephesians 5:11
160. President Herbert Hoover,
America's 31st president, spent
20 years researching and
writing a monumental
documentation of U.S. State
Department treachery.
The title of his book:
Freedom Betrayed:
Herbert Hoover’s Secret History
of the Second World War
and its Aftermath.
161. President Herbert Hoover documents the treacherous
policies of Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration
162. in betraying the Christians of Central and Eastern Europe into the
hands of Stalin’s brutal Soviet Union.
163. “…for with the same measure that you use,
it will be measured back to you.”
Luke 6:38
165. Hoover’s Freedom Betrayed is
a 900-page encyclopaedia of
uncomfortable truths that
seriously challenge the
traditional views of American
President Franklin D. Roosevelt
and British Prime Minister
Winston Churchill. Herbert
Hoover documents that F.D.R.’s
foreign policies were not merely
disastrous and catastrophic,
but treacherous.
166. His shocking exposé has proved to become one of the key
historical documents of the mid-20th century, a searing
indictment of F.D.R. and the politicians around whom who
lied prodigiously
to conceal their nefarious agenda.
167. “The words of his mouth were smoother than butter, but
war was in his heart; His words were softer than oil, yet
they were drawn swords.”
Psalm 55:21
169. The Shah’s Story by Shah
Mohammad Reza Pahlavi,
the last Shah of Iran,
170. documents the treacherous role of the U.S. State Department
under President Jimmy Carter which led to the Islamic Revolution
of 11 February 1979
171. and the end of over 2,500 years of continuous Persian monarchy
since the founding of the Persian Empire by Cyrus the Great.
172. During the last Shah’s 38-year rule, Iran went through a series of
economic, social and political reforms which transformed that
country into a global power with its national income rising 423
times over.
173. By 1977, Iran’s military had become the world's 5th strongest
armed forces. Iran’s economic growth rate exceeded that of
United States, Great Britain and France.
177. On my first visit to
United States of
America in January
1988, I heard
Col. Oliver North
describe how he had
time and again been
commanded to lead
his Marines to take a
position in Vietnam,
only to then be
ordered to withdraw
from that position. To
then be told to retake
that position, which
by then was far more
effectively defended.
They would succeed
the second time at
greater loss of life.
178. Only to be ordered to withdraw from that position. And then the
third time be instructed to retake that same position, which now
was further entrenched, with concrete, barb wire and more
devastating weaponry. At greater loss of life U.S. Marines would
succeed in taking that position a third time, only to be ordered to
withdraw from that position again.
179. I remember the horror
and shock I felt listening
to this first-hand
testimony of the criminal
short-sightedness,
or malicious treachery, of
U.S. government officials
towards their own
armed forces.
180. Our Creator and Eternal Judge
will Bring Injustice to Light
181. “Woe to her who is rebellious and polluted, to the oppressing
city! She has not obeyed His voice, she has not received
correction; she has not trusted in the Lord, she has not
drawn near to her God. Her princes in her midst are roaring
lions; her judges are evening wolves that leave not a bone till
morning.
182. Her prophets are insolent, treacherous people; her priests
have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the
Law. The Lord is righteous in her midst, He will do no
unrighteousness. Every morning He brings His justice to
light; He never fails, but the unjust knows no shame.”
Zephaniah 3:1-5
184. During my 1st visit to America in 1988, I met with a political leader
who commented: "You must understand that there is some
method in the madness. For every ally we betray we get a whole
lot of new restaurants to choose from here in Washington, DC!"
185. There standing on the street corner we looked over and we saw a
Chinese restaurant, a Vietnamese restaurant and a Hungarian
restaurant. I looked at him to see if this was some kind of sick
joke. He gave me a bitterly frustrated look. He grieved that this
was a truth spoken in jest.
186. “But I say to you that for every idle word men may speak,
they will give account of it in the day of judgment. For by
your words you will be justified and by your words
you will be condemned.”
Matthew 12:36-37
187. A Policy of Appeasing Enemies
and Betraying Friends
188. “While they promise them liberty, they themselves
are slaves of corruption…” 2 Peter 2:19
189. No wonder our friend Jonas Savimbi had declared many years
ago in Angola: "It is better to be America’s enemy than America's
friend. If you are her enemy, you will probably be bought. If you
are America's friend you will certainly be sold."
190. "So, I sought for a man among them who would make a wall,
and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I
should not destroy it...”
Ezekiel 22:30
192. Many American people are good people, but they need to be
aware that the Deep State, the Swamp, has the blood of many
innocents on their hands. And those who will treacherously betray
their friends and allies and others who trusted in them, who could
even abandon their own military in Marxist hell holes and lie to
cover it up, cannot be trusted.
193. “Who will rise up
for Me
against the evildoers?
Who will stand up
for Me
against the workers
of iniquity?”
Psalm 94:16
