How do you funnel money to the terrorists without letting their victims get hold of it? The answer is that you pay secret ransoms or send “humanitarian aid”. Withholding money from terror victims to pay terror bosses looks tacky, so just turn the money into ransom for American hostages or medicine for crying local children.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAnd so despite the fact that the Taliban negotiate with all faiths other than their own in bad faith, the Biden administration is still negotiating with the terrorists who broke every previous deal.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EA week after Thanksgiving, some of Biden's boys from the State Department, USAID, the Treasury Department, and assorted spooks, flew off to talk turkey with the Taliban in Qatar.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe assortment of departments and agencies in the delegation to the terrorists was an interesting one.

The remaining Americans and Afghan visa recipients are also hostages who can be traded for more dollars.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThat’s another reason why so very few of the visa recipients ever made it to the airport. And why the majority of those who did had no visas and no vetting, but probably did pay off the Taliban.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe Taliban can only make so much money from charging tourists to see the missing Buddhas.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe last year should have been a comprehensive education in why the Taliban can’t be trusted.

Assuming that these numbers hold true for Fort McCoy, that would mean that it housed only 2,772 adult women.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAs the number of Afghan evacuees fell to around 7,000, most recently, the number of adult women would have averaged around 1,500. Even as its highest population mark, that would mean that 1 in 5 Afghan women were pregnant, while as its current number it would be 1 in 3.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAll of that within a five month period.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn all of Wisconsin, a state of nearly 6 million people, there were only \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.dhs.wisconsin.gov\/wish\/birth\/data.htm\"\u003E60,615 births\u003C\/a\u003E last year. 1.6% of the adult women in the state had a baby in one year, but between 18% to 33% of the Afghan women at Fort McCoy were pregnant during their time there.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThese staggering numbers reveal the massive speed with which Islamic colonization takes place, fueled by birth rates and then religious violence, but even with the high birth rates within Islam in general and in Afghanistan in particular, the Fort McCoy numbers are still too high.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAt 4.32 children per woman (as opposed to the American birth rate of 1.70), the Afghan birth rate is high, but 1 in 5 Afghan women (let alone 1 in 3) are still not pregnant at any given time. Some of the Afghan female refugees must be older which narrows down the population further. The only way to account for such a high pregnancy rate is by factoring in the underage girls.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EShortly before September, Senator Tammy Baldwin, Rep. Mark Pocan and other Democrats toured Fort McCoy and falsely claimed that the evacuees were being reliably vetted and screened.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\"There are no cases in Fort McCoy right now with a child, 15 or under, who is married,\" Senator Baldwin insisted. The careful wording by the former lawyer leaves plenty of room for loopholes. It does not address the question of whether there are any pregnant children, 15 or under. And it doesn’t even touch on how many 16 and 17-year-olds are pregnant. And, since many of the Afghan evacuees had no documentation, there’s no way to know if any of those 16-year-olds are actually 15, 14, or even 13, despite how old the men trafficking them claim that they are.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhy else did the State Department demand \"urgent guidance\" after “intake staff at Fort McCoy reported multiple cases of minor females who presented as ‘married’ to adult Afghan men, as well as polygamous families?” Afghanistan has a 57% child marriage rate. Senator Baldwin and the Democrats expect us to believe that what the media is now describing as the “baby boom” is entirely due to 500 women, out of 1,500 to 2,700, all somehow being pregnant at Fort McCoy.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe only way to make sense of these numbers is to include many of the underage girls.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EBut why are so many Afghan women and girls at Fort McCoy pregnant? Obviously having a baby on American soil solidifies their legal status and provides them with assorted benefits. Demographic colonization of infidel nations through reproduction is also considered a form of Jihad. But for the men who bought and sold young girls for the trip, impregnating them is also a way to control them. It will be a lot harder for those girls to get away once they have a baby.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EState Department personnel asked for guidance and the Biden administration began a coverup.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe media reporting on the “baby boom” at Fort McCoy state that the “base is partnering with local hospitals for deliveries”. Locals have long complained about the enormous demands that the Afghans at Fort McCoy are placing on local hospitals and medical personnel. For the first time we’re getting a small sense of just how enormous that demand really is.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIn all of Monroe County, there were only 534 births in 2017. The Afghan migrants are set to equal all of the American births in a county with a population of three-quarters of a million.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhen 12,500 Afghans can outnumber 741,770 Americans, what will happen when over 100,000 Afghans are brought to America? After Biden brought 53,000 Afghans to America, another 60,000 are waiting on visas in Afghanistan. That’s 113,000 Afghans and it’s just the beginning.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAt a time when hospitals are already under strain and there are shortages of medical personnel, Biden’s decision to dump over 12,000 Afghans into rural Wisconsin has proven to be catastrophic. Gundersen Health Systems, one of whose hospitals has been used to deliver Afghan babies, has claimed that it's near capacity with COVID patients. Could Americans lose their lives because of shortages created by the Afghan strain on our medical system?\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EEither way, the Afghan influx has hit the region hard and as their wave of demographic change transforms the country, the next phase of the war in Afghanistan will take place in America..\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EA few days after September 11, Rep. Ilhan Omar signed a letter to the Secretary of Defense in response to complaints from the evacuees, claiming that the Afghans at Fort McCoy were suffering \"mistreatment\" and had been spoken to in a \"rude condescending manner\".\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EThe next Omar, nurturing a grievance against America, is already at Fort McCoy.

New spices, hummus and dates were added to the chow hall’s menu” which was entirely Halal. Basmati rice is one of the most expensive varieties of rice available, but nothing was too good for the endlessly complaining arrivals.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile the Afghans were complaining to reporters about \"hard rice\", personnel at Fort McCoy were complaining about “multiple cases of minor females who presented as ‘married’ to adult Afghan men, as well as polygamous families.\" This wasn’t too surprising since the child marriage in Afghanistan stands at 57%. Like the toilets, \u003Ca href=\"https:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/point\/2021\/09\/2-afghan-refugees-already-busted-child-abuse-daniel-greenfield\/\"\u003Eit’s a\u003C\/a\u003E “cultural thing”.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EWhile no action was taken on those cases, Bahrullah Noori, an Afghan refugee, was arrested for trying to undress a 14-year-old boy and behaving inappropriately with a 12-year-old boy.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMohammad Haroon Imaad was also arrested after his wife accused him of choking her. He had also allegedly threatened to “send her back to Afghanistan where the Taliban could deal with her” and also told her “that nine women have been killed since getting to Fort McCoy and that she would be the tenth.” An estimated 87% of Afghani women face domestic violence.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003ELike the toilets and the child rape, choking women is just another Afghan cultural thing.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EGeneral Glen VanHerck however visited Fort McCoy and assured reporters that the enlightened Afghans were much more law-abiding than the racist Americans.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EI've done some research and how that compares to populations across the United States,\" VanHerck declared. \"For example, in six weeks in Operation Allies Welcome, in a population of 53,000, there have been eight reported cases of robbery and theft.”\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EVanHerck neglected to Google the statistics for assaulting children and women.

The deserting Afghans are upsetting the Biden administration, not because it’s concerned about potential terror threats from the refugees, but because it makes it harder for its refugee resettlement allies to cash in on every single Afghan. And it interferes with their plot to alter demographics in red states by resettling Afghans in the South.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EMeanwhile Fort McCoy is near capacity. American soldiers are back to patrolling Afghan streets and trying to win their hearts and minds by asking them to use toilets and not to abuse their women and children. But the scenes of American soldiers trying to keep the peace among Afghans and communicate American values to them are no longer taking place in Kandahar, but in Wisconsin, and in other states with the misfortune of housing Afghans.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EIt’s almost as if we never actually withdrew from Afghanistan.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EAmericans are funding three Halal meals a day for tens of thousands of Afghans, our bases are full of mosques, our soldiers are trying to keep Afghans from killing and abusing each other, and we are on the hook for every dollar in welfare spending lavished on the Afghans while Americans struggle.
