Twenty years ago, the United States invaded Afghanistan. For two fruitless decades, America occupied that distant and backward land. Today, the U.S. has finally withdrawn, cutting its losses and washing its hands. Good riddance, most would say.
Yet there is no riddance. Today, a new, reverse invasion is beginning. Potentially hundreds of thousands of Afghanis are being brought here, courtesy of the same benighted government in Washington that so ill-advisedly adventured into their country long ago. Consider:
- Last week, a total of 11 flights filled with Afghans evacuated from Afghanistan were flown to a National Guard Base in Wisconsin.
- 2,300 Afghans have landed in Philadelphia. Most will be resettled there.
- Five hundred Afghans are scheduled for resettlement in Akron, Ohio.
- At least 300 Afghanis are expected to be resettled in Texas.
- New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy has declared a “significant number” of Afghans will be welcomed “with open arms” to his state. The McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst joint military base in Trenton is preparing to temporarily house up to 9,500.
- At least 150 will be coming to Jacksonville, Florida, where relief agencies will “register them for Social Security benefits” and feed, clothe, and house them.
- Virginia Governor Ralph Northam has announced that more than 6,000 Afghan refugees have already arrived in Virginia with more expected. He estimated perhaps 10 percent would remain in the state.
- Washington says it evacuated a total of 120,000 by the August 31 deadline. The president bragged that “No nation has ever done anything like it.” And no sane nation would have ever needed to, we might add.
And so it goes. Note that there is no law requiring the resettled to stay in place. Given a little time, these new “Americans” will seek out one another and form Afghan enclaves, which will henceforth be “No Go” zones for the rest of us. No one knows exactly how many Afghani refugees and migrants will eventually be resettled in this country. One hears estimates into the tens of thousands, perhaps 50K. But if history is any guide, the numbers could eventually swell exponentially beyond that. Hundreds of thousands (maybe more?) are not out of the question. We are told the total number of displaced could be as many as five million. And this reverse invasion may last well longer than the first.
Note that the Afghani culture is about as different from the prevailing American culture as it could be. Up to 99 percent of Afghanis, for example, agree that “Sharia should be the law of the land.” And judging by the behavior of large numbers of Afghanis in Europe, we can expect crime–in particular crime directed at women–will become a significant problem. See the graphic above.
Never before have we witnessed so blatant an illustration of the madness of “spreading democracy” abroad. The chickens–and the Afghans–are coming home to roost.
