Great. This clusterfark of the Obama/Hillary/Kerry US administration continues to put all of us in danger. Because, of course, there’s no way we can train these people in their own country. No, Mr. Jackass President Red Line has to bring them to the US.

Forty-four Afghan troops visiting the United States for military training have gone missing in less than two years, presumably in an effort to live and work illegally in America, Pentagon officials said.

Although the number of disappearances is relatively small — some 2,200 Afghan troops have received military training in the United States since 2007 — the incidents raise questions about security and screening procedures for the programs.

They are also potentially embarrassing for U.S. President Barack Obama’s administration, which has spent billions of dollars training Afghan troops as Washington seeks to extricate itself from the costly, 15-year-old war. The disclosure could fuel criticism by supporters of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, who has accused the Obama administration of failing to properly vet immigrants from Muslim-majority countries and has pledged a much tougher stance if he wins.

While other foreign troops on U.S. military training visits have sometimes run away, a U.S. defense official said that the frequency of Afghan troops going missing was concerning and “out of the ordinary.”

Out of the ordinary indeed. But when political correctness as enforced by the government itself doesn’t allow you to discuss who the enemy is, you’re also more inclined to just ignore disturbing events like these.

    This is par for the course from this clown show of an administration. When these “troops” finally show up, I pray it’s not after committing some atrocity against Americans. In the meantime, President Red Line is losing no golf time over this.
