Fred Reed compares the evacuation of Afghanistan to that of Saigon in 1975

And now we have done it all over again in Kabul, complete with helicopters over the embassy and a panicked evacuation undertaken way too late and sudden concern for turncoat Afghans who made the mistake of working for the US.  There is talk of importing 20,000 Afghan refugees to America.  I find it amusing that many conservatives, who thought the war was peaches because it was about democracy and niceness and American values, now object to importing people their dimwitted enthusiasms put in line to be killed.  Use and discard.  Countries and people.
