Two years after the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan, we are just now learning that more than 60 terrorists may have emigrated into the U.S. at the time of the crisis.
From Daily Mail. Militants who left fingerprints on IEDs meant to kill Americans in Afghanistan and a prisoner freed by the Taliban were among more than 65 terrorists allowed into the United States after the catastrophic withdrawal.
Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.
Most of them could still be roaming the country, and the government cannot track them down. …
