The welcome message engraved on the base of the Statue of Liberty is “Give us your tired, poor, and crowded crowds eager to breathe freely.” However, any non-white haters are loudly protesting the possibility that the United States welcomes Afghan refugees seeking to flee the Taliban regime. Fox News performance reporter Tucker Carlson started his hate campaign against Afghan refugees.Yahoo website quoted him as saying, “Let the Afghans refugee It will be an “invasion” for the United States, although many people have fled and been hunted down Taliban Cooperate with the United States and NATO forces.” In order to arouse the fear of Fox audiences, he said, “In the next ten years, this number may increase to millions. So first we invaded, and then we were invaded. “
Trump’s racist policies and remarks have allowed the potential racism inherent in the right-wing Republican Party, right-wing media, and Republican voters to surface and legitimize. The Afghans are the latest group to be attacked by the Trump media and his political followers. His legacy of racism that has caused violence against ethnic minorities includes:
Racist comments against Asian Americans
- Calling COVID-19 “Kung Fu Flu”
- Spread the “laboratory theory” accusing China of deliberately manufacturing and spreading viruses
- When asked how he feels about the 145% increase in hate crime violence against Asian Americans, he said, “I don’t know. All I know is that Asian Americans in “our” country seem to live very it is good.”
- He kept making anti-China pandemic remarks at the rally. MAGA rally aroused violent reactions from his supporters
Racist comments against Hispanics
- Calling Mexicans “rapists” and “drug dealers”
- He called the countries of South and Central America “shit”
- He will call the asylum-seekers immigrants from Central America a “terrorist caravan”
- He insulted the Hispanic judge Curiel, accusing him of being prejudiced because of his race
Racist comments against black Americans
- Called black supporters at the rally “My African American
- Use of violent inducing remarks against “black people’s fate” protesters
- Threatened to use force against BLM peaceful protest
- Malicious attacks on quarterback Colin Kaepernik and other black NFL players kneel during the national anthem to protest police violence against black American men
- Calling the impeachment of his ass “lynching”

Now the targets of hatred and abandonment are the Afghans, who are fighting side by side with American soldiers to prevent Afghanistan from becoming a safe haven for terrorists. Unfortunately, once we stop our military presence there, the Taliban will always resume occupation of the country. President Biden knows this will happen, but hopes that the well-trained Afghan army of the United States will fight for their freedom. He believes that the Afghan government, not the Afghan people, surrendered because it did not fight the Taliban’s takeover.
Our withdrawal from Afghanistan has received broad support from the American people. US$1 trillion in investment and 20 years of military presence have helped improve the quality of life of Afghan women and girls. More and more women are graduating from college and are engaged in careers that they could not obtain before the emergence of the United States. The Afghan army has 300,000 people and is trained and armed by the American army to defend their government. Most importantly, since 9/11, the US military presence there has protected the US from terrorist attacks.
Biden made it clear that the United States has never promised to maintain a military presence in Afghanistan indefinitely. Before becoming president, he had been calling for an end to the war for many years. However, he expressed great admiration for the strength of the Afghan people and promised to continue to support their struggle to survive under the Taliban.
