Whoever gave the final order to leave dozens of contracted working service dogs behind in cages at Kabul airport cannot possibly have a soul..This vile human, some useless military brass or an incompetent in the Biden administration, cannot be allowed to hide behind anonymity after pronouncing a certain agonizing death sentence on these dogs..Expose and mercilessly, relentlessly shame this black heart. Fervently pray that whoever it is, and all who nodded in agreement, will come to be haunted for the rest of their wretched lives by what they did every time they see a dog on the street, TV, anywhere..These beautiful, faithful creatures alerted soldiers to explosives and IEDs (improvised explosive devices) buried in the ground, saving countless lives..They were companions that offered a sense of normalcy and affection to lonely, traumatized soldiers far away from home and family, trying to survive the ever-present physical danger and mental torment of the hellhole they were sent to..The dogs obediently endured the heat, the dust, the deafening blasts of gunfire and explosions..A pat on the head, a “good boy,” and a chest to rest their weary heads on was enough of a reward..And they were simply left behind..It’s hard to even think of the anguish the soldiers, already forced to follow orders of a depraved fool who calls himself president, felt when their planes took off without their dogs, knowing what would happen to them..As if being ordered to succumb to the orders of Taliban barbarians, leaving behind Americans, Afghans who helped them, $83 Billion in U.S. military equipment, and their blood and sweat and tears in the dirt wasn’t enough..If they’re lucky, the dogs will perish from starvation and thirst in the brutal heat..More likely, expect to soon see videos of the jubilant Taliban beating and methodically torturing the dogs, simply left as helpless prey trapped in the cages and at their mercy..The Taliban will take immense, depraved joy in both the acts of torture, and tormenting U.S. soldiers and Americans by showing them the suffering of the dogs and the depth of their brutality which makes them feel manly – much like beating, executing people, and raping children does..The Taliban thinks dogs are filth and puts generous bounties on dogs. They’ve always viewed the capture of service dogs used by foreign troops as a great coup and an opportunity to unleash demonic rage..The American Humane Society pleaded for the dogs to be loaded on available cargo space..“These brave dogs do the same dangerous, lifesaving work as our military working dogs, and deserve a far better fate than the one to which they have been condemned,” said Robin Ganzert, CEO of the Humane Society..“It sickens us to sit idly by and watch these brave dogs who valiantly served our country be put to death or worse.”.Anybody remember Brin? He was a stray, a brown mongrel who attached himself to British troops and learned to protect them from IEDs. The Royal Gurkha Rifles adopted him..The Taliban captured him in 2010 and bragged about beating him almost to death, breaking his nose and ribs..He wasn’t the only dog they captured and tortured. But he was one of the few saved when the Afghan National Army conducted a raid to successfully rescue him after he was held captive for a couple of months..Chances of mounting a rescue operation to rescue the dogs left behind in Kabul are non-existent..An anonymous Defense Department spokesman said the U.S. military did not leave any dogs in cages at Kabul airport. The Military Working Dog Team Support Association posted a message on Facebook Tuesday saying working dogs were abandoned at the airport, but they weren’t U.S. military dogs..President Joe Biden refused to carry on rescue efforts and left countless American behind. So why would that wretched man care about a few dozen dogs?.Canadians were left behind too as Prime Minister Justin Trudeau prances along the campaign trail..When those videos of American dogs at the hands of the Taliban surface – and they will – to sicken and haunt us, do you think the disgraceful Women and Gender Equality Minister Maryam Monsef will still affectionately refer to the Taliban as “our brothers?”.Who knows? The deaths of 158 Canadian soldiers in Afghanistan at the hands of the Taliban didn’t appear to move her..There’s no helping the dogs now. The Taliban took control of the airport when the last military flight left Monday..The only thing left to do is pray these precious dogs die quickly..Slobodian is the Senior Manitoba Columnist for the Western Standard.,.lslobodian@westernstandardonline.com
