Biden Admin Ordered All American Flags Destroyed at US Embassy in Kabul
The Biden administration ordered the U.S. Embassy in Kabul to destroy all American flags before they depart.
An internal memo obtained by the Washington Post, titled “Emergency Destruction Services at the Garrison,” was directed to “All American Personnel.”
The memo instructed staff to destroy classified documents and equipment as well as dispose of “American flags… which could be misused in propaganda efforts” using incinerators, disintegrators and “burn bins.”
