It’s been three years since the U.S. armed forces withdrew from Afghanistan . Thousands of civilians desperately chased after American planes, trying to cling onto the wings or jets, in a last attempt to flee the Taliban takeover in their country.“If you go back, they’ll kill you cut you in pieces.”I spoke with one Afghan national who was able to escape and is now an undocumented immigrant in El Cajon . He asked to remain anonymous for safety reasons.
'Who can fight my case? Fight my what case? The case that I worked for the U.S. government and the U.S. Army? And I was loyal! If this is a sin, yes obviously I'm a sinner.”I brought that man’s story to Bill Wells, the Mayor of El Cajon. Wells tweeted on Monday saying his city would do everything in its power to deport undocumented immigrants. On Tuesday, Wells told me that tweet did not apply to the man I interviewed.
