I think the half-truth or the lie was it wasn't part of the Afghan process. Well, that's because they're asking you to do it. They're asking you personally to DNA test this child. And we have an Acme lab at Bagram that does it in three days. And we already have her swab. And they had actually sent one of these people out of the woodwork in Afghanistan to get DNA tested.

So, like, that's what he told them. I've got it in an email downstairs where he's asking the embassy, like, this person that says that there's a surviving sibling, we now want to do the DNA test. And then there's this nondescript response from the embassy, and then they get them in person, and they say, don't talk to the DOD anymore. Are you serious? Yeah.

They get an order from the two-star that no one in US4A will advocate for this child. I've got the order. It's a draft. It wasn't signed. It was a verbal order. He never signed. But it was, you will not advocate for this child. All questions of this will go to the embassy. And so something else happened that's very important for viewers to understand.

When we threatened to sue, there was a hold by the Secretary of Defense on her movement. Like they were going to move her on February 11th, 2020, and they ended up not moving her to the 27th. And so we thought, okay, we've succeeded. They're going to do a DNA test. They're going to vet these people, right, to make sure that this is a safe outcome. And so we thought we succeeded.

We didn't end up filing that lawsuit until we found out they were ignoring it and just going to go forward with it. But that was because the Afghan, quote, government, and I air quote that for a reason, sent two demand letters in perfect English to the embassy and U.S. Forces Afghanistan. And the intent of those letters was to rush the administration's decision-making cycle.

And guess who do you think drafted those emails or those letters? We came through this Afghan that we've now got to the U.S. safely. He's like, oh yeah, the embassy drafted this and sent it to us on WhatsApp so that we could send back to them.

So you've got this embassy drafting letters purportedly in the name of the Afghan government during a discussion about what's the right thing to do here to rush the decision-making cycle of their own government. I've got the drafts. Holy shit. Yeah. And so then they're filing affidavits in court saying, oh, well, the Afghan government demanded this to happen. And it's bogus...
