America's longest war. Republicans and Democrats battled for 20 years about the predicament of the war with no resolution. Suddenly, in a dash, President Biden declared that there is no military resolution to this conflict. After approximately 5,000 U.S. members died in battle, along with 20,000 Taliban killed and hundreds of U.S. interpreters, the war finally comes to a close. However, the exit from Afghanistan is insane. Thousands of civilians and former U.S. contractors flood the airport in a dash to leave the country. "The Taliban is coming," the people shouted. Tooba was an interpreter to the American forces their for five years. She was promised a visa to the united states at the end of her contract. She did not expect what was about to come. When the announcement was made that the U.S. was withdrawing all forces, she quickly grabbed her belongings and grabbed her two young children and headed to the airport. When she arrived, she found two hundred thousand others attempting to flee the country. The crowds were too thick and aggressive for this 5'1" 95 pound woman to push through. She decided to dare the impossible; to circle back into the heart of Taliban country and to make a subtle escape to the northern border to the less hostile nation of Turkmenistan. In order to do so, she would have to cross, mountains, valleys, rivers, and Taliban security checkpoints.
