Glenn Beck Finally Able to Rescue 100 Afghan Refugees After Weeks of Obstacles

September 24, 2021 by Staff

(CBN News) Conservative talk radio host Glenn Beck announced Sunday via Twitter that nearly 100 refugees held at the Mazar-i-Sharif airport in northern Afghanistan have safely evacuated the area — a victory he credits, at least in part, to the prime minister of Pakistan.

The group included 32 FIFA soccer players and their families as well as members of religious minorities who would face certain persecution at the hands of the Taliban.

In a statement, Beck expressed gratitude to Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan, whom he said “transcended religious differences, political divides, national boundaries and local dynamics” to save “men, women, and children, innocent victims facing certain suffering, hardship or worse if left behind in a war-ravaged country where uncertainty, misunderstanding, and suspicion remain prevalent.”
