these "refugees" were never vetted

Of course they weren't. Actual vetting might have turned up cases where people would have to be sent back. Would liberals really be able to muster the backbone for that? Better from their standpoint not to puncture the fog of ignorance, making it easier to virtue-signal.

none of them were willing to fight for their country

It's so ridiculous that the narrative is "These people helped us, so we must take them in because they believe in Our Values™ - that's why they helped us!" as if we're necessarily getting the most virtuous Afghans (virtuous by liberal standards). In reality, many Afghans helped the American forces because they were being well compensated. So we're not getting the most virtuous, only the most mercenary.

Also the idea of this alleged vetting process they have to go through strikes me as insane.

'Are you an Islamist, do you like Bacha Bazzi, have you ever been part of a registered terrorist group and do you love Democracy™ and freedom and all that?'

'No to all of them except the last one which is a wholehearted YES!!!'

'Well you've been vetted sir. Welcome to the United States.'
