Brother of Marine killed in Afghanistan withdrawal commits suicide at memorial for fallen service member

fox-

The brother of a young Marine killed during the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan reportedly died by suicide a year later during a recent memorial service for the fallen service member.

Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui, 20, from Norco, California, was one of 13 American troops killed on Aug. 26, 2021, when a suicide bomber detonated an explosive outside the Kabul airport as crowds of Americans and Afghan allies sought to flee Taliban fighters taking over control of the capital city.

Nearly a year later, Nikoui’s older brother, 28-year-old Dakota Halverson, died on Aug. 9, a press release from the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department in California confirmed, though offering few details.

“The older brother of one of the 13 KIA in Kabul recently killed himself at his little brother’s memorial,” Rep. Mike Waltz, R-Fla., tweeted on Saturday, replying to a tweet by Townhall reporter Julio Rosas. “Please pray for his family. There MUST be accountability for this continued carnage.”

  1. “There MUST be accountability for this continued carnage.”

    …the only way THAT happens is if we take our government back from those who have stolen it.

    And I DON’T mean at the rigged ballot box.

    It’s a long-established fact that you can vote yourself into Communism, but you have to shoot your way back out.

    I invite you to contemplate the truth of that statement.

  2. That poor family. All while another, albeit completely corrupt, family is riding bikes and shopping at the beach without a care in the world.
    This is shameful and it cannot stand.

  3. Why not go after the motherfuckers who caused the whole, sad affair?
    They don’t care about your symbolism or your life.
    What they DO seem to care about is their own lives.
    That’s leverage that can be used, if done properly.
