The Kurds have no friends but the mountains. Soon, the US might not either.

One would think they would have learned the last time
Anyone remember when bush and cheney promised to protect them for their help in defeating saddam hussein, offering a no fly zone to assist them.
And then reneged on that, allowing iraqi forces to slaughter them.
Yet another repiglican sellout of a trusted ally......

At first, we were supposed to remove 50 troops, whose original mission had them there 1 month. That was 10 years ago. I believe the number of troops has actually been revised down to 28 troops.

Were these 28 troops the glue that kept the entire region from going to shit? How long were we supposed to keep them there? What was the goal? What is the exit strategy? Are we supposed to keep troops there until all the prisoners in that makeshift prison die of old age?

Trump made up that 1 month crap, and yes, the presence of any American troops was a deterrent to Turkey. But because your chicken is no match for Turkey, many of our Kurd allies have been murdered, a bunch of terrorists escaped, and Russia has moved in to the void we left. Your messiah is a fraud and a coward.

Does the rest of the free world have no responsibility here? Trump asked them to step up and they refused.

So he shrugged and turned his back so Turkey could murder them. He's a big pussy.

We kept an entire area combat free with three dozen troops. It was a masterful chess move.

Trump isn't smart enough to understand chess.

Thirty troops kept violence at bay. Their removal ended all that.

So what in the ever loving fuck are you talking about?
