The bolded is kinda my point.And by being allies with them, the US by extension were also 'connected' to the PKK. So what's your point? The US willingly chose to align itself with them knowing who they were.
I also think the premise of that article is horseshit. Nearly every article I've read has mentioned the PKK issue.
It should end when there's no ISIS. Which clearly has not been "defeated" her his rhetoric. It should end when there are mechanisms in place to prevent Turkish incursions into Syria and prevention of the ISIS caliphate resurgence. America is "great" at interfering in other peoples' governments and instituting shadow regimes. Why not do that in the region before pulling out?so where should it have ended? when was the right time to say "ok, Kurds don't need our help anymore."
I'm against sending troops to any needless wars. The US already has bases in Saudi, beefing up the troop number is to show of force, but nothing has happened in that region. If combat starts and US troops get involved, I condemn that as well.
The Islamic jihadist factions are now serving in the Turkish invasion. Turkey is using jihadist irregulars, not Turkish troops in this, and of course the Kurds are now with the Syrian army and the Russians. And of course the Americans haven't left the area at all but have fallen back to their key station guarding the oil fields.It should end when there's no ISIS.
that's what everyone said throughout the history but it doesn't always happen the way we wanted.There are ways to ensure this doesn't happen and that we never have to go back.
what you're saying is a happy ending but you and I both know it never happens like that. Let's say ISIS is defeated, the remaining member will join other forces and start another type of group under a different banner. What you're wishing for is just a momentarily success, within year or two, another conflict will happen. If you look at the history, there was something new that happens that US gets involved almost every decade.It should end when there's no ISIS. Which clearly has not been "defeated" her his rhetoric. It should end when there are mechanisms in place to prevent Turkish incursions into Syria and prevention of the ISIS caliphate resurgence. America is "great" at interfering in other peoples' governments and instituting shadow regimes. Why not do that in the region before pulling out?
Even his waterboy took his tongue out of Trump's anus long enough to criticize the move: Trump smacks down Graham after latest Syria broadside
There is no reason to "beef up" the troops in Saudi. None at all. Like you said, nothing has happened in that region. It's a just a case of kissing Saudi taint simply because they asked for it. You can't be pro pullout of troops in one region, and be okay with sending troops to another.
Iran has never attacked or invaded anybody. Iran is just being used a s a convenient bogeyman for Israel & Saudi Arabia. But "if" Iran attacked Israel would you support troops being sent there as well?
“I earned my spurs on the battlefield; Donald Trump earned his spurs in a letter from a doctor,” Mattis said.
In another zap he said: “A year according to White House time is about 9,000 hours of executive time, or 1,800 holes of golf.”
Mattis also compared himself to Meryl Streep in that they both had been denigrated by Trump as “overrated”. The president denounced Mattis as “the most overrated general” when he met members of Congress on Wednesday to discuss his recent controversial decision to pull US troops out of Syria.
“I’m honored to be called that by Donald Trump, because he also called Meryl Streep an overrated actor,” Mattis said on Thursday night. “So I guess I’m the Meryl Streep of generals.”
Afghanistan and northern Syria are not even close to the same.that's what everyone said throughout the history but it doesn't always happen the way we wanted.
reason to go back always pops up and that's the reason why we can't leave certain places like Afghanistan, when there is no clear end, the entire thing is a waste of time so it doesn't matter when we pull out of places because the results will be the same if we pulled out 5 years ago or 10 years later.
What so different about Afghanistan? Why do you think we’re in Afghanistan??Afghanistan and northern Syria are not even close to the same.
But to answer your question, no. We don't go back even if the agreement is violated. At that point we let them fight and it's not our problem any more because we did our best to make it work.
The issue now is that Trump had decided, apparently on his own and against advice of past cabinet members, to pull out of Syria without an agreement in place and allow the Turks to invade. Then he gives the Turks exactly what they wanted and heralds it as a great deal.
It's not a great deal. It's fucking retarded.
500 people have died since Trump pulled the troops outTrump should be nomonated for a nobel peace prize for bringing the tropps home.obama was drone striking civilians and bombing hospitals when he won his
Just read up on it. I'm not going to explain it to you.What so different about Afghanistan? Why do you think we’re in Afghanistan??
This is a really stupid comment. I like you, but you really need to start thinking things through before pressing the "Post Reply" buttonThere is no difference between pulling out now and let them handle their own shit than pulling out later and letting them handle their own shit??
No one got mad when we sent troops to northern Syria. No one on our side at least.people get mad if we send troops
224 SDF members have died in the past week. Leaving our troops there until there was a better deal would've saved them from being slaughtered.why is it retarded when Trump saved the Kurds from being slaughtered?
so? they have been killing each other for 1000 years and will be killing each other for 1000 more500 people have died since Trump pulled the troops out
