Hey, Meghan, they are both Moslems, so its all good.............
I guess fat Me-Again, daughter of a self-absorbed traitor, doesn’t know that there’s a world of difference between the Kurds in Iraq and the Kurds in Syria.
Always thought of her as Mother Goose. Ample in the breast and thigh departments.
Well the Kurds are like the Appalachian people. They’re spread out over four countries(States). So should we give the Appalachians a country by carving up US States?
The Kurds had a State for three years between 1920-1923.
Treaty of Sèvres) gave them a State
renegotiated Treaty of Lausanne (1923) took said State away.
Notice the names of the treaties. First one is French, second one is Swiss - locations treaties were signed.
These treaties were mostly the work of Europeaners, mainly to divvy out land after the breakup of the Ottoman Empire.
Now people want the USA to carve up one or more countries to give the Kurds a State. Problem is, we’d be breaking the second treaty.
Erdogan actually wants to revise that treaty but I doubt it’s to give away land.
Sounds like a job for NATO countries other than us since we didn’t have a whole lot of involvement in the treaties to begin with.
At first I thought this was a stupid move by Trump. But our troops were not placed there to give aid to the Kurds in their ongoing conflict with Turkey. They were placed there to get rid of the ISIS Caliphate.
Mission Accomplished.
Time to get out.
It’s also long passed time we got out of Afghanistan. We’ve been there about 17 years longer than necessary.
Trump promised to get us out of these endless conflicts. We voted for him. We should not be surprised when he keeps his promises.
The Kurds are perfectly capable of fighting their own battles with Turkey. If Turkey puts boots on the ground, there will be a lot of Turkish soldiers pushing up daisies. I don’t think it is in our best interests to start shooting the Soldiers of a NATO ally or having them shoot ours.
Just waiting for Congress to declare war, ma’m.
Megan, if it really means that much to you. The simple solution is, YOU hop a plane and fly over and join the kurds fighting a war that been going on for centuries.
The Turks under Erdogan are the ones doing the slaughtering of the Kurdish people, not US troops or agents. What is the United States to do, go to war with Turkey to punish them for their disrespecting of the contributions of the Kurdish militia?
Cut to the elements of the situation. Turkey is a most unreliable “ally” and uncertain “friend” on the best of days, and nothing that is happening is news to the Kurds.
I don’t think the military has women’s uniforms in morbidly obese sizes.
Exactly how many American soldiers does the want to die and how will it solve the fact that the Kurds and Turks have been fighting for millennia?
She could always put her money where her mouth is and hire XE (formally Blackwater) to help the Kurds.
Blame Trump?? We don’t tell the Turks what to do, they are an independent country with their own government. And here is a site that can inform everyone of the weapons shipments to Turkey in 1992 and on a ways.

And I believe that was during the Clinton era.....making it three presidents before Trump got there of which two were liberal/socialist.
She;s just another factless moron.

Fattie needs to grab her rifle and catch the next redeye to Damascus.
George H. W. Bush was still president in 1992, Bill Clinton wasn’t sworn in until January 20, 1993.
Look what Little Miss Muffett did to them! I know..spelled differently.
In the fantasy land of nursery rhymes, Meghan looks like she took the story literally.
How much AMERICAN blood is on the hands of Bush League Republicans from their refusal to secure OUR border?
What about all those twinkies you slaughter every month Meagen?
Tailor a GP Medium tent.
The whole point of having proxies is so we don’t get into another war. Have we not learned the lessons of 9/11? I don’t understand it!
____________________________________________________
Sweetie, what happens when your proxies start getting their butts kicked? Don’t you have to step in to save them? My point is that your (and your daddy’s) theory about preventing wars often just lead to other kinds of wars.
The Turks said they were going into Syria 20 miles.
Every Kurd with a gun and a brain should have gone somewhat further into Syria.
The Turks could have marched/rode in without a shot being fired or a bomb dropped.
