People over there are really good at staging events to play us.

Protecting everyone else’s borders, but not our own.

Having achieved the lofty rank of SP5 during my stellar Army career I can't claim to be an expert in military tactics or strategy. But if the Kurds did help us smack down ISIS then it could be argued that we owe them a debt of gratitude.

That's all I'm gonna say.

Yes, and the MSM is REALLY good at using such staged events to make POTUS look bad. We can expect that footage to be played in the “reporting” of some unrelated new item, or with the breathless headline all twisted and out of context.

Romney doesn’t care about our troops. It is not like anybody in his family will ever serve in the military.

I don’t think most Americans give a flying sex act if these pea-brained inbred mohamedians stomp their feet for us leaving. That rotten fruit could have fed their poor abused donkeys.

A lot to be said for the old style isolationism.

Slogan today could be:

It’s your world, a—holes, welcome to it!

“”But if the Kurds did help us smack down ISIS””

But all Kurds are not created equal...there are different factions so we’re always up against - who is the good guy and who is the bad guy? I would say if anyone throws anything at our military personnel who were there to help, then we don’t owe them anything.

Some of the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan were good guys.

And then there was Bin Laden.

There is not one US military person who should be lost over Syria. We need to let those mideast freaks kill each other. And fk the women and children argument, the women are breeders and the children are future terrorists.
