I would assume that every nuclear weapon in Turkey has a "failsafe" self-destruct mechanism in place that enables it to be destroyed in a catastrophic emergency.
Seizing those things would be the dumbest thing anyone could possibly do.

I agree. There was many ISIS prisoners. Many of them were from several European countries. Others were from Iraq. I don’t know about the rest. However, there was a call out to these nations to pick up their prisoners. The European nations would not take them. Iraq would not take them. Everyone who weaseled out of taking their prisoners share the blame for the Turks being unable to contain them when the bombs started to drop. I am sure US troops would not have been able to protect them and themselves as they moved them out in the crisis. Every one of those countries has egg on their faces now we know the results of their weasel ways.

After defeating 100% of the ISIS Caliphate, I largely moved our troops out of Syria. Let Syria and Assad protect the Kurds and fight Turkey for their own land. I said to my Generals, why should we be fighting for Syria....
....and Assad to protect the land of our enemy? Anyone who wants to assist Syria in protecting the Kurds is good with me, whether it is Russia, China, or Napoleon Bonaparte. I hope they all do great, we are 7,000 miles away!

The Daddy Warbucks types are getting mad that Trump is getting us out of the Middle East and killing their cash cow.

I think you have described the corruption money racket the America haters are engaged in. It may describe why Obama is so rich.

Rarely has a presidential decision resulted so immediately in what his own party leaders have described as disastrous consequences for American allies and interests. You mean like when Obama abruptly pulled out of Iraq and turned half the country over to ISIS?

Oh, no! The Dems, a few RINOs (cough McStain & Co) and the DNC media shouted out with glee, when THAT happened!
