Statement from President Donald J. Trump Regarding Turkey’s Actions in Northeast Syria
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Excellent! Clear and direct.
We knew this was coming, don’t mess with the leader of the U.S.
Turkey scr**** us during the Gulf War.
The present day Kurds are not the same Kurds we supported during the Saddam years.
It’s kind of ridiculous to “Bring the troops back home” by moving them to another part of Syria to “monitor and prevent” something from happening , when they were monitoring and preventing something from happening.
It is more complicated than that.
The Iraqi kurds are not the same as the Syrian kurds...
Plus SO MANY ISIS members are escaping because it’s kinda hard to keep an eye on THOUSANDS of prisoners when YOU’RE BEING BOMBED INTO SMITHEREENS!!
Hmmm. He gave Turkey a rope to hang themselves with.
NATO can re-evaluate it’s Turkish ties too.
We will no longer be obligated to Turkey.
It was a bad obligation.
Trump hates bad deals.
?
So much knee-jerking with regards to Trump’s actions in Syria, especially from “Republicans”.
You've posted a single sentence of your own making and nothing from the "statement" you claim in the title. Why must you lie?

I should have known Trump is a “neocon” after all. Ha ha.
President Trump’s statement got posted at #4 post.
I have a job.
Do you ever achieve a sensible on topic opinion?
I don’t see that at all. POTUS is being symbolic, practical, and measured all at the same time.
He is symbolizing that America is not a global police force.
He is deploying debilitating economic weapons to force compliance with peace and security policies.
He is keeping a small contingent of troops ready to destroy any ISIS prisoners (70,000+) that escape.
The Turks are fully capable of managing the incarceration of 70,000+ ISIS prisoners. They have a long history of prison and jail management. It is not a pretty history but then ISIS fighters are barbaric. Turkish barbarism meeting ISIS barbarism is a good deal. POTUS is cautioning Turks to show standards of humanitarianism.
Thank you for your on topic opinion.
