What would have happened if we held WW II bomber pilots to the same rules of engagement that we do our modern war fighters? We have men of trial for their lives for killing their enemy, in fact many of our men have trained the people that eventually kill them.
He also didn’t win by supporting endless “Compassionate” wars lasting decades, costing lives and trillions in American treasure.
Yeah, I thought about that, but some numb-nutz is sure to post ‘What about Grenada?’ or similar pedantics.
He is basically saying US military personal are no longer for hire.
Not even Obama was dumb enough to completely withdraw from Afghanistan.
I don't withdrawing from Syria if ISIS no longer deemed a threat and the Kurds are armed can handle ISIS and defend themselves.
How much is Afghanistan paying for us to baby sit their country? And why can’t they develop their own defense to protect their own people?
We’re not babysitting. We’re protecting our own interests by assuring terrorist group doesn’t gain the power to threat the nation and it’s interests again. Ignoring Islamic terrorists won’t make them go away.
I noted you conveniently evaded the second question.
A warmongering liberal hypocrite. You are a real piece of work.
It’s a joke to have an open border and ongoing invasion while we have troops 8,000 miles away in counties that hate us.
We’re just the clowns, it’s their rodeo.
Since the military refuses to defend our own border I no longer support DoD and their PC leadership. They IMO are all globalist BS’ers. Pulling out is VERY popular with the American people. DO IT!
America First!
Learn it!
America First means doing what is necessary to avoid another 9/11. Old enough to remember 9/11?
Straw man. We can defend our own borders and remain vigilant against terrorism that threats our nation interests in the middle east.
It's a straw man. How many times do I have to type it in -- we're in Afghanistan to protect OUR national security not to protect Afghanistan's.
Get it?
Why can’t they develop their own defense to protect their own people? Why is it always the American tax payers are forced to pay? WTF is up with that?
Wrong yet again. We never should have gotten into it in the first place and I would rather the President pull the troops out sooner rather than later. But let's not pretend the war is ending. It will continue, just without us.
