The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....

....IN THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY! We went to war under a false & now disproven premise, WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION. There were NONE! Now we are slowly & carefully bringing our great soldiers & military home. Our focus is on the BIG PICTURE! THE USA IS GREATER THAN EVER BEFORE!

The warmongers are going to be mad. After all they love endless wars, and most likely because they are marking money at the expense of our military.

“Fighting between various groups that has been going on for hundreds of years. USA should never have been in Middle East. Moved our 50 soldiers out. Turkey MUST take over captured ISIS fighters that Europe refused to have returned. The stupid endless wars, for us, are ending!”

We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children. We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. We will only have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.

― Golda Meir, fourth Prime Minister of Israel

Europe was happy to have us act as the warden for these prison camps full of European citizens (aka ISIS fighters). Sorry neocons, let them be absorbed by a country we actually have established relations with and leverage over (Turkey).

What’s weird to me is how after every new war, the USA gets another fresh migrant wave

There’s benefits in war on multiple levels for America’s oligarchs and globalists

How are our Politicians going to get their kickbacks, graft, bribe money from defense contractors if we shut down the Military Industrial Complex by ending these needless wars??

We should have gave them to the Kurds that would have executed them.

Oh that would be mean to the Savages and their families.

Oh noez. We'll create a vaccuum for ISIS and Al Queda, and Iran and Turkey and Russia!!~!111
...
I'm tired of this logic. Why in the flying F can't Europe do something for once? It's practically their back yard. Well, not really, but comparatively speaking, if they wont lift a finger, why is it our problem?
How about China? India?

Bueller?

The ancient Romans had pretty much the same problem.

SOME people are just incapable of self-government!

We have only succeed in gaining their eternal hatred for all we have spent, done and sacrificed....It’s time to cut them for bait!

Not only has there been no positive return on the investment but our $8 trillion dollar entanglement has created huge hordes of implacable crazy enemies who without our involvement had no reason to hate us.
