I’ve often thought that if we were to switch course with the migrants fleeing from foreign countries, that the countries receiving new white American emigres would thrive in whatever place they landed, while the countries receiving the refugees would deteriorate.
I am living among Deep Blue pod people. Imagine Donald Sutherland pointing a bony finger at me for being a KAG supporter.
I want to clobber the obsidian.
Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests.
Kind of like the homeless throwing things at citizens going about their business.
Syria been a Russian Client state since the 1950s. We weren’t there fighting Isis. We were running guns from Libya to Syria to “arm the freedom fighters” and topple Assad. It was “regime change” again.
Amazing how our “journalists” just ignored all the weapons and money O’s crime club, with the help of McCain, dumped into Syria that ended up arming ISIS.
What our moron squad Obama-Clinton-McCain etc were too stupid to learn is that Isis is one part of the Anti Assad forces. So anything we gave the “freedom fighters” ended up in Isis hands.That why you saw the pictures of all the trucks we bought “the freedom fighters” hauling Isis troops around
We had NO BUSINESS being in Syria. Trump is merely cleaning up one of the disastrous mistakes the DC Lobby for for Perpetual War made
Ever wonder why the O regime did nothing to stop ISIS selling oil out of Syria? Why the 0’s regimes rules of engagement specifically prevents bombing oil shipments or oil wells? It wasn’t until Trump brought it up at a 2015 debate that O was forced to take action. That what broke ISIS back, not some 50 guys hanging out with the Kurds.
Remember all the bombast at the 2015 debates where both Democrat, and Republican, candidates where trying to out macho each other on a No Fly Zone against Russia in Syria? If any of that “thinking” had been made policy we would of been in a shooting war with Russia over Syria now.
Trump is trying to clean up the mess Bush 1-Clinton-Bush 2 and Obama created. Frankly I prefer Trump’s attempts to return to the pre Bush family traditional US policy.
Bush the 1st made a massive mistake ending our “Over the Horizon” posture in the ME. By failing to decisively win Desert Storm in 1991 Bush locked us in a full body hug with the Middle East tar-baby ever since. We been fighting in the area almost 30 years now because of that disastrous mistake.
Trump is trying to pry us off the ME Tarbaby but it not going to be easy or quick
Build a wall around the entire middle east and write the word Zoo on it
An attempt to create an embarrassing incident by recruiting a small number of fruit throwers?
Important to note also the Kurds are an ethnic group, not a nation state.
“A video has surfaced...” I stopped reading right there.
Remember all those Isis guys tooling down the highway from Syria to Mosul in the summer of 2014 in brand new Toyota pickup trucks? It wouldn’t surprise me to learn that the ObaMao Administration paid for the trucks and quite possibly the AK-47s as well.
It took a lot of control for those SOF Remote Weapon Station operators not to point the CROWS at those folks. How could they be sure there were no grenades or RPG operators in that crowd.
We don’t need to be there. All those men can protect their own country.
More signs that we should have been out of there long ago. These people are all descendants of a man who was cursed to never get along with everyone. The curse continues.
Maybe the video came from the same crowd that was accusing Assad of, totally against his own interest, gassing his own people.
The Kurds can take their place along side the South Vietnamese.
I’m sorry but I don’t know what you mean by either of your posts..obsidian - and KAG....
I think we should stand by Kurds. At the same time, I realize we can’t protect them forever. So why don’t we give them stingers so they can take out Turkish helicopters?
