We did not put weapons closer to USSR a few years ago, what did that get us? One suggestion I have heard is move more of our German facilities to “Kurdistan” and Turkey, and allow Kurds to take ethnic territory in Syria and Iran. Keep Turkey happy with extra income from more US facilities.
Turkey didn’t want us to use those bases last time we needed them, forget Turkey
One thing I heard is keep our noses out from where we don’t belong. Nothing there worth Americans dieing for.
