He’s a moron who doesn’t understand his job.. He is too close to the situation to be objective anymore. The old term was “gone asiatic”. The fact that he is emotionally connected to that culture doesn’t make it smart US policy. We don’t throw wars for his mental health.
He needs to get his emotions in check and remember he is a US soldier, not a damned Kurd.
If he is really an SF and witnessing this. Reporters can be misled.
