Coward Liar in Chief Donald May Abandon Kurd Allies

[JWBooth]

He's an Alawite and ISIS is Shia.

Incorrect.

ISIS is Sunni muslims. ...

Yep, led by the surviving officer corps of Saddam’s Army

 

[Camp]

Assad is fighting against ISIS, fool.....He's an Alawite and ISIS is Shia....He's also an ally of the Kurds.

Pull your head out of your ass.

You don't know what you are talking about. And the one proven to have his head up his ass is you. You don't know what an Alawite is and you don't know the basic fundamentals about ISIS.

 

[whitehall]

Lefties cheered when Bill Clinton bombed (former) allies in Yugoslavia into the stone age and today's hypocrite left is suddenly hyper concerned about the Kurds? Give me a freaking break.

Looks like America may abandon Kurd allies to ISIS and Syrian Dictator Assad. In a full-fledged white flag surrender, America may pull out of Kurdish territory and leave the Kurds to the mercy of both the Syrian government terrorism and the ISIS terrorist.

Looks like Trump could not match the Russians in diplomacy or military will.

Trumpican politics, as usual.

Oh my word. If the Kurds can't go it alone after all the tons of weapons and equipment we have given them, then that's their problem. We have no vital interest in Syria. Assad is killing ISIS fighters. What's the problem?

I stand corrected....Thank you.

They still don't like Alawites, do they?...After all, Assad cuts his hair, shaves, wears a suit, has a hot wife who wears western dress, and he's tolerant of Kurds, Christians, and a lot of others...Amiright?

 

[Oddball]

The Kurdish leadership foolishly bought into the notion that the US would be consistent in their support. Simply no more than momentary useful tools, the Kurds served their purpose and now it is time to toss them aside like the used tissue that they are. Nobody is going to re-draw the borders in that region. Turks will not allow it, Iraq will not allow it, Iran will not allow it, nor will Syria. Now some morons here will say screw Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Turkey, but they will be there long after the US empire has faded, and the Kurds will still be without a country.

I have a good friend (regimental historian in the 82nd Airborne) who says Bush allowed Saddam to gas the Kurds.

ISIS is basically gone except for a few die hards. Surely you did not think that we ever intended to help the Kurds in a civil war against Assad. That was never going to happen.

You thought we were going to fight for Kurdish independence and their own country? Well. That's your mistake right there.

Yep, it sounds like Trump is going to fuck the Kurds - while making Turkey, ISIS, Putin, Iran, and Saudi Arabia very happy. What a fucked up place.

The Kurds are considered terrorists by our NATO ally Turkey. ...

They may have thought so, I never wanted US involvement in the first place.

A stupid, malinformed, and ridiculous thing to believe or say. This is the kind of nonsense spread by politicians and blovators who have only financial reward and no children that will be sacrificed in the name hegemony.

Erdogan is blossoming into another Saddam and the Turks are in for a RUDE surprise if they attack the Kurds. If they do, we can get them tossed out of NATO since Erdo is sharing NATO intel with Putin and buying his AA batteries...another masterpiece of Barry's foreign policy.

If you think that bringing home the 2,000 US troops in Syria is "treasonous" when there are 73 other nations there opposing ISIS you need to rethink it. The US simply can't afford to keep wasting money and lives on these bullshit wars. I hope we get out of AFG soon too. The Kurds have their big boy pants on, and will be just fine.

What did USA achieve since 2003 (Iraq invasion) by aligning with "Kurds" in Iraq and Syria ?
What did you gain ?

What did your Soviet masters gain by enslaving half the world for 50 years? We've admitted our mistake of invading Iraq.....it's brought nothing but misery to the Iraqis and ourselves. Just like when your heroic Russians invaded Afghanistan and now Ukraine....death and heartache.

Turkey made the deal to purchase Russian AA batteries long after Obama left office. Trump was President in 2017 and 2018 when those deals were made.
You guys blame Obama and Clinton for everything.

Their regime collapsed under its own weight to start with. Admitting mistakes while doubling down on them is more than a tad hypocritical.

OBL worked for us before he made the plan to fly planes into buildings.

That is patently stupid. Where do hacks get this shit?

Oh, I know; listening to each other.
