Were we prepared to stay there and fight the Turks, given the fact that the Turks seem to be committed to coming across the border and establishing this militarized zone with or without our staying there?” he continued.
It's true. Erdogan would have run our guys over like he was Zhukov coming through the Fulda Gap. Really. That's why Trump had to take his calls before the invasion. Trump had no choice to fold like a porn star.
All that was necessary to stop the invasion was for the Kurds to send a contingent to Erdogan promising to stop the guerrilla warfare on the border. In the absence of that effort why would an American soldier's life be worth such lazy political policy?
The Kurds had blown up their last school bus as far as Erdogan was concerned.
