Trump sells out the Kurds to Erdogan

[Harpy Eagle]

Of course I'm referring to our betrayal of the Kurds who were the key fighters in defeating the ISIS caliphate...which should not be interpreted as actually nullifying the mentality of ISIS.

The Kurds lost about 11,000 fighters and have held many ISIS prisoners with the help of US troops....NOW, under the orders of Turkey and Russia and Iran, the US is abandoning the Kurds to be slaughtered by Turkish troops....and probably release the many ISIS prisoners to return to their vengeance against the Kurds..

We may well expect the renaissance of another ISIS caliphate once these prisoners are released.

The messages from Trump to ALL our democratic allies is clear and simple:...and most of all TWO-FOLD

First, Trump will always side with other wanna-be tyrants....be they Putin, XI, Erdogan, Duterte, et al.

Second, Trump will demand this from any of our allies: Help me get re-elected or the US ill abandon you and your needs.

Sadly this is not the first time we as a nation screwed over the Kurds.

Yet another bloodthirsty War Monger weighs in that the United States isn't shedding enough blood around the globe.

NeoCon Much?

It's time for the Shia/Sunnni and Sunni/Sunni in that arena to take care of their own issues. All sides in that arena use US forces in order to ramp up their 'cause' and merchandise death.

Game over.

Now it's time for 100% of Muslims to die for their cause.

Americans... it seems, this time...(if the Sunni/Sunni choose to war) not so much.

But the US pays for all the Corp protection in the ME. To profit off oil and minerals etc. free.
It's the reason we are there.

Trump is kind of changing the "What the US does..." dichotomy.

Trump is relying on gravity to pull things in behind him.

It's working, so far.

Trump abandons Kurdish Allies to coming Turkish invasion of northwestern Syria.

Trump has ordered that the 2,000 or so U.S. troops stationed in Northwestern Syria helping the Kurds fight what is left of ISIS and preventing a conflict with Turkey, will now be withdrawn in the next few weeks. Turkey says its invasion into northwestern Syria will start by the end of the month. Kurdish forces are now being redeployed from the hunt for remaining members of ISIS to the northern border with Turkey to prepare defensive positions for the coming invasion. ISIS now has the chance to spring to life again in Northwestern Syria as the focus will be off of them. This endangers Syria, Iraq, Europe and the United States with potential renewed acts of terrorism killing citizens around the world.

One more important reason to remove Trump from office. Perhaps Lindsey Graham will soon change his mind about impeachment. He is angry about the Presidents current moves and its likely this will not be popular with many other Republican Senators.

It's all about a natural gas pipeline.

For a long long time they have wanted to run a nat-gas pipeline thru syria & many politicians on the left and the right stand to make ALOT of money forever and ever from royalties on the gas running thru that pipe-line.

Trump cares more about the lives of our soldiers than the money!

These people have stood by us in our fight against Saddam and later ISIS. I simply do not understand this betrayal.
Trump’s decision to make way for Turkey in Syria seen by critics as a Kurds betrayal

Another bad decision by trump

The bad decision was that worthless asshole Obama screwing it up in the first place.

Oh please. Stop it. We could do this all day. Bush lied us into Iraq. That's the number one problem we have. If he would have just stayed in Afganistan this domino effect wouldn't be happening.

Trump and you can't keep blaming Obama. Especially when Trump said he knows more than the Generals and that he would fix the middle east quickly. Did he lie?

We told you so. These are now Trump's wars, not Obama's wars. You guys wanted to play that shit on Obama's watch well now it's your turn.

Remember Trump said "leadership, whatever happens, you're responsible"? Well he's responsible.

And listen asshole. This is a classic mistake Reagan made. Ever watch Charlie Wilson's war? He warned Reagan not to abandon the taliban in Afganistan. Reagan created Bin Ladin. Now Trump is going to abandon the Kurds who have been helping us? And you think this is a good decision? He's just going to make more terrorists out of former allies.

Trump's decisions today can't be blamed on Obama, you fucking idiot. Stop it.

America is abandoning Kurdish allies who stood on the front line in the years-long fight against ISIS.

Ankara considers many of the Kurds to be terrorists who are allied with Kurdish separatists inside Turkey. However, U.S. forces on the ground in Syria recruited and trained the Syrian Democratic Forces, or SDF, which bore the brunt of the fighting on the ground against Islamic State fighters, assisted by U.S. airstrikes.

Wait a minute. You mean Trump armed and partnered with terrorists? Didn't Republicans fault Obama for doing this?

In December, Trump abruptly announced that U.S. troops would be withdrawn from Syria — a move that elicited praise from Turkey but sparked criticism among Washington's allies and within the president's own Cabinet, where the move prompted the resignation of then-Defense Secretary Jim Mattis.

Erdogan has threatened for months to launch an assault against Kurds in Northern Syria. But U.S. lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have warned that allowing Ankara a free hand against the Kurds would send a troubling message about U.S. commitment to its allies.

Kurdish forces, not the U.S., have kept ISIS fighters, sympathizers and family members in makeshift camps in Northern Syria.

The White House statement said, "Turkey will now be responsible for all ISIS fighters in the area captured over the past two years in the wake of the defeat of the territorial 'Caliphate' by the United States."

So in other words the ISIS fighters will get set free. Got it.

The only way I'll be happy is if Turkey kills them all.

 

[sealybobo]

If it means we are less involved in another war that is fine with me. The US needs to end all involvement in the Middle East,

Really? So if they get back into power in the middle east and another Osama takes control of the area and they attack the USA from there, you don't want to go fight them over there so we don't have to fight them here? So you are admitting you can't win the war, you're just going to pull out?

Wow.
