The Observer 641 Posted October 9, 2019 Turkey allowed him to build two buildings there. Not hard to connect the dots here. So disgraceful. I hope that the world understands that this is only temporary. And due to a glitch in our system, a guy receiving 3 million less votes than his rival became our minority president. And that we will again, someday, go back to showing loyalty to our allies and disdain to evil countries and their tyrannical leaders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted October 9, 2019 You're prolly correct, and we will waste trillions more and countless lives and at the end of the day that place will be an even bigger shithole than it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tanatastic 2,061 Posted October 9, 2019 Since all those places want is each other all dead, why not just help both sides and wipe them all out? Then they will be happy and at peace. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Observer 641 Posted October 9, 2019 Foreign policy goes way deeper and requires much more strategy than most here have the ability to understand. It's not as simple as "screw them. I just want to get out of there'. There is ISIS to consider. Trump loves to blame Obama for allowing ISIS to form. This move will allow them to regain strength and numbers. And even Mitch McConnell, one of the country's biggest Trump suck-ups said yesterday that "A precipitous withdrawal of US forces from Syria would only benefit Russia, Iran, and the Assad regime," Again, that was Mitch McConnell.

Hawkeye21 1,852 Posted October 9, 2019 Just now, The Observer said: And Mexico is paying for the wall. Amazing what he got his fools to believe. They still believe that one. Although, Trump tweeted that the border is now secure so apparently there isn't actually a need for a wall across the border after all. Problem has been solved. Better refund Mexico their money.

They also believe that China is paying for all the socialism money that it's taking to bail out the farmers. Which is now twice as much as the auto bailout was. They'll believe anything that guy tells them to. It's frightening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RaiderHaters Revenge 3,578 Posted October 9, 2019 even you libtards have to agree this is a no win situation I got into a huge fight with my hippie extreme leftist mom this morning about how we need to send more military to the middle east and ramp it up. Then she says even republicans think so, and I am like look at your hypocrisy, you hate Trump so much you are now pro war, when George Bush sent military to the middle east you protested that. Dems, what is your solution, what is the solution that you would agree with Trump on, really? If he said we are sending 100,000 troops to Syria you same people would be biatching about that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark Davis 162 Posted October 9, 2019 Personally I'm for us transporting the ISIS detainees on our way out to Bashar Assad. He isn't exactly known for running Hiltons for his political opponents. I'm sure we can take him at his word that he would treat them fairly and humanely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted October 10, 2019 6 hours ago, Reality said: One of the reasons I voted for him, I want out of these sh!tholes. Yeah, I see both sides. On the one hand, yeah, I want out of the middle east for good. In large scale anyway. I'm cool with drones and special forces strikes to kill terrorists here and there, but no more full scale fighting. On the other hand, the kurds are about the best people in that region. Ideally, Northern Iraq, northern Syria, and southeastern turkey would be a new nation of Kurdistan. But we long ago decided to fock them over in favor of turkey. And turkey, let us not forget, is not above genocide, see Armenia. If there were widespread support globally to give the kurds a state, I'd be ok with the US supporting it. Unilaterally, I'm not. But yeah, those kurds are gonna die, and we sold them out. It sucks, but such is the world. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
