    Not sure how you figure that ... the US has been in the way of the Syrian army laying waste to ISIS - hence why the only regions where ISIS has a significant presence in Syria is the US controlled areas. ISIS/Al Qaeda (don't forget about our Al Qaeda friends) have been mostly wiped out in the areas under Gov't control .. and now they will finish the job.

    In fact, the PKK is still a Communist anti-capitalist terrorist organization.
    America, Canada, Japan, the UK, France, the EU, the UN all designate the PKK a terrorist organization.
    And that is just a short list.

    Trump nailed it. Now we have Turkey forced to stop Russia and Iran as we just sit back.

    Here is one of the best experts with hilarious and accurate insight on the whole topic.



    This comes from all Leftist sources.

    That's not a quote from Mattis. You're quoting the Washingtonexaminer writer.


    And you're going to claim the Iraq invasion had nothing to do with the formation of ISIS? Seriously?

    Several economists blame the extension of the depression on that.

    FDR did interfere with the economy and prolonged the Great Depression just like Obama did prolonging a full recovery of the economy after the Great Recession ended in June of 2009.

    He threaten to.

    The thing is, the USA already had tariffs on goods before Trump became POTUS.

    America like all sovereign nations have always had tariffs.

    The oligarchy and the world globalist want to end all tariffs and want a world without borders allowing the free movement of goods and people...lots of people from shithole countries to developed countries.

    You know how it works.

    In Nazi Germany only 10% of the population were Nationalist Socialist but every German was called a Nazi.

    No they weren't and it was a lot more than 10%

    So Americans should be painted as terrorists because of McVeigh, Rudolph, Kopp, Roof and other righties??

    Nope

    Turks and Kurds are friend people each other, no one hesitate it. But there is Kurds who want separate from Turkey, so they are not friend literally. PKK and YPG are collaborative terrorist groups.

    In actually, things aren’t simple unlike they are seen. I mean, maybe all of these issues a plan of big picture and maybe they want to open the way to found Kurdish country include some of Turkey’s land. Or, they want to dismiss Turks from Cyprus. Now, they allege that Turkey has occupied Syria, then international media and countries disapprove Turkey; and the last part is reminding the Cyprus issue, so The Greek government may try to remove Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.

    Who are they? Everybody knows and nobody knows. They are everywhere and they are nowhere...

    That conflict has been going on for centuries and we're not going to fix it. You want to fight the Turkish Army? Tell the Kurds we're busy fighting an illegal invasion and coup attempt, call the UN.

    He's beaten ISIS, something Obama couldn't do, and hasn't gotten us involved in any new conflicts. Peace and prosperity isn't a bad platform to run on.

    No need to fight them. We had 2000 troops there that prevented this. Wasnt even an issue until bone spurs got a call from Erdogan and Putin with orders to cowardly abandon our allies

    "It is our true policy to steer clear of permanent alliance with any portion of the foreign world" George Washington's Farewell Address. The inaugural pledge of Thomas Jefferson was no less clear: "Peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations-entangling alliances with none."

    Obama's red line was foolish indeed it was about poison gas. Obama believed that he worked out a feel with the Rukies to get Assad to destroy the poison gas. Maybe somevwas destroyed but chlorine gas or clorinevwas used bybAssadvafter that. Obama was stupid to trust the Russians just as Trump is to deal with and trust Putin and the Ruskie gang.

    The same Erdogan who is about to get serious sanctions? You want those 2,000 troops there forever? It isn't our circus. Europe is a lot closer. Maybe if Germany spent more than 1% on defense, half what they've promised, they could do something about it.
