Gee, and I really, really thought that meant something. (Not!)

On the bright side, now there isn’t a Kurdish Question distancing us from our Turkish allies in NATO.

I'm glad they were able to come to an ultimate solution.

I'm going to burn in hell for laughing at this.

This is a booming loud message to world leaders from Donald Trump:

"Do whatever you want, because first I will chastize you, then I will negotiate a lopsided deal in your favor, and then in the end I will make sure that you recieve ZERO long term consequences."

If any of Trump's MAGA cuck-boys are reading this post, I just have to ask: are you tired of winning yet?

Trump literally used the words "Ultimate Solution."

Looks like the soldiers Donald orders to abandon our Kurdish allies are coming home after all:

Iraq says U.S. forces withdrawing from Syria have no approval to stay
Quote
U.S. forces that crossed into Iraq as part of a pull-out from Syria do not have permission to stay and can only be there in transit, the Iraqi military said on Tuesday.

U.S. Defense Secretary Mark Esper said, however, that Washington aimed eventually to bring the troops withdrawing from Syria back to the United States.

The Iraqi military statement contradicted the Pentagon’s announcement that all of the nearly 1,000 troops withdrawing from northern Syria are expected to move to western Iraq to continue the campaign against Islamic State militants and to help defend Iraq.
I thought Trump promised people would respect America again.
Takes a long time to rebuild after Congress forces CAASTA down the nation's throat.

Finns don't care about CAASTA. They care about some orange guy with dementia claiming that their president advised him to follow Finland's lead and rake your forests to remove leaves in order to prevent forest fires.

One of MANY examples.

Looks like we aren’t withdrawing anything, we’re just bringing in more shiny tanks and artillery pieces.

True, but we are doing so in a way that still allows Turkey, Russia, Assad, and ISIL to fill our power vacuum up north at the expense of the Kurds while concentrating our presence on a couple of oil fields, just to keep Iran from getting access to more oil.

This tweet says "Syrian rebels" although they're really just Syrian mercenaries Turkey is employing to help their invasion look more legitimate.
