I was happy Nov 2016. The happiness increases daily since then.

Currently it is at universally awesome level.

As I understand..the Syrian Kurds are PKK. The communist wing of the region. They actually hold brainwashing sessions for their fighters to indoctrinate them into the PKK.

Kurdish militia trained Antifa fighters in Northern Syria

I can see why Trump decided to cut them loose.

At least with Eisenhower, Kennedy and Ford, there was a good reason they failed to come to the aid of freedom fighters: Doing so would have embroiled the United States in costly conflicts.

As opposed to one of those cost-free wars in the Middle East?

Nope. Just another excuse for the hysteric Never Trumper to mindlessly whine.

What is the vital US Security interest involved in the US giving the Kurd’s a US backed military shield to hide behind while they continue their separatists attacks on the internationally recognized Governments of Iran, Iraq and Turkey?

So were just suppose to endlessly continue the “Emperor of Earth” polices of the last 4 US Presidents? We suppose to write a blank check payable in US blood and treasure to every oppressed group everywhere?

Frankly I prefer Trump’s return to the pre Bush family traditional US policy. Bush the 1st made a massive mistake ending our “Over the Horizon” posture in the ME. By failing to decisively win Desert Storm in 1991 Bush locked us in a full body hug with the Middle East tar-baby ever since.

It is time the USA start figuring out how to pry ourselves off that mess. Like the Border Crisis Congress’s complete lack of any responsible action over Obama/Clinton/Biden/McCain’s misguided adventure in Syria required the President to take action.

Now that we are a energy exporter, for the 1st time since the 1960s, our national security interest in protecting the flow of oil out of the ME is greatly reduced. It is time we start re-thinking all our national polices. However, Congress has shown they will not act unless forced to it by the Executive.

Furthermore..Back when Obastard was POTUS and this whole GD thing started I explained to my former friend who was the congressman from MICH 1 why we MUST NOT, get involved over in that area.

The biggest reason was that Russia has their ONLY warm water naval port there and that we would come face to face with the Russian navy in that region.

He couldnt see anything beyond his nose and eventually had a conservative rating under 40%. Ran as a constitutionalist to boot.

They are all lying Sons a B....

Monsieur Boot looks as if someone pee'd in his cornflakes this morning.

He doesn't look very happy, does he?

But to answer his question, I would say that Trump supporters, all 64+ million of them, are very happy with THEIR President!

It’s basically a war over there, why in the world would America want to get pulled into that?

“The Kurds are just another mooselimb faction, none of which are on our side. If we get involved with one, they are just using us while it is convenient.”

Our book says—Do not kill..Do not bear false witness,Love thy neighbor

One's a NATO ally and the other is an adopted ally.

In the meantime, each have huge armies. It's a friggin' civil war....and not our war. These are not the same Iraqi Kurds that we defended under Saddam.

This is a PR disaster. Could have been handled differently.


Isn’t everything WaComPost produces a PR disaster??

That has to be what you’re talking about.

If not, I see that you’ve been properly schooled, otherwise.

Not our fight.
If Max Boot wants to go help them carve out Kurdistan from Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria he’s more than welcome to do that.

Yes, Max Boot, I'm very happy.

And DEMONRATS (and their allies, like you, Mr. Boot) have forgotten about the Fall of Saigon in 1975, in which DEMONRATS in Congress voted to stab our allies the South Vietnamese in the back. Funny how times change, ain't it?

Trump is getting 1000x more attacks for this than the kenyan did for leading the young Yazidi girls to their ISIS rape camps.
