“The best way to keep them over there killing each other!

“The best outcome to be hoped for when dealing with inbred subhuman seventh century savages, is to make sure they have strong local leaders who are willing and happy to kill off the worst of their own subhuman monsters.

For the first time in many years we have a President, PDJT, who understands this and is working for it. So far it seems to be working out pretty well, far better than anything any other recent President has done.”

A minority of MI and MI Intel people, the non Deep Staters have advocating this strategy since the mid 1960’s.

Of course they were laughed at or ignored and some times both.

*** The best army over there that defeated ISIS while the Russians and Regime are bombing children. ***

Congratulations, you have bought into the neocon propaganda.

"after the Kurdish YPG militia urged Damascus to protect the town, where U.S. forces operate, from the threat of a Turkish offensive. "

So much for sticking around to protect the Kurds. If Turkey wants to have a war with the Kurds, Syrians, and the Russians they can do it on their own.

Do you really think that Russia will want to fight Turkey in Syria other than a slap on the hand warning?

If that were to happen, Turkey might swing back towards the US and Russia would be caught in a pincer movement. Assad needs Russian help, intact, not attacked.

If this is true, then Trump deciding to get out was pure genius.

Please correct me if I’m wrong, but Trump exits, and now the Syrian Army is going to join up with the KURDS?

YOu also have Saudi Arabia helping them?

The KURDS have never asked for US Troops, they’ve only asked for our weapons and intelligence BOTH of which OBAMA failed to give them.

Trump again showing not only the swamp who is boss, but by bucking his generals, he’s sending a message to our enemies too. He’s in charge. He’s just as powerful as you, is what the message is.

If our media, and congress would support him, just a little, we’d be by far the most powerful country in the world, and would lead the world to a better world.

No, I don ‘t think Russia is spoiling for a fight with anyone.

But I don’t believe they do nothing when Turkey rolls the tanks into Northern Syria.

Notice it’s Turkey that has taken the prudent pause.

It appears to be true and accurate, and yes PDJT is a Genius in this action.

... now the Syrian Army is going to join up with the KURDS?

Yes, but more properly worded: The Kurds are going to join up with the Syrian Army. Historically and traditionally, the Assads (father and son), have been peacefully neutral with the Kurds and their self governance ambitions under Syrian Law. Also the Assads have been significantly protective of all Syrian Christians. The group they have gone after is the Muslim Brotherhood, the longtime origin of Islamic Terrorism, and the American Left's favorite Muzzies.

Trump again showing not only the swamp who is boss...

Yep, but more importantly, he's showing he cannot be manipulated by lying anti American Globalist scum, no matter what positions they hold outside or INSIDE the US Government.

If our media, and congress would support him, just a little...

Yeah, that brings us back to the lying anti American Globalist scum I spoke of ...

Of course there was never any real reason to be upset that Assad murdered 200,000 of his own people on Israel’s doorstep. Just like there was no reason to be upset when Clinton did nothing about the huge numbers murdered in Ruanda. After all, part of MAGA is to be glad that we are a strong independent country that has no responsibilities anywhere else in the world.

On the other hand, if Bush 2 had not completely eliminated the Iraq army, the top ranks which should have been removed would not have had a vast number of hungry troops to recruit for their underground ISIS and other resurgent military operations.

Pretty much the only true support President Trump has, are the loyal Trump voters who have figured out the madness and method of the Globalist scum and American Deep Swamp.

Fortunately, that is a large percentage of qualified voters.
