    Default Why shouldn't we let Turkey and Syria fight it out?

    Why is it our business?


    Who cares if they kill each other?

    Why not let Saudi Arabia and Iran fight it out? Why are we sending 2,000 American Troops there? Do we support the killing of American Reporter Khashoggi? Do we support Saudi Arabia's Koran as their Constitution?

    Yes we should let Saudi Arabia and Iran fight it out. It is none of our business. We have plenty of oil we don't need em. In fact it would be in our best interest if they did fight it out.

    Why are we sending troops there? Don't know. We shouldn't. I am on record as wanting ZERO troops in any foreign country for any reason unless we declare war on them

    Kashoogi was not an American reporter. I don't care that he was killed by Saudi Arabia. He was a muslime brotherhood type

    I don't care what Saudi Arabia uses as their Constitution in their own country. I don't care if they chop your arm off. I don't care if they make women walk around on leashes like dogs

    I care about the United States

    Now, I answered your questions. Tell me why we shouldn't let Turkey and Syria fight it out? If you can't craft a coherent response then say so. I know it is nothing more than "Orange Man Bad" for you

    Theyve been duking it out forever.
    I wonder if they even will if left alone.
    But who cares anyway...

    Now that Turkey is acting like Russia, their days of NATO support are about gone, or soon will be.

    NATO will drop them like a Hot Potato!

    Without Nato supplying them with weapons- they better forget about invading anybody!

    CNN:

    “The latest: Vice President Mike Pence said Turkey has agreed to a ceasefire in Syria.
    The terms: The Syrian Kurds/Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) must dismantle their defensive fortifications and pull troops from the border to appease Turkey.
    What this means for the US: Pence said today the US will “continue to engage” in Syria, but “not militarily.”

    Another victory for our great president.

    Jack: I must have answered this question 2 or 3 times by now. You seem to dismiss my reasoning each and every time, then turn around and ask me the same question again.

    Again... MY POSITION:
    I support countries that support Western Culture and Values, like Democracy, Free Speech, Individual Liberty, and Separation of Church and State.
    So whether it's European Countries or countries in Asia or elsewhere, I support therm.
    Syrian Kurdistan (Rojava) embraces these same concepts, you can see it in their Constitution. So I support Rojava, the Land East of the Euphrates, in their Desire to be an Autonomous Region like their neighbor next door in Iraq, Iraqi Kurdistan.

    Again, as I've pointed out before:
    "The constitution has gained much international attention and is most noted for its explicit affirmation of minority rights and gender equality and a form of direct democracy known as 'democratic confederalism'.[4][5]"
    1. Minority rights.
    2. Gender Equality.
    3. Direct Democracy.

    A Beacon of Light in the Middle East, which is dominated by Religious Zealots and Autocrats like Saudi Arabia and Iran.

    Are you able to understand that? If it helps, it's not just me. Many Republicans feel the same why, just look at the recent vote in the House. Listen to what Lindsey Graham has to say.

    But will you go over and fight or are you a chicken hawk?

    Yeah, that's a great victory, Trump gets a five day postponement on the hostilities he made possible, and it is "great victory," beautiful, only in the Fox bubble

    Yeah, Israel, Jordan, and Iraq would love that one, having major wars in their neighborhood with the strong potential of boiling over into their yard, Islamic terrorists would loving it, ready to pick up the pieces, grow stronger, and escalate attacks against the United States

    I know democrats are hoping for a world ending conflagration over this but it will most likely end in an uneasy peace between the two countries. Kind of like the way it was when we were there.

    Except we won’t be there. What a disaster.
