Yes, it is our fucking concern. We destabilized the region through our climate and foreign policies. We bear responsibility for the refugee crisis that happened only because of our addiction to fossil fuel (which caused the Syrian drought, which caused the Civil War) and our ham-fisted Conservative invasion of Iraq and expulsion of the Ba'athists.
Pulling out of Syria with no plan leaves our allies in the region -native and European- hanging and cedes the country to the Russian-Iranian alliance that you're simultaneously screeching about like you did pre-Iraq War.
Conservatives should be removed from the conversation as they have nothing to contribute.
if you want to go back to Adam and Eve I suppose we all have guilt.
more stupidity. 2000 troops in the middle of Syria is not going to effect Russia or Iran
Both have an extensive presence ( add in Hezbollah for Iran) in Syria and are unaffected by our lone base

right, if we stop destroying these areas, you won't be able to guilt us into importing jihadis. its a win win.
plan - like what? we stay or we go. leaving is the strategic best move in our interest.
Russia and Iran along w/Hezbollah and Assad will determine Syria's fate.
even when we were there acting as coordinators/logistic support we wern't promised anything more
but an "observation seat" at any upcoming Geneva talks ( after Geneva 2. 3 whatever the count now)
What do I think?
No President has a direct effect on the Market, his actions or policies may influence the DOW, but doesn't immediately effect its day to day operation.
Point you are overlooking is that Trump identified himself heavily with the Dow as it was increasing. Past Presidents deliberately avoided doing such knowing how it is so unpredictable, but Trump boasted its rise and took credit for it, ergo, he is now, using his own logic, faulted for its' decline
The US, working along side France and the U.K., maintained a presence offering some balance to the Kurds or forces fighting in our behalf from the Syrians, Russians, and Iranians. And it is not only the withdrawal, but the way it was handled, by surprise, suddenly leaving with an hour's notice our allies holding the bag
oh god. more "presence". what balance about what? everybody was in on killing ISIS.
It's why the coalition worked, and why it's no longer needed.
And please don't start talking about "remnants"or "rebounding"..ISIS are an insurgency now.

why do you love war and hate humanity?

dems want war so we will be morally compelled to "pay for our mistakes" and import jihadists.

Dow drops 500 points after record-breaking rally[/h]
Stocks dropped sharply Thursday morning as the Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 500 points one day after a historic rally
The Dow, Nasdaq composite and S&P 500 were down roughly 2 percent by 10:25 a.m. Thursday, a day after stocks surged to erase record losses.
The Dow gained a record-high 1,086 points Wednesday and the S&P rose 5 percent to escape from a bear market.
President Trump's spiraling anger with the Federal Reserve and a government shutdown with no end in sight have set the stock market on track for its worst December since 1931. Stocks have slipped into the red for 2018 after soaring from Trump's election through the second half of this year.

If the DOW drops below 21,400, we will be in a Bear market.
Speaking of eating crow... where did the markets end yesterday?
Balance to the escalating influence of Russia and Iran, and in the Kurds case, Turkey.
What do you think Iraq is thinking now seeing the US pull an Irish exit in Syria? It is already a Shiite majority nation, and with no American presence, how long will it be before they just surrender to Iran? Let along the Kurds, be a long time before they ever enter into any trust agreement with the US
Cause that is what the intial topic post is doing, crediting Trump with the rise, if he owns it going up, he owns it coming down
Nah, he most likely believes Trump should receive credit for the rise
I don’t care who gets the credit, yeah Trump, just so it doesn’t go down anymore. I’ll praise Trump to keep the market stable.
