    Pretty stupid and false assessment of yours is easily debunked. First of all, the USA has never had any major influence in Syria. Syria has always been in Russia's sphere of influence as well as in Iran's. However, Obama administration tried to pull off the regime change in 2011/2012 which failed and resulted in the bloodies civil war in the modern history. Obama's administration wrote the most shameful pages in American's foreign policy history by arming and supporting the most radical Sunni Muslim groups in Libya and Syria, which resulted in slaughter of thousands upon thousands innocent people. Incidentally, General Flynn warned the world about the formation of ISIS. Brennan, Clapper and Obama have never forgiven him for blowing the whistle. He got punished for it.

    Jimmy Dore "Right Wing Talker" <--- When a Leftists spouts this, you know they are woefully uninformed and just part of the establishment sheep brigade.

    No, he is one now. I think actually I didn't accurately describe him. He's a conspiracy theory nut, just like the guy you voted for is. He may not care which political affiliation the theory supports. But he's still a nut, ignorant, and wrong. Is that better? You're welcome for my clarification.

    No he's not. He was one of the few Leftists that was 100% Right on Trump Russia Collusion. He is a Bernie Sanders supporter. What conspiracy did he support?

    Nothing, just politics. As a Turk, our enemy’s enemy is our friend. But meaning of friendship changes time to time. Yesterday Trump was bad, today Trump is not bad, tomorrow Trump may be bad again... Isn’t that the meaning of politics already?

    ^^^ Facts were shared. I hope you Leftists actually read and comprehended this excellent post.

    We are foolish for involving ourselves in a 200 year old war that will never resolve. Trump did the right thing. Now, if he can get us our of Iraq and Afghanistan, it would be great!

    You keep saying the same things without any thought behind them. What/who are these "others" that can handle this? You go on about our soldiers being "slaughtered" without acknowledging that it was our President that put them in that position. They have been there for a long time, yes, but the reason was for our own interests which have been undermined by the President. You also have no problem turning a blind eye to the people that actually ARE getting slaughtered which have been our allies for years.
    With friends like you.......
    Good luck with any coalition building in the future.

    Germany is the one complaining most about the European issues that will happen because of this.

    Does anyone in Europe have a military? I think so, I helped train them :)

    Their problem- not ours. If you feel so strong about it, take a flight out there and fight them

    So Germany (our ally) is complaining about a reckless move on our part on abandoning a different ally and your answer is "here, you go fight them". Fight who? Turkey? We weren't fighting Turkey. Kurds? They were our ally. Syria? We weren't fighting Syria. Who/what are you talking about?
    Europe has a military? Who did you train that you want to throw under a bus?
    Their problem, not ours.......of course we started the whole thing, but walking away is fine with you. "Not my problem"......bet you have a hat with that on it,

    Is Turkey not a US ally?

    Are you claiming you want to violate the NATO treaty? What exactly are you claiming?
