Turkish troops cross into Syria; Iran launches military drill near Turkish border: reports

Thank you! Good to know there are some of us intelligent aware people on thus board who know history.

 

Oh I see.

So when the Kurds attack Turkish units in combat we're required to go to war with the Kurds.

When can we expect Pelosi to declare war on the Kurds. Oh no. There's another problem. The Kurds aren't a country.

So, back to: when will Pelosi take a vote on declaring war on Turkey to defend the Kurdish non-country.

 

A little bit.. Nobody in their right minds launches an attack on Mountain people. They will beat your brains out like Chechnya, Afghanistan, Northern Yemen....

 

Good god.. ISIS isn't a "country" either.. nor was Al Qaeda or the Taliban.

 

I would not shed any tears if ISIS spread terrorism into Russia and attacked Russian assets in Syria.

 

It's their problem. You are free to join them if you love them so much.

 

The Syrians remember Hayfez Assad and the slaughter in Hama.

 

I didn't even mention ISIS.

Read harder.

 

You're missing the point. We used them to defeat ISIS...And Trump took credit for the victory. Now, that he no longer needs them, he's thrown them under the bus. If we didn't want to give them our protection, we should not have gone to them as allies in the first place. Cut it anyway you like...but in the last analysis, it's a betrayal of an ally.

 

Yeah, those women and children killed by terrorists in Russia deserve it.

 

Oh yes that was the Russian Assad's father, as I recall, right?

 

I'm not missing the point at all.

Turkey is a NATO member.

You're suggesting we fight Turkey to protect the Kurds.

When will Congress be declaring war on Turkey if they attack the Kurds?

 

What is the French said of the American patriots during the Revolutionary War- "that is their problem"? I will give you the answer, we would still be dinging "God save that Queen'.

 

I am sick and tired of our Dear Leader's BS. I want to see the transcript of his conversation with Erdogan. I want to know how hard he tried to get him to change his mind. I want to know if Erdogan threatened to cut off his Twin Trump Tower deal in Istanbul. I want to know who he consulted in our Defense Department, State Department and National Security Council and what their advice was. I want him to convince me NOW that he didn't betray an ally.

 

Keep wanting.

When will Congress act in the face of these threats and declare war on another NATO country?

 

Trump did take credit for what the Kurds did.. tweeting and prancing around in his underwear or taking bows in front of the press or one of his endless rallies.. He's truly despicable.

And NOBODY is going after Bashar Assad.

 

Just heard that Trump's excuse for the coming genocide of many Kurds is that they did not help the US in world war 2. He has gone insane!

 

The President is responsible for the conduct of U.S. foreign policy. To borrow a phrase, all he had to do was "just say no." Instead, he's got Giuliani, Pompeo, Barr and half the U.S. government running around the world trying to prove that the Russians didn't interference in our election. As far as I'm concerned he just created another charge of "abuse of power." And, IF it turns out he didn't want to offend Erdogan because of his personal Istanbul deal, then he belongs in jail...for a very, very long time.

 

So you'd like the POTUS to declare war on a NATO ally then.

 

Don't expect Trump to...Putin would forbid it.

 

Times change.

 

ISIS is not going to openly challenge Russian troops, I doubt a battle where they kill each other off would ever happen. The Syrian Army more likely, since they are still recovering form the losses of their civil war.

 

How about this?

 

Yeah, just one of dozens of times Trump cashed checks with his mouth, and now he is eating his shoe. It seems there are plenty of Republicans that are miffed with his latest action, and now he is trying to claim it is not a big deal.

 

Dirty Donald has left the Kurds at the mercy of the invading Turkish and the Syrian military>Already today at least 7 Kurds have been killed.And now we will be confronted with the over 12,000 ISIS fighters held prisoner by the Kurds will escape and pour into Europe alienating our allies.There are also approximately 40,000 plus family members of the ISIS fighters there in Syria,wives and children of the imprisoned fighters.So much for Dirty Donalds claim that HE wiped out ISIS????
