So apparently the liberals now want the U.S. to be the world's police.
Pretty easy to equate this pull-out with the Viet Nam pull-out, we promised the S. Vietnamese many things that we didn't uphold. Should we have stayed in Viet Nam? |
You apply labels to simplify your world view into a binary system. The world and the people who inhabit it are diverse, even people within the same self identified group. I'm a liberal, but I believe the US assistance given to the Kurds to fight ISIS was appropriate. I also believe that the time, money and treasure given to that endeavor has now been wasted. I'm also a fiscal conservative and a human being. I'm not happy with money and lifes now wasted due to Trump's decision. Other than bringing home a small group of soldiers, volunteer soldiers mind you, what benefit is there to the US from the withdrawal? |
Other than a small group soldiers????????????? did you really say that??
Volunteers are expendable???? |

Does Vietnam have anything to do with poor judgement over Syria?
Trolls try to divert attention from the latest Trump mistake or corruption. That's what they do when they have no knowledge and no coherent argument. |

How about you, do you think we should have stayed in Viet Nam? |

That's awesome. Let them waste there time, money and soldiers.
This is all about Turkey wanting to take over this territory so they can find a new home for the millions of Syrian refugees that have been taken care of.
Let the Russian deal with it , just like they did in Afghanistan.... |
