pete, do you recall all the liberals
bashing bush for staying in iraq through the surge,,they all said bush was a war hawk who should have brought the troops
home. the democrats took control of congress with the message that it was time
to get out.

so can you see where i’m coming from, when i say it all
appears political? people
claim to believe one thing, then the other party gets control
and they say the opposite.

Look at these articles and notice the date

republicans attacked obama
for running up debt, and 95% say nothing when trump does the same. that’s the hypocrisy i have no use for.

you are right, 100% correct, we need allies. does that mean american teenagers need to die there forever? can we send them equipment but bring our
kids home? and the fact that americans have died there ( 5 this year) means nothing to
the kurds unless we stay forever?

We might end up there for the foreseeable future, like Korea and NATO. That's part of the price of being the biggest arms dealer in the world.

I don't think pulling out, putting your head in the sand and doing thoughts and prayers is a viable alternative.
