that’s one version.

another version is that yes we fought alongside them to battle ISIS, and that ISIS has been routed from that region, and also
that trump ran on a promise to not commit to endless conflicts .

if the world owes it to the kurds to help them, and maybe it does, can someone else take a turn? what’s the UN for, exactly?

i don’t know if this is a good decision or a faithless betrayal. tell
me why someone else can’t take a turn helping the kurds?

i liked Mattis, and when trump
announced this withdrawal
months ago, i think it’s a reason why lattes resigned, which makes
me wonder about the soundness of the decision, mattis is seemed like a great leader.

trump also warned turkey earlier this year that there would be serious consequences if they invaded syria, has he backed off that?
