Only four days into Turkish attack and one week after POTUS-Erdogan call:

* UN: 130k displaced (likely to 3x)
* ISIS terrorists escaping (caught after years of painstaking effort)
* Syrians executed on roadways by Turkish-backed opposition forces
* Main US supply lines cut
* US forces fired on “danger close”
* Female politician brutally murdered
* Turkish forces operating well outside “security mechanism” area
* Increasingly impossible for US forces to remain in Syria at all
* No plan to take care of anyone who worked with us

Turkey came to our aid after 9/11? That Turkey was Pre-Erdogan and was a country we could generally work with.

This is not the same Turkey.

We must really balance between cutting our losses with Turkey and preventing them from falling further into Putin's sphere.

And for all y'all complaining how Puty is playing chess with Trump, he did the same thing to Obama. He is punching way above his weight, for how long who knows.

Why us.. isolationism is dangrous .. how about letting China fill our void .. let them take a turn. Or Russia. how many Syrian refugees have NATO countries taken and how many have we ? 50 or 1000 troops seems like a fair compromise

We did this for the past decade, glad you are coming around ; )

I think you’d make Trumplicans and I wondered how they came to be, not interested in making any, not that there’s anything wrong with that.

Congratulations to Trump and his base

Hundreds of ISIS supporters flee detention camps amid Turkish airstrikes .

A Kurdish official also said that the flag of the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, had been raised in the countryside.

They’re Back.......

All Americans should be upset, allowing hundreds of those nuts loose again isn’t a democratic or republican problem, it’s a universal problem, really is inexcusable.

Think of the positives. Now that ISIS has a chance to rebuild they have an entire generation of Kurds really pissed off at the USA to recruit from.

You don't get the genius of Trump at all do you?

They did.

I know Turkey is strategic in multiple ways but if they want to behave like this I don't see how they can be part of NATO.

Reported that Turkey is using militia made up of Isis and Al Qaeda terrorists and with the Russians joining in and our troops moving out completely now; the ethnic cleansing is underway. Military leaders are not happy they have been ordered out to leave their comrades to be slaughtered with US support.

The noted Liberal member of Congress

Dan Crenshaw

"Isolationists argue “it’s not our war!” while conveniently forgetting world history. When ISIS regains strength or thousands of refugees flee, it becomes our problem, again.

The isolationists need to make an argument as to why more war is better than preventing war. I’ll wait."

History repeats, again and again.

Can’t imagine being a wife or husband of one of those 1000 military men and women now trapped and maybe needing to be airlifted out due to this brilliant foreign policy move. Policy made not in a room surrounded by foreign policy experts and military commanders, no its after a phone call with a foreign power who has everything to gain. What did we get out of this bargain? Secure transport of Isis prisoners, nope. Secure removal of our military from harms way, nope. We must have gotten assurance from Turkey it wouldn’t go beyond a certain point, nope. So we let Turkey run amok, we watched as Isis prisoners are set free, we watched as the Kurds and their families who fought hard for us are killed without support from us and now Syria and Russia are entering the fray.
