What is the YPG in the agreement ?

 

What Kurdish military lost 11,000 lives helping the US defeat ISIS ?

The same I mentioned two weeks ago.  It's the militant arm of the PKK in Syria.  It's "homegrown" the same way the Provos were "homegrown" from Sinn Fein and the IRA.

Romney, 72, expressed frustration that the U.S. had caved to Turkey's demands, asking, "Are we so weak and so inept diplomatically that Turkey forced the hand of the United States of America? Turkey?"

Kinda funny Romney accusing anyone or anything of being weak. That guy is so wimpy you would almost think he's related to black face Justin T.

Was that Kurdish "military" helping us defeat ISIS out of the kindness of their hearts, or because ISIS was trying to conquer/kill their people?

 

You know, there is a bit of a difference.

You don’t see the contradiction of crying about Iran to the UN, but effectively strengthening Iran’s position on the ground?

No, I don’t. These issues are extraordinarily complex. In this case the Administration’s policies are consistent: they are getting the United States military forces out of the region while asking the UN to do its job so we won’t end up having to return any time soon.

That's an excuse.  UN is a feckless organization that Trump has railed on forever. 

 

Actions matter much more than words.  This was an awful two weeks for Trump's foreign "policy"

The bottom has dropped out of Republican support for inane policy decisions. “Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a vocal critic of President Donald Trump’s decision to pull US troops from Syria, said Thursday he wants the Senate to pass a resolution condemning the move that is ‘even stronger’ than the one that passed the House Wednesday with a broad bipartisan vote.”

The problem that the Republicans have is that they have never been able to just fall in line. They have different opinions and aren't willing to let those opinions slide just for the sake of party unity. The Democrats on the other hand, march lock-step with party leadership (The Squad aside) and would follow party leadership off a cliff if lead there. The Republicans will never succumb to the lure of the lemming leaders, but will unite behind dynamic leadership while simultaneously objecting when they see fit. It's like Republicans are The Marlboro Man while Democrats seek out Virginia Slims.
