Pulling troops out of Syria.
As for not giving anyone notice I'm not so sure that works either way.

It seems Fred that most of your Lefty friends don't agree with you they are accusing the president of throwing the Kurds to death.

A little help here. The only number I have seen is fifty [ 50 ] troups. Is that correct ?. And if so , what is the big deal ?.

That's what I've been wondering. If all we have there are 50 troops I agree. That sounds like a suicide mission. Either pull them out or reinforce them to a level where they can defend themselves.Originally Posted by Independent Voter

So it's a big deal because it's a chance to jump on President Trump and make up lies. These folks are Shameless

The token troops with the Kurds at the Turkey border in Syria were the equivalent of hostages used by combatants everywhere to insure against an attack. Turkey knew that with those few there they were no threat, but if the Turks killed some then they risked war with the U.S. in retaliation. It kept the Turks at bay, but at our risk in a highly volatile area. The Kurds have been reliable allies in our fight, but it must be remembered that their fighters are all Muslims AND DEDICATED COMMUNISTS. Do we owe them never ending troop deployments in the internecine squabblings of the Muzzies? Not in my view. Our ONLY motivations in foreign relations should always be what is best for the United States, not what advantages our allies. It should remain a cold, hard calculation.
