Moving the goalpost Tommy?

From Turkey killing thousands of Kurds to ISIL prisoners excaping?

Both are going to happen. They are gonna kill a ■■■■■■■■ of Kurds and since the Kurds are holding the 10,000 prisoners, the prisoners will escape. How can you be unaware of this?

And if Turkey moved in and then what? Declare war on our ally?

This is the second time you’ve said this while providing zero evidence such a thing was likely to happen.

Trump has already said that if Turkey doesn’t stop its attack we will (somehow) destroy their economy. That is as much as we can do without a military attack on Turkey. So, if said a thousand times, “Do we declare war on Turkey?” is a relevant question.

Or…we could have stayed in place and the status quo would have been maintained.

Imagine that.

This happened because we PULLED BACK.

It wouldn’t have happened, and we wouldn’t have had to “do anything” had we not done that.

Pompeo claims that “it became very clear” after the phone call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan “that there were American soldiers that were going to be at risk and the President made a decision to put them in a place where they were out of harm’s way.”

Kurd have already started to abandon prisons in order to create defensive positions for incoming ground forces.

Turkey and Iran? LOL damn that’s funny.

They haven’t thought this one out…their hatred overcome any reasoning, any thoughts of intelligence to have a rational discussion.

CanadianJudo · 2019-10-09T22:46:53.889Z

You want us to trust, that turkey won’t you know murder innocent kurds something they have been you know doing for decades.

you want us to think this is about helping the Syrians, when it not.

I dont think anyone has thought this out seeing as it came out of nowhere.

I’d be willing to bet trump hasn’t thought this out.

conan · 2019-10-09T22:49:33.299Z

I’m willing to bet he did.

conan · 2019-10-09T22:53:30.988Z

We had libs here claiming Turkey is bombing cities…with thousands of people being slaughter. A genocide will take place.

And all what Turkey is doing is creating a buffer zone so Syrians can go back to Syria. And yes prevent Kurds from setting up shop on Turkish border.

Seriously…you guys crack me up…and you want to go to war with Turkey over it? And ally?

TommyLucchese · 2019-10-09T23:05:14.421Z

Kurds live in Turkey. Thats the area that Kurds live in in Syria. Lived there for centuries.

Look at how fair you’ve come. Defending an Islamist dictator while he kills our allies.

CanadianJudo · 2019-10-09T23:06:50.622Z

Its like saying that Iran is going to make a safe zone for Iranian to live in Israel just going to kick the Jews out.

Cynic · 2019-10-09T23:06:51.535Z

You forgot the part where they decimate our allies, the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia - which Ankara says is a “terrorist group” threatening its security - from the border and precipitate the release of 10,000 ISIS being detained by the militia.

Hey if you want to declare war on Turkey knock yourself out.

Just don’t drag America into it.

CanadianJudo · 2019-10-09T23:07:53.442Z

The Kurd have been living in that region of Syrian for hundreds of years, but we need to make room for those refugees which the Kurd have openly invited to come live with them already.

You really believe that Turkey threatened to attack American soldiers if they didn’t leave and Trump backed down? Because that’s what you’re claiming.
