Here's the thing: there are non-crazy libertarian-lite reasons* to, in an orderly fashion, completely get out of Syria. But Trump is so effing unintelligent and inarticulate that he is making what could be (in the future) seen as a smart decision a terrible mistake currently. He has alienated allies current and future, all because he is too stupid to articulate a cogent reason why the troop removal is important now. Good luck to whoever the next US president is when they need to gather an international coalition.
*And not from the fake libertarian Rand Paul, Ted."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

Originally posted by Katy Lied View PostI know we shouldnt have to police the world. But we made promises to the kurds, and they faced danger on our behalf. It was fricken 1035 soldiers, we have 55K in Japan and 35K in Germany. Why couldn't we have reduced Japan and Germany by 500 each?

It is long past time to empty Japan and Germany of US military forces. Both countries are now economic giants and have been for several decades.You're actually pretty funny when you aren't being a complete a-hole....so basically like 5% of the time. --Art Vandelay

Originally posted by chrisrenrut View PostThe timing of the decision, at the height of impeachment talks for his Ukraine call, tells me there was a purpose. It seems like anytime he is under pressure, he does something out of left field that changes the dialogue and distracts from the issue applying said pressure.You're actually pretty funny when you aren't being a complete a-hole....so basically like 5% of the time. --Art Vandelay

Originally posted by creekster View PostYou're smarter than me so I know you heard the nuance in what he said as well as what he did not say. If you assume that "10s of thousands" of Turks are swarming the 50 soldiers, no matter what, then, yes, you move them. But that is almost certainly a faulty premise. Erdogan called Trump to inform him of Turkey's propsed plan for a terrorist free zone. Rather than demur or object or inform him that it was unacceptable or tell him it had to be modified or that he needed more time to assess, etc., Trump simply said "fine" and then tweeted that he was moving the advisors who were in Turkey's way. Rand says they were coming? Of course they were, but the rest of his assumptions are speculative and assume conditions that were only present BECAUSE of Trump's decision."I'm anti, can't no government handle a commando / Your man don't want it, Trump's a bitch! I'll make his whole brand go under,"

For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.
Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

Originally posted by Walter Sobchak View PostNo, I don't. These aren't the ruined nations of 1945 any longer. The Germans don't want us there, the Japanese don't want us in Okinawa. Bring the troops home.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.
