"Dear Kurdish soldiers,

You don't know me, but I have known of you for most of my adult life. When my military husband and I quickly married, knowing he was deploying to the Middle East to be part of the 2003 invasion of Iraq, I feared what he and his Special Operations unit would face when they arrived.
How bad would the fighting be? How long would they be gone? Would he survive?"

Should have been said the first and second times we abandoned the Kurds but no one cared then because President Trump was not in office. No one would care now if Hillary was the President.

Who could say it better than a wife who's been through it?
