Let the butt Fing of our allies begin.
Trump expects absolute loyalty to him but has never shown loyalty to anyone else. It shouldn't be too surprising that he feels no loyalty for the Kurds.

You do realize that turkey is a member of NATO right? I don't like Erdoğan at all, but NATO ally... Considering the kurds and turks are natural born enemies, you have to make a choice? Yes, the kurds are allies against isis/al qaeda, but not by treaty. Lets hear your plan. Kick Turkey from nato and then retaliate? An exit plan was always going to be needed. What's your exit plan?

Dammit Cpl (Join to see) ! Don't make the butt hurt liberals actually think about a problem and provide a coherent response ! All they know is "ORANGE MAN BAD" !!! They have been brainwashed and need to be deprogrammed... (Okay, end the sarcasm, for now) Have a great day, buddy.
For real now, if the handful of troops we had there, were killed as the Turks moved in, President Trump would have been hammered for not supporting out troops more. They were never anything more than a speed bump (like Korea), and a caucus belli when they are slaughtered by the Turks.

We shall see how this plays out. The Kurds are very adept at defeating incursions like this in the past.
Turkey *says* this is a clearing operation to clear militants from the area and has limited goals.
I'm curious what Assad thinks of this invasion.

1SG (Join to see) Assad might be OK with it in the short term, as long as the Turks pull back when they are done. Go in and kill a group neither like. Win-win. Well for them.
I wonder if the Kurds will try to turn to the Russians? They seem to be the only player that could provide them cover after we left them out to dry. The Russians may not be interested though as they are backing Assad.

SPC Kevin Ford - Nope, not the Russians.
They are on their own here unless we reconsider our position.

SPC Kevin Ford Remember Flynn was an undocumented foreign agent to Turkey lied about his conversations with Russia. I'm now watching Rachel Maddow which Wendy Sherman says Russia is supporting Turkey against the Kurds.

I hate Erdogan but Turkey is a NATO member. I know where my feelings lie but I also know that the middle east is a nightmare.
