Republicans have no one to blame but themselves

That was because we were there. Now, since Turkey is partially responsible for ISIS in the first place, let them deal with it.

They are not worried about ISIS in fact they were helping them against the Kurds.

So, then are you advocating continued and possibly increased US military presence in the Middle East?

Um yes when it is in the interests of our national security. You seem to think Putin will protect us.

Invasions in Syria are pale in comparison to the invasion of the US through our vulnerable borders. This is both Dems and Pubs fault. As both parties benefit politically, which enables financial gain from inaction. Its like the drug trade, nobody wants to stop it because elites are making $$$$ off the trade

NATO? Trump called it obsolete and slapped tariffs on it's members. I'm implying that leaving our allies out to dry is a threat to national security.

(CNN)Donald Trump's accusation that NATO is "obsolete" has led to "astonishment and agitation" within the alliance, Germany's foreign minister has said.

Speaking in Brussels before a meeting of EU foreign ministers, Frank-Walter Steinmeier suggested the alliance was rattled by the remarks by Trump.
In a joint interview with the Times of London and the German publication Bild, Trump signaled that US foreign policy in a range of areas could be turned on its head. He suggested that sanctions imposed after Russia's annexation of Crimea could be eased in return for a deal to reduce nuclear weapons, that German Chancellor Angela Merkel had pursued "catastrophic" policies on refugees, and that his son-in-law Jared Kushner could lead a Middle East peace effort.

Oh look how clever Bullseye's post is. I'm sure I"m the only one who noticed that he is hamfistedly attempting to dumb a comment about a specific situation down to "all situations in an area ever". Then if RV says "yes, this time," Bullseye can totally win the internets by saying "I bet you criticized the Iraq war! Hypocrisy!" Nobody has ever tried playing that retarded game on a debate board.

:roll:

I guess that's just Trumpists for you. RV laments the orange lout's decision to betray needed anti-ISIS allies to torture and death. Trumpist plays stupid games to try to score internet points.

Shame the GOP in the senate kept vetoing all the house bills providing for mixed border security measures - billions for it - because it felt it politically advantages to dupe the ignorant into thinking Democrats want open borders when really, they just don't want a wall along the entire thing because that is stupid, useless, bad, and dumb.

The drug trade can't be stopped because Americans keep buying drugs. It's called supply and demand.

Good luck with that. Our elected leaders have no interest in stopping the drug trade. They are not just making $$$ on foreign soil unethically

Turkey is an ally of convenience (like SA), while the Kurds have fought and died (in far, far greater numbers) alongside U.S. service members for many years.

But they didn't fight in Normandy!

Unlike Trump's friends the Saudis. Right? I mean that has to be the case, that the Saudis were there at Normandy, because that is how this President decides who to fight alongside with and who not to.

I've never seen Bullseye make a clever post.
 
Based on the logic by some in this thread, there must be an abundance of support in us going to war with Iran. I argue they have killed and maimed far more American's than ISIS. Never knew there were so many hawks

From your posts, you don't seem at all informed about anything relevant here.

Quite the opposite, Erdogan allowed tens of thousands of violent Islamist's free passage through his county and into Syria, better known as the Jihadi Highway.

Over the past five years, I can't recall even one small battle the Turks have had with ISIS is Syria.

Not only that, he also allowed IS fighters in from the South to have their injuries tended. Not to mention having initially supplied them with arms.

Until he realized he could in no way control a beast he had unleashed for his own gain of sticking it to Assad and the Kurds at the same time, seeing how IS extended its suicide bombings into Turkey.

Some people like to preserve their ignorance by not looking, others by forgetting.
