I agree with Trump.....get the troops out...

[futurecurrents]

Everyone is freaking out about the withdrawal from Syria and his latest intention of getting out of Afghanistan. Especially the Israeli interests.

I say , good. The presence of the US in the M.E. is why 9/11 happened. The longer we are over there the more pissed off they get. Then they send over terrorists.

Plus, what does it get us? Cheap oil? Again, we are better off if oil get's more expensive. It will help save the earth. Maybe these idiots buying huge gas guzzling SUV's will think twice.

Yeah Israel hates the decision. Again, I don't care. They have infiltrated our govt and dictated our policy over there for too long and they are the reason that the 5 trillion dollar Iraq 2 happened. Fuck em. We have acted for them for too long and with too much cost.

Uber lefties share your belief no doubt, but leaving Syria means abandoning a ton of pro democracy opposition to be slaughtered by Assad and Putin, also means abandoning the Kurdish allies to be destroyed by the Turks and Iranians, means acquiecing to ISIS and having to deal with them later. Means Europe energy needs are controlled by Russia.

All of that is fine, we can be Switzerland and ignore genocides I suppose.

So you think this is about genocide? LOL That's why we supported the Saudi's war on Yemen? Humanitarian reasons? You Jewish? Just asking because they - and big oil - are controlling our ME policy.

Well, first, let's begin with geography (Yemen is not Syria). Then let's move on to reasoning (completely different conflicts). Lastly, let's focus on the issue instead of chasing red herrings (I never claimed support for backing the Saudis in Yemen).

Yes, I think Obama was right to call armed support in Syria, yes I think Assad wants to keep power by destroying the opposition calling for elections. Yes, I think the US entered the conflict in good faith, even when non-altruistic motives overlap.

Like I said. Waste of money and lives and it's not about humanitarian reasons. It's about US imperialism and projection of power to protect big oil and Israeli interests.

Trump is right, get out.

You never answered. You Jewish? Because that tends to sway opinion, and policy here.

It's actually probably a distraction tactic. Try to get people talking about something other than his dismal negotiations on the budget.

U.S. Marines get slaughtered in Beirut, Reagan invades Grenada. Politicians have more sleight of hand than magicians....

Here, I'll fix that nonsense for you.

U.S. Marines get slaughtered in Beirut, Reagan loses his temper and orders the USS New Jersey to fire its 16-inch guns for 90 minutes into the Bekaa valley from its position in the Mediterranean. Each shell weighed over 2000 lbs. Thats one shell every few seconds for 90 minutes. Terrorist infrastructure was targeted.

In Grenada Reagan had our military rescue US medical students and kill a lot of Cubans who were looking to basically annex the island.

There.
