I like how trumplings don't know that those troops pulled from Syria are not coming home and that they think we did the honorable thing in Syria, the world is truely upside down when it comes to what we used to consider Republican ideals.

We had no business putting troops in Syria to begin with. The Pentagon used its stooge Obama to give the green light and the rest is history. Trump's only trying to put things right.

And he got it Wrong, as usual. Should we pull out of Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan, yes, but it the how that is important so that the gain s are not lost and our allies all these years of fighting are not left to the wolves. Face it, trump screwed up big time, even Republican Leaders are saying so, many that have far more experience at this than trump, he made his bed and us now stuck in it, it will be used against him in the next few months.

You must be operating under the previous mantra that the US needs peace in the Middle East 'cause that's where the oil is. All US troops out of the Mideast, Europe, Asia and outer space. And if you have any feelings left to give tonight think about the people of Hong Kong. Freedom lovers they are, no press do they get. Even the NBA has turned their backs.

Yes, I would love to see Peace in the ME, doubt that will happen in the near future. Nope I am a firm believer that there are good reasons to have troops stationed in some areas of the world, our meer precence is a deterrent, Korea comes to mind.
I see footage of Hong Kong every evening, not much we can do there.

Not much we can do there? How about a movement among NBA players where they take a knee when the Chinese anthem is played while they're doing their shoe sales tours? Big money swapping hands in that Chinese shoe market.

Actually they got congress to pass a separate resolution authorizing the use of force in Iraq.

Actually they presented a bunch of trumped up false hoods supported by the NeoCons in Congress with a 'if you don't go along you love terrorists' crap. Part of the GOP 2000 official platform was to remove Saddam. Many in the BushII administration knew there was little hard evidence of WMD and further knew much of the 'evidence' presented was highly questionable to an outright lie.

Voting to allow any means necessary is a far cry from voting to go to war. I remember it being more of a lever to force negotiations, but the NeoCons just pushed on thinking it was a green light to attack... :peace

We have permission from S Korea and authorization from Congress to station our troops there. We have neither in Syria.

Obama invited Russia into Syria to deal with the red line Assad had crossed.

Did we have the approval of Afghanistan or Iraq? Nope
