“But the Kurds know how to fight,” Trump continued. “And, as I said, they’re not angels. They’re not angels, if you take a look … The PKK, which is a part of the Kurds … is probably worse at terror, more of a terrorist threat in many ways, than ISIS.”

Trump: Kurds Are ‘Not Angels’ – They’re Worse ‘Than ISIS’

I know the Trumpcult will find a way to defend this latest moronic statement from Dear Leader...

The PKK is communist.

Of course you all will hail them as heroes.

I have been saying it from the get and have provided links to show he is correct. Truth needs no defense.
 
......and there is all that sand!

Ahhh, I was waiting for someone to tell Trump about the PKK. It looks like they have done so now. All is now well with Trumpland for they have an excuse they will obstinately refuse to debate the merits of.

So as far as you are concerned that justifies Trump betraying the Kurds, stabbing them in the back, causing a humanitarian crisis in northeastern Syria, forcing the Kurds to align themselves with Assad, ceding hard fought gains to Russia and Iran, the release of ISIS prisoners, monumental repercussions to US intelligence gathering in the region, endangerment of the lives of US military personnel and causing harm to US foreign relations?

Why weren't you advocating for the betrayal of the Kurds long ago when they were allied with us?

Pinochet’s government conducted a terrorist attack on US soil and we still backed them

They are not a country, thus, they are not an ally.
 
It's a clash between how we've always operated and how we SAY we operate.

Back in the 80's, we helped the mujahideen in Afghanistan long enough to deliver a defeat to the USSR, and then we abandoned them. 9/11 was one of the results of that decision.

Who knows what the impact of turning our back on the Kurds will be, but it's not likely to increase our friends or build trust, which is more in line with what we SAY we're about.

We SAY we want to spread freedom and democracy, and then we support some of the most brutal b@stards around. We SAY China is a bad actor, but we are enabling them economically. We SAY we want to stop ISIS and stabilize the region, but we cut deals against the people helping us.

Etcetera, etcetera.

^Claims everything in Syria was GREAT until this month - denying there are over 3 million Syrian refugees in Turkey. But, then, lying - even with everyone knowing it is a lie - is the #1 Democratic Party tactic.

Do you REALLY think ANYONE believes your claim that Turkey created a humanitarian crisis in Syria? That everything was great there until this month? How absurd can your TDS become?

Why weren't you advocating for betrayal of the Turks fighting along side us before now, since they have been allied with us not only in the ME but since the Korean War? Do you think in the Korean war our troops should have turned on our Turkish allied and killed or captured them? Or while they were fighting along side us in Syria?

Any other NATO allies you want us to go to war against on behalf of terrorists? Or just the not-white-like-you Turks?

So, after destroying our NATO ally Turkey for the purpose of creating a Kurdistan out of Northern Syria and Eastern Turkey, next you want us to go to war against Iraq a 3rd time on behalf of your beloved Kurds so they also can take the parts of Iraq then demand for their own country too.

Then, after we have defeated the Syrian government, destroyed Russia - Syria's ally - in a massive nuclear strike that Russia forgets to retaliation for - and then destroyed Iraq again for your beloved Kurds, who do you want us to go to war against next? I think you said you want us to attack China next, correct? Or another NATO ally - maybe Greece?

The Democratic Party has always been the party of war and death. There is no war they are not for. In your messages, there are no wars you are not for.

Absolutely true. They are communists. And they have committed terrorist attacks against our ever-more nebulous ally, Turkey.

But the Kurds, writ large, are not all PKK, and the PKK do not represent all Kurds.

Let’s see which is worse:
Criticize Trump because he didn’t remove soldiers from harms way or criticize Trump for removing soldiers from harms way? Tough question for the democrats.

Unlike you Leftists, we can think for ourselves. Look how this anti-thread was started, to defend the kidnapping and conscription of child soldiers. All because Trump called the PKK bad guys. You people literally want to go to war with a NATO ally, because Trump was trying to avoid that scenario.

Just remember that skin tone dictates how much to care.

Little Miss Muffet and Donald Trump are of a mind.
