The Rise And Fall Of ISIS: The Most Brutal Terrorist Group In Modern History | MSNBC
allies tend to be thrown under bus
Trump made a huuuge mistake. Didn’t consult our allies, our generals or intelligence agencies. Gets off the phone AGAIN with Turkey’s dictator and makes a snap decision for the second time. Could Mattis resign again?
Just like obummer in Iraq
Troy Stocker Like Bush in Iraq. Fixed it for you.
@V…. lol
…. the jv team
When did America become comfortable with throwing our Allies to the wolves like it didn’t matter?
2016
Marky E Americans are not comfortable with it. Americans need to send a louder message to congress members. We need to pass this on. My friend.
Since WWI America has betrayed the Kurds 8 times by now, That is how comfortable America has become with throwing Allies to the wolves. A small read. https://theintercept.com/2019/10/07/kurds-syria-turkey-trump-betrayal/
Since always read history
Remind me again… How long did it take the US to help their allies (Britain) after the Nazi’s invaded Poland?
As America sat back, and made 100″s of millions of dollars, while 10″s of thousands fought and died…
Thanks Bush klan! Now we can thank the orange turd for not finishing what we started yet again.
The sequel… The Resurgence of ISIS: The Phone Call That Upended All Efforts To Stop Terror For Short Term Political Gains
Thousands of Kurds died fighting ISIS alongside our troops, and this is how Trump repays them. Traitor Trump has no honor.
Logan McLean The only people dumber than the great orange turd voted for him. Today we call them traitors. Bush is the reason we have ISIS in the first place. #whining
@Logan McLean with Trump’s asinine move, they’ll make a comeback. You think the Kurds are going to keep the imprisoned ISIS captives in prison while they also have to fight Turkey? Use your head.
Logan McLean man you are stupid, abandoning Kurdish allies will only help the bad guys.
We should have let Sadam stay in power.
I don’t believe any of these people who are lying about their involvement. Trump’s going to be remembered as the man who betrayed the Kurds. Send him to the front line.
This is absolutely disgusting
thanks to the chosen one, stable genius for also beeing a coward and breaking american words to the kurds
If these guys ever learned how to hold a gun we’d really be in for it.
Hahaha
God Have Mercy on helpless victims.
Gallant people my salute to them .. specifically those women… hat off. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I’ve had a keen interest in the Kurds since I heard Christopher Hitchens speak about how disenfranchised they are, and the unfortunate history they’ve been subjected to, mainly at the direction of Saddam Hussein :/
I’d sure like to know why my previous comment got scrubbed.
I have NO sympathy for any of these people who joined ISIS. They meet the legal definition of traitors and should be treated as such. Not a single one should be allowed back in the US except in shackles. George W Bush created ISIS. The Kurds defeated ISIS. What we are doing to the Kurds now is absolutely criminal. If anything, we should be fighting with them AGAINST Turkey.
trump is a traitor to America, our allies and the Kurds! I loathe this evil man
Why would any of our “Allies” believe anything that comes from the White House, when we abandon them at Trump’s will?
Howard Pavane said the same about the last two presidents
Not surprised countries don’t want them back. Traitor’s rot on their bed
Democrats LOVE isis 😍
The black dude with the beard has to be brainwashed, come on now seriously?
ISIS is and will always be a joke. They never accomplished anything even at the height of their power. They are just a boogeyman that was convenient at the time.
