...and Turkey can use those Su-57 Russian fighters it wants to buy form their "good friend " as Vlad says, and may have to resort to using that S-400 air defense system it already bought from Russia........I don't think so. If Russians are blustering that they want to use the Kurds and Syrians against Turks - then whatever Trump did was aimed at them (the Russians). If we can get our troops out - heck they already slapped serious Russian and IRG ass- and still continue to extend our will - I say do it and applaud.

MontanaMarine - I agree- all the hand wringing and teeth gnashing is being done by folks who honestly just can't know what the hell is truly going on over there.


When a country is well governed, poverty and a mean condition are something to be ashamed of. When a country is ill governed, riches and honors are something to be ashamed of
