The Hungarian uprising was a much worse travesty. People get over it, the one's that live anyhow.

The CIA promised to provide everything they needed. Whoops.

Mitch McConnell: Withdrawing from Syria is a grave mistake

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...732_story.html

No kidding, Mitch! Time to remove Putin’s asset from the Oval Office, now, before he causes more damage.

But you don't really believe he's Putin asset, do you ? You said the following.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...4aa_story.html

Years-long nothingburger. Will it finally shut up the idiot conspiracies? Unlikely. The Whells of the world are incredibly stupid.

Unquote.

I'm trying to track this. You can reference the conspiracy theories as being real to support an assertion, but they're just bullshit.

So you seriously believe Putin DOESN’T have kompromat on Donny? How then, do you explain Donny’s complete subservience to Putin?

No.

I stated previously that someone definitely has kompromat on Donny.

No doubt it's a deusy, too. Black leather harness, and all the regalia.

Putin, eh ?

I bet somebody closer to home has the goods on him, too.

The DIA and/or CIA.

Russia reaps windfalls of Trump’s chaos
Moscow would readily agree that US president is the best in history

https://www.ft.com/content/9aa07c78-...e-4367d8281195

Quote:

It is hard to imagine a better public relations coup for Vladimir Putin than America’s whirlwind exit from northern Syria. Russian television cameras lingered over “emergency exit” signs and half-eaten meals in the evacuated US bases. The Kurds, America’s most loyal regional ally, quickly switched their fealty to Russia. Bashar al-Assad can now cement his control over Syria, while Turkey is moving closer to Russia (and nearer to quitting Nato). In chess terms, Mr Trump has just handed Mr Putin a bishop. The Kurds are mere pawns.

It's the way Trump shifted his rhetoric on Iran 180*.

He was trash talking them fairly regularly about how we needed to blow them up, everything else. Until he withdrew the troops from Syria and sent them to Saudi Arabia. Then he started saying, "We don't want a war with Iran".

That was "The Storm" he alluded to months ago, a major war in the Middle East.

Even if he's impeach, Pence would follow suit.

The Kurd's refusal to retreat is not about the fight against ISIS.

They want turf. They want to establish a new border for Kurdistan.

The USA never promised them they could do that. It was not the mission.

They need to retreat back into Iraq. They can continue their fight there.
