Make me wonder a bit, of all the residents, factions in the neighborhood over there. The Kurds are the one of the most friendly towards the west if not the most. Much liken to Israel all they want is a homeland to call there own. There in lies the rub, other bigger neighbors want and claim the same parcel of land. (oil)

Giuliani was always a fraud. Just ask the FDNY
As the image of “America’s Mayor” was being rehabbed, 9/11 families saw how his malfeasance killed their loved ones

Dumbfuquery on parade. GOP lawmaker wishes the US Navy a happy birthday with a photo of a Russian battle cruiser. No, it wasn't Matt Gaetz.

Americans cannot be there forever. The Kurds will have to make adjustments with people who live in the neighborhood. Minorities in Syria have generally look to Assad.

Just like the Israelis?
Should we let them go it alone too?

Look for friendly neighbors for support?

The Israelis can now go it alone.

Bibi has been using the US for local elections.

BTW Israel is the only nuke power in the region.

Liz Cheney tried to blame the Syria debacle on impeachment

Ridiculous!

Justice Department labels Devin Nunes’ claim on Russia a conspiracy theory

https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/cri...235924767.html

Won’t stop Nunes and Meadows from their lunatic rants, but at least Barr’s DOJ still has some semblance of normalcy. How long until Barr suppresses the facts on this, though?

The CEO of Dick's, which banned AR-15 style rifles last year, says he wishes Sen. Mitch McConnell would have the 'guts' to address gun reform

https://www.businessinsider.com/dick...ontrol-2019-10

Good to see CEOs applying pressure on Moscow Mitch. He definitely won’t listen to voters, who overwhelmingly support the bipartisan House bill. Maybe he’ll listen if more CEOs speak out.
