We didn't need to go to war to protect them.
Our very presence there was protecting them, until Trump told Ergogan that he would pull back our troops and gave him the green light to move in and slaughter them.

Let's pretend this talking point inspired pabulum is truthy - that Turkey was gonna let an insurgency build and fester on its border because a couple of dozen US troops were hanged around PKK's neck as human shields.

How long should we have used our troops as human shields to prolong wall street's assault on Syrians - in your estimaton?

You say that 11,000 Kurds died fighting our other proxy. Let's grant the accuracy of that claim, as well. I didn;t count them, but I highly doubt the MSM would ever lie.

What percentage of casualties in wall street's assault on Syria would that amount to? Lessee - 11,000 divided by 500,000..

carry the ought...

carry the other ought...

I'm bluffing - I can't do longform division. Lemme get a cackle later.

Okay, I get 2.2 percent, if I carried the oughts properly.

Now let's do ANOTHER count - the number of Christians in Syria. Lessee - 10% of 21 million is,,, carry the ought... over 2 million.

That is the number of people with a target on their head if the war your support prolonging goes against Bashar Assad, their protector from muslim extremists. I mean, "moderate rebels."

11,000 kurds vs. two million Syrian Christians... carry the ought.. ought.. you ought... to get a clue.
