re: US & Israel to use Kurdish fighters as ground troops in Iran

The Kurds are like the simpy guy best friend that does everything for a woman who gives him literally nothing in return. She abuses him and clearly has zero romantic interest in him, but he keeps coming back thinking this time she’s gonna give him a romantic relationship (nation state).

Some were paid off. Some were murdered. Some are afraid of being murdered.
Yep. The Turks always play both sides and try to get something in exchange for staying out of every conflict.

It’s gone tits up for the Kurds every single time, too.
They have the largest standing army in the West Asia, are a NATO member, and border Iran. In addition, the regime in Syria is largely a Turkish puppet. They could certainly cause some problems.

I saw him speak at a convention once. Dude was clearly drunk off his arse, and was very personable and funny off the cuff. I would definitely have a beer with him, but I would not consider voting for him over a reasonable republican alternative.

Unless they struck a deal with Erdrogen, Turkey is likely not going to be happy. The last thing they want is armed Kurds building a state on their border.
Spain’s government is openly pro immigration. They are encouraging migrants from the Muslim World to come there to work because “we don’t have enough workers” while their youth unemployment is approaching 30%.
I am fatigued at protecting every nation that isn’t the United States of America.
Yep. In fact, the more you dig, the less democratic the Canadian system really is. Their system for determining candidates for MP elections is incredibly opaque and easy to rig by the parties.
No, no it wasn’t. We could have fixed so much more stuff in 2020-2024.

Wouldn’t that be a massive boon to Louisiana’s economy?
Conspiracy theorists have been batting a much higher average than the media ever since Snowden revealed the truth that the CIA and NSA 100% were spying on citizens without warrants through all if their internet connected devices.

I agree.
I am just not confident that this will be the result of our actions.
re: Iran women taking off hijabs- can it be real?

It’s a difference in degrees. It would be akin to if members of Delta Force owned every utility, every grocery store, every factory, every farm, everything. Literally, there is nothing recognizable as a private sector in Iran.
In the U.S., we still have a competitive economy. While the CIA certainly has significant influence over the largest corporations, you can still start a business. You can make stuff. That is not how Iran works at all.

China produces a significant amount of oil, but it’s not enough to meet their domestic demand.
I wouldn’t describe myself as wholly against the strikes, but I am super skeptical of what the endgame is going to be and the costs associated with getting there both in money and American lives.
