Syria-Turkey Ceasefire

[ParsleyTea]

Hope the Syria ceasefire works out for the best.

VP Pence is a busy guy. He was staying just a mile from my place a few days ago.

This is bullchit. I was hoping for weeks of dead children being paraded on CNN. Quick, some from the CIA needs to launch a "gas attack" to get the Orange Man back in.

They can always re-run some old footage or get some footage from a shooting range or something.

It's not like lefties can tell the difference...

Wonder how media will spin this as a negative. Resident libs waiting for their programming.

Still waiting for talking points from central command.

Just a question. Did Turkey come to a ceasefire bc of this letter from 8 days ago or bc they accomplished what they wanted in regards to the border? It doesn’t seem likely that the Oct 8 letter was the reason for the Oct 17 ceasefire when the letter was sent before/right around when Turkey was invading.

They agreed because we were lobbying heavy sanctions on them.

my guess is that letter was sent preemtive and Pence and Pompeo gave ergodan the details of what will happen if they accept or decline ceasfire.

If Forest Gump can get rich and win at ping pong then Donald Trump can pull out a win sometimes, too.

None of this stuff takes any great genius anyways. I was pushing this solution (use Turkey to force Kurds back to Damascus and end the war) back in 2018, after Trump's 2nd attempt to withdraw from Syria. The powers that be managed to reverse the withdrawal at that time (2018) so we didn't see this scenario play out. But it wasn't like this was some crazy surprise.

What played out this week was the serious, realistic solution to ending the Syrian civil war that had already been talked about last year extensively. We've had this exit strategy available for awhile. This is the best possible outcome for Syria, Europe and the United States, actually.

If it's so easy, then why did Obama fuk up so badly

Honestly if I was him I'd push even more and get Turkey even more sactioned.

Dude gets 10% more votes everytime we get sanctioned.

my guess is that we (Trump) already knew there was going to be a cease fire. He sent the letter to make the libs go all in attacking trump and calling him an idiot (like the dumb libs in this thread). then boom, release that there has in fact been a cease fire and the libs exposed even more bigly for their incurable TDS.

The military industrial complex was profiting from the way. Obama had no interest in ending it.

Not just Left, but war mongering Right too.

Whoa....Whoa...Whoa....watch the fuk out guys we have a new world leader in the making.

True, but that's always been the narrative, "Right is for war, Left is for peace/love/understanding" yada yada…

It's just great to see the POTUS expose liberal hypocrisy at every turn on almost every issue

[dabbmw2002]

Just heard from Mitt Romney, God I despise that phony coksucker.

[ispy]

Current talking point from the left is that Trump orchestrated this whole thing to cause a cease fire to become neccessary. Yet they wont mention the troops that dont have to be in a pointless conflict. Apparently Trump gave a greenlight to the invasion. **** out of here.

the arsonist put the fire out. whoop dee doo!

I wonder how this would look through CNN glasses lol.

[Tamorlane]

republicans have gone soft on war

19th century: England
20th century: America
21st century: China/Russia Alliance

Trump sent troops to Saudi Arabia because they are paying for them. lmao

republicans are weaker than their transgender counterparts

Lmao at the very next response to James's post.

Because he's a b*tch. Obama bent over for the usual suspects (military industrial complex, neocon\Jew lobby, Saudi lobby, pressure from chicken hawks in both parties, etc). I don't think he wanted to be in Syria either, but he was unwilling to endure the withering barrage from the entire media and political class that he knew would ensue. Trump, on the other hand, loves a good sh*tstorm.

This is often a negative trait, but not in this case.

Anyway Trump managed to pull out in a way that saves face for everyone, ensures the Kurds don't get genocided, and ensures ISIS cannot return. Kurd and ISIS issues are addressed at no cost to ourselves, and the mass killing can finally end. How can you really complain?

The Establishment foreign policy makers are consistently wrong in their analysis and prognostications. Its amazing that anyone takes anything they say seriously.
