Trump: "We may be in the process of leaving Syria, but in no way have we Abandoned the Kurds, who are special people and wonderful fighters. Likewise our relationship with Turkey, a NATO and Trading partner, has been very good.

Trump is an idiot and a liar. Turkey is killing them as we speak.

Military Leaders Fear They've Seen This Before. It Ended in the Iraq War

The last time the United States abandoned allies in the Middle East, military officials say, it helped lead to the Iraq War.

Now, almost 30 years later, President Donald Trump has pulled U.S. special forces and support troops away from Kurdish allies in northern Syria, easing the way for Turkey's promised offensive, which began on Wednesday.

At the end of the Persian Gulf War, the United States' refusal to aid a rebellion it encouraged in Iraq allowed Saddam Hussein to brutally crush the insurgents, leaving him in power and U.S. allies on the ground alienated and slaughtered by the thousands.

Now, with the Kurds potentially facing a similar fate, a Pentagon official said anger within the military was deeper than at any other point in Trump's tenure as commander in chief.

That is in part because U.S. military officials personally know the Kurds they have been fighting alongside. They consider them friends and even, in some cases, brothers in arms. While the Kurds may not have been with the Americans in Normandy, as Trump curiously noted on Wednesday, neither were the U.S. service members who are now in Iraq and Syria.
