The kurds lost their homeland in Syria which they fought for with US forces in the battle agaist Isis, losing 11 thousand of their men and women. Tonight they were sold out by Trump who says he saved millions of lives. It will be remembered by the kurds as the greatest betrayal.

Once upon a time we lavished an extraordinary amount of money and equipment on an ally that sacrificed more blood in our cause than anyone else, ever, and yet weirdly after World War II no one felt we had a sacred obligation to assist the Soviet Union from now on.

Stalin fought the Germans for the same the Kurds fought ISIS: it was in both of their self interests to fight nearby aggressors. They weren't doing us a favor, and after our common enemy was defeated in neither case were we required to swear eternal loyalty to them.
