  1. Wait, that means there’s really 4 times as many troops in Syria.

  2. Probably the most morally correct thing USA is doing currently is actually sticking by their Kurdish allies against islamist/turkish invasion

    r/NESyria

  3. USA USA USA, it’s probably a lot more if you count the drones and high altitude aircraft.

  4. That’s 10 times less than should have been there all along. The atrocities committed against innocent civilians have been going on for over 10 years.

  5. And according to Kamala none of them are in a combat zone

  6. For the freedom and democracy i guess. Overthrowing 1 dictator to install “rebels” just to label them as global terrorists again. God they really must think the world is just as naive and bafoon like Trump voters!

  7. And all three would like to keep it that way, thank you very much.

  8. So… Kamala’s lie about troops not being in a war zone is even worse than we already knew? Imagine that.

  9. people really judge the us based on “morality” of geopolitical logistics and millitary operations when most emphasis of morality comes from intent.

    as in, the us obviously does not decide to act in the name of “morals” here and there, and “greed” here and there. it’s all for whatever is most self benefiting. the intent of this is no different than the intent of invading iraq or aiding israel. it’s all the same.

  10. Anyone who can get past the paywall have the exact number? Saying “twice” the amount can be misleading. Like 2 is twice as many as 1 and that’s not a lot more

  11. Government’s don’t just magically disappear over the weekend lol

    Although the ends justify the means
