Ponder This

While I am somewhat sympathetic to the Kurds, because they've gotten a pretty raw deal since before the Ottomans rolled over their patch...

I am not blinded to the idea that they're only friendly to us because we're shouldering a large part of the burden in the form of air support.

When they realize that we're not paving the way to an independent Kurdistan, they will turn on us like snakes.

Which brings us to the point to ponder:

OK, we stay in Syria.

What if we win?

What's the plan for that?

Because I don't like shedding blood for a place to hand it back to the same idiots who fucked it up so bad we had to come in and shed blood for it.  That was and is the plan in Iraq and Afghanistan.  That was the the plan for Vietnam.

We didn't use this plan for Japan.
