The no is, sometimes our "partners" against enemies end up being as bad as the enemies.


Absolutely, its a modern human tragedy.

The Kurds are complicated-tribal too. Like we see in ALL the wars with Muslim players from the middle east all the way to Myanmar. Indonesia and Africa too.

That's my point.

But fire, ready, aim Trump has not learned lessons from history.

The best strategy for the US would be HUMANITARIAN to alleviate the suffering -- and advancing diplomacy plus treaties. Food and hospitals, not bombs.

Not an easy path. As soon as east-and-west liberal modernists advocate women's rights and education, it makes enemies and conflict among our "friends."

Shit soup for sure, no matter who we choose to partner with.
