Yes and No. The yes is, yes, I do care that they fought with the US against ISIS. The no is, sometimes our "partners" against enemies end up being as bad as the enemies. I don't know enough about the Kurds to know in this case- they have some factions I've read about that sound just as bad as ISIS- they just don't have their guns turned at us, yet.

But what I do know is, I don't want Putin happy. And Putin will be happy with our pull out- so it's the wrong thing to do right now.
