Obviously Canada is less committed to the alliance based on defence spending goals, agreed to by NATO long before Trump became president. Trump was never going to play chess...because that's how things got the way they are. Checkers cuts through all the BS. Yeah like handing syria over to russia. Keep playing checkers like that and see when russia calls checkmate. Trump has really rubbed me the wrong way with the way he talks about Canada and how NATO is "useless" in his opinion. Case in point: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/www.mtlblog.com/amp/the-trump-administration-is-officially-calling-canada-a-national-security-threat And of course, who could forget this one: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/nationalpost.com/news/canada/didnt-you-guys-burn-down-the-white-house-trump-uses-war-of-1812-to-justify-canada-as-security-threat/amp The stupidity of his accusation is mind boggling and laughable considering his claims to be a "genius" and yet shows little knowledge of american history, let alone world history. As for NATO: https://m.dw.com/en/donald-trump-on-nato-top-quotes/g-44588734 Does a person who calls an alliance obsolete and useless, and yet complains about its lack of spending sound sane to you?

Stopped CF-18 and support missions and cut off military aid to Kurds. Refugees are Canada's substitute for defence spending. If you won't defend Syria from Russia, don't expect Trump to do it either. Quote Does a person who call an alliance obsolete and useless, and yet complains about its lack of spending sound sane to you? Yes...that sounds very consistent. NATO was created to keep the Soviet Union out, keep the Americans in, and keep the Germans down. There is no credible argument against Trump on NATO as long as the deadbeats like Canada refuse to pony up. Go fight Putin if you want....on your peso.

First of all there was no attack by the Turks until trump betrayed the Kurds.It was a relatively stable area with Kurds and American picking off and locking up the odd isis members. As well as guarding over 10,000 isis prisoners. No hot war, a few American troops backed by the might of the military prevented turkey from attacking and Russia from getting a foothold in the Middle East. There is no better use for a military than to prevent war. Acting as a deterrent to war is when you know the military is operating at its finest, So not only did you betray the Kurds who already sacrificed over 11,000 lives helping you You allowed isis terrorists to escape You empowered Russia ,Iran and Syria I doubt there has ever been a worse foreign policy decision not to mention in humane,despicable betrayal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannucklehead Posted October 24, 2019 Report Share Posted October 24, 2019 But analysts and politicians said Trump declared victory for a crisis along the border of Turkey and Syria that was arguably of his own making, while underplaying the reality that he has strengthened the hand of Russia. Critics also say the move will roll back advances made by US-led forces in the fight against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL or ISIS) group. The president also still has work to do to repair the political damage he has done within his own base among those who say he abandoned the Kurds, longtime US allies who fought side-by-side with American forces to beat back ISIL in northeast Syria. Yeah they are clueless and moronic in comparison to trumps "genius". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonsense...the Kurdish rebels have been Turkey's violent foes long before Trump. See "Kurdistan". If a few troops are so important, then why did Canada remove assets and military aid ? Answer: the darling Kurds went rogue in Iraqi oil fields. So why does Canada or other EU nations get a pass on Syria ? Quote There is no better use for a military than to prevent war.

It's easy to forget we footed the bill to rebuild the Iraqi army after it crumbled when ISIS crossed into Iraq.

WestCanMan Posted October 25, 2019 Report Share Posted October 25, 2019 3 hours ago, Cannucklehead said: It's a game, like chess. Trump is just too busy playing checkers. Lol. Trump won the election. Got rid of islamic state. Got his tax cuts passed. Repealed the individual mandate penalty. Got American troops out of war zones. Turkey announced a permanent cease-fire. Beat the collusion crap. Beat the obstruction crap. Got two SCJs appointed. Stood up to China on trade yet US exports are up by $60 billion. Got out of the Paris Climate Accord. Got NATO allies to increase spending by $70B/year. Middle-class take-home pay is up by $6,000 per year after less than 3 years (Obama - $1K after 8 years). Lowest unemployment rate ever. Dow Jones 34% higher than ever before. Veterans care is far better than ever before. Moved the Embassy to Jerusalem. Built more wall. I wish our PM could play checkers. He paid a terrorist $10M. Let islamic state terrorists (he called them "fighters") walk free here to "be a powerful voice against radicalization". Killed $135 Billion in investment in Alberta. 150,000 jobs lost in Alberta. Got caught in 4 ethics violations. Created a law to allow the criminal entity known as SNC (the company that bribed a Liberal politician $2.3M just for a $127M bridge contract) access to federal contracts. Put undue pressure on the AG to use his DPA law for SNC (the same company I just mentioned had bribed a Liberal politician $2.3M just for a $127M bridge contract). Fired the AG for not using his DPA law on behalf of SNC (the company that I mentioned a couple of times bribed a Liberal politician $2.3M just for a $127M bridge contract). Blocked the RCMP from investigating SNC properly (did I mention that they bribed a Liberal politician $2.3M just for a $127M bridge contract, and that Trudeau has offshore tax haven accounts and SNC has overseas affiliates?). Called the Japanese President Chinese. Twice. Brought a terrorist to dinner in India. Blamed India. Switched his family from plastic water bottles to paper, uh plastic, uh paper water uh box thingies. Gave $1.4 Billion of our taxpayer dollars to CBC and "select" media outlets to help his re-election campaign. Sent out a tweet that our borders were open and then said that it wasn't his fault that so many people crossed. Jumped on the obviously fake hijab hoax like a Leftist on a Soylent Green Bar and denigrated Canadians for their racist behaviour. Re-denigrated (new word) Canadians after he found out that the hijab hoax was fake. Refused to condemn a hate rally in Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
